My Thoughts on Into the Spotlight

First, the cover is awesome and definitely made me want to read the book.  When it arrived in the mail it got put on the top of the to-be-read stack.  

This is a cute YA fiction novel.  It has a nice bit of romance but also some mystery which is fun to read through.  The book flows quickly and I found it a joy to read.  After I finished the book it quickly disappeared into my teenager’s room where they took turns reading it.  

Into the Spotlight was previously written under the title An Unexpected Role, however, I had not read it before.  

I have to admit it made me want to visit the coastal islands.  I’ve never been to them but now I really want to!  The book did a great job describing them.  I loved the characters. 

If you’ve got a bit of time I recommend you find a copy of this book and give it a read.
