It might be difficult to tell from the page count, but this is actually a graphic novel. I took this with me to the gym today, I've been going to the gym regularly for the first time in my life to try to correct some injuries instead of succumbing to surgery and I wanted to try to read while exercising. So I thought I'd bring something easy that didn't require a lot of concentration since they play music in the gym and I normally can't read if I hear music with words, but there was just enough a

In this graphic novel about middle schooler Callie who designs sets for her school’s very elaborate production of the (made up) play “Moon Over Mississippi.” She meets twins Justin, who gets the second lead, and Jesse, who is shy, helps out on the stage crew, but is there during the performance to help out during a middle school emergency. It’s sweet, and I liked the musical theater structure.
She has a nice style and captures the lige a tween/teen well. I look forward to her future books.
Loved it! <3 review TK
