Mina Rahman is ready to get away from New York, from her emotionally abusive parents, to her dream school in California. A Show for Two was a sweet story of discovering what home truly is and the people who make up that home. A famous actor enrolls at the protagonist’s school as an undercover student? That just sounds like so much fun, and I really enjoyed this book. I’ve been obsessed with the idea of this book ever since the premise was revealed. Overall, I could not rave about this book enough and I will definitely checking out more by this author! I'm not saying it's not realistic, because let's be honest, teenagers swear like their lives depend on it (I know because I used to), but reading about it and having it be so prominent felt a little jarring at times. Not to mention the abundance of cussing that all of the characters did. I'm not a fan of pop culture references in books and although it can make a story feel more realistic when a book mentions my favourite band (and not only that, but my favourite member of that band?), but it's something that has always bothered me in books. My only criticism of this was the writing style of the author, which is very minor compared to my love of this story. And the ENDING!!!! I can't say enough about the end of this book!!!! It was perfect and exactly what it needed to be for this story. ![]() There was purpose and intent and I loved it. I loved how the author portrayed each and every interaction that Mina had with everyone. Not only am I talking about the obvious romance, but I'm talking about friendships, siblings, parents, community, etc. I thought the pacing was wonderful and the plot flowed extremely well from point A to point B.Ī big theme in this book was relationships and let me tell you, they were done brilliantly. Obviously, New York City is one of my favourite places on this planet, to visit, and to read about so setting this not just in the heart of New York City, but in the different boroughs was unmatched. #Arc z vibe fullThe entire film club at Mina's school is full of a diverse cast of characters and I was here for it. Rosie is the sweet lil lesbian friend who has curly, unruly red hair and a fiery attitude to match. (are we sensing a pattern?) Emmitt is an English "bad boy" with a secret soft side which is TO. Anam, Mina's sister, is kind, smart, strong, determined, etc. She is everything that I look for in a female protagonist. Mina is strong, determined, intelligent, etc. ![]() We'll start with a deep-dive on the characters. What Mina doesn't realize is that along the way, she is not only going to build unbreakable bonds, but she is also going to find herself. #Arc z vibe movieHer one-way ticket is hingeing on a win from the Golden Ivy Movie Festival. We follow Mina, a senior in high school, who is determined to get into USC and get the heck away from New York. Wow, where do I begin? This book was incredible. ![]() Thank you NetGalley for an e-arc of this book in exchange for an honest review ![]()
