First Position | Melissa Brayden
14 posts | 6 read | 48 to read
Anastasia Mikhelson is the rising star of the New York City Ballet. Shes sacrificed creature comforts, a social life, as well as her own physical well-being for perfection in dance. Even her reputation as The Ice Queen doesnt faze her. Though Anas at the peak of her career, competition from a new and noteworthy dancer puts all shes worked for in jeopardy. While Natalie Frederico has shown herself to be a prodigy when it comes to ballet, she much prefers modern dance and living on her own terms. Life is too short for anything else. However, when the opportunity to dance with the New York City Ballet is thrust upon her, its not like she could say no. Dealing with the companys uptight lead is another story, however. When the two are forced to work side-by-side, sparks begin to fly onstage and off.

The green-eyed monster is making our protagonist petty. 😂

KilgoreTrout Guilty 🙄 8y
hufflepuff_librarian Also guilty. 🙄🙊 But, I do work with 3rd-5th grader, so I feel like that should excuse me from using any slang I am actually too old to use. 😂 8y

Mimi28 I've had this book out from the library forever and still haven't read it. I'm interested to see what you think 😊👍 8y
WanderingBookaneer @Mimi28 : So far—I'm about halfway through—it has everything you expect, and therefore want, in a romance. 8y
Mimi28 It's a romance?! Awesome! I was looking for something like that because One Hundred Nights of Hero, the graphic novel I am reading now is all about deceiving a man, and I spent time with my boyfriend yesterday and didn't want to read anything like that. I'm so moody and picky, lol. I think I'll switch between both. Thanks! ❤️👍📚😻 8y

Sometimes one feels like reading a cheesy novel.

Some library books that are all on my ever-growing TBR I know you can't see all the titles but my main point was to get Nikie ( brown) Taz (grey) and Ozzie ( b&w) all in one pic. No, I still haven't finished Nimona or Furiously Happy or even started Bernadette yet, but I was able to renew them all and with all my depression and anxiety issues my concentration is shot. My cats and my bed, and my mom and my boyfriend and you guys comfort me ❤️thanks

Mimi28 And the books comfort me too! #catsoflitsy #petsoflitsy 8y
Mimi28 Oh and that's Batman from a Happy Meal under the books. Also please excuse my messy bed 📚👍😎 8y

I literally had my breath taken away today as I was *this* close to the dancers at the amazing ballet The Dreamers Never Leave You by the National Ballet. I can't adequately put into words the way I responded to the depth of emotion - the loneliness and longing - conveyed by the dancers.

While it meant limited reading time today, I came home to find this book as one of the first Litsy updates in my feed and immediately added it to my TBR.

I am in to stories about prima ballerinas who are in to each other! Also: one of the heroines has a name that is frighteningly similar to mine. It's a little disconcerting! #lesbian #romance #ballet #dancing

If you like Melissa Brayden's books, then I definitely suggest you read First Position. Among one of my favourite books by this author.

Natalie's personality is infectious meanwhile you grow to love the complex personality of Anastasia.
