February 2013 marks the release of two very different YA novels that are both set around the world of ballet. Dance of Shadows by Yelena Black is a paranormal mystery set in a high-pressure, elite dance academy environment while Dancing in the Dark by Robyn Bavati is a contemporary novel set in the ultra-conservative Haredi Jewish community.

Read on to see which novel wins this ballet-based showdown! Dance of Shadows [ Read More of this Review ]
