    5-0 out of 5 stars It's not easy not eating.
    This book is a good book about a girl with an eating disorder. This book has a good lesson about eating disorders. Someone who thinks they're big would probably like this book because they can relate to what's going on.

    5-0 out of 5 stars This book has everything--it's amazing
    This is the second book I've read in the series and it's even better than the first. I loved the story about Daly's family facing hard times and how that affected Daly and her eating problem. And then there's the story about Sophy and how she and Carlos might have a thing, or she thinks they do but he doesn't. And of course the dancing's all great--it's like this whole world that you really feel exists. I love these characters!

    5-0 out of 5 stars Behind the glamor, some hard truths about dance
    I love ballet and I always dream of being a ballet dancer though I know I am probably not good enough. I take ballet lessons and envy the girls who are very thin. Until I read this book I never really thought about how unhealthy being too thin can be. I think if Daly's father hadn't lost his job she'd still try to get too thin because she thinks and her teacher thinks she is fat when she isn't. I have a serious crush on Ray. Carlos is cool but Ray is more fun. Everyone should read this book. The kids and the story go on just like a real t.v. soap opera. I am never sure exactly what will happen. And you have to buy the next book to figure it all out. Even if you don't love ballet you will love the story. I already have book three, In the Spotlight and I really love that too. I don't want to give the end of two away so I can't say more. I only wish there were more about Laverne and about the ballroom school too. ... Read more

    5-0 out of 5 stars Spotlights are on "Heart Beats"
    I read all of the "Heart Beats" books. They're great! "In the Spotlight" helps teens, like myself, understand true friendship. Sophy and Inez are friends until Inez is chosen over Sophy in an audition. Then Sophy gets mad atInez. Sophy isn't always as cool and popular as she seems. Some people think she has it all together, but she doesn't. She has the same teenage problems as everyone else. Love, friends, enemies, and family all play a part in her life. I'd encourage you to read this book and the rest of Elizabeth M. Rees' series of "Heart Beats". Once you start reading, you just can't stop!

    5-0 out of 5 stars That spotlight's hot as anything!
    Things really heat up in this thrd volume of the Heart Beats series. Sparks fly between Sophy and Carlos, between Carlos and his parents, between Sophy and Inez, between Inez and Ray, between Inez the person and Inez the ballet dancer coming fully into her own. And then we learn more about the ever-mysterious Cat. How all this can take place in a 250 page book is beyond me, but it doesn't seem as if Rees rushed through things; everything is well-paced and given the space it deserves.

    5-0 out of 5 stars Book Three of this series the best read yet!
    I love this book! The first two books in this series, "Moving as One" and "Body Lines" tell us all about Carlos and Sophy and Inez and Daly and all the other kids at the new dance school Dance Tech. Carlos and Sophy are meant for each other. But they seem to have a hard time getting together--when they do, problems start up. I like these books because these kids are real even if their dance school is not quite believable. Still I'd love to go to a school like theirs. Most of my friends are Latino and I love that one hero and his sister are too. Inez is very interesting. And Carlos is to die for. I hope Sophy realizes this and doesn't miss out on him. I can't wait to read the next book "Latin Nights" Heart Beats is like a real soap opera. It should be on t.v. ... Read more

    Book Description

    Meet the talented young dancers of Dance Tech, a place where you can learn more than just dancing...

    The Dance Café is open for business! With free lessons taught by the Dance Tech students, the hip new place is sure to be a huge success. And Daly can't help thinking the cafe might just offer the perfect recipe to get her relationship with Ray back on track.

    But the first Latin Night at the café turns Daly's dream to dust. She usually doesn't mind Ray dancing with another girl. But his tango with Inez looks anything but professional. And that's nothing compared to what she sees when she stumbles into their private lesson!

    5-0 out of 5 stars The Dance Cafe is open for buisness
    Carlos Vargas is now living with Jan and Peter MacGregor after he ran away. He needs a job to pay for his truck so he can be more independent. Daly announces that her mom will be managing the Beggar's Bean Too, a smaller division of the Beggar's Bean coffee bar. When Carlos hears this, he has a brilliant idea: Why not make this new cafe revolve around dance? So the dance cafe is born. This is an exciting book. Sophy and Carlos have to sneak around to see each other. Peter decides to have Ray partner Inez after their spectacular performance in Street Wear. Daly is jealous and now has to dance with Marco. But that's nothing compared to what Daly sees when she goes to the Dance Cafe one afternoon. I don't want to give away the action. Laverne is responsible for hiring a band, Swing Thing, on opening night. However, a mistake occurs and almost ruins the opening night. Who will save the day? ... Read more

    3-0 out of 5 stars Not For Everyone
    This is only one book of many in this series. Number four was very exciting and got you very attached to the characters. I have to admit number five was not all I had hoped. I focuses a lot on dance and I dont recomend you read it if you have no interest or knowledge of dance. The book tends to forget about some of the problems in book four leaving you wondering what ever happened. I think all in all this boook is good but not for everyone.

    3-0 out of 5 stars Only for Some
    Face the Music is just one book of many in a series called Heart Beats. The series is catchy with interesting caracters that you can relate to. The fourth book leaves you hanging on a cliff just wanting to read the fifth book terribly. I have to admit after I finally got my hands on the book i opened it right away. All in all the book was a good quick read with suspense in lots of places but it wasn't quite as good as the first ones. It also dropped some of the problems from book four. This is a good book but I recomend you read the first few books because they lead up to eachother. Also you might not like this if you have no intrest in dance. ... Read more

    5-0 out of 5 stars I love this whole book, couldn't put it down
    I'm not really one that is into ballet or any dance, but once i read this i couldn't put it down. not just because of the dancing, but because of the romance between Sophy and Carlos, and the other characters. i've already finished the second one. can't wait to finish it. but i think when i am done reading all of it i will kinda miss reading about the characters and see what else could happen...

    5-0 out of 5 stars The romance is as good as the dancing!
    I just read this book and I can't wait to read the next one in the series. The dance schools merging is a great plot, because it throws all these different people together. What I really like is everyone in the book has faults--for all their likeable qualities, there's some way that they mess up or aren't perfect. In other words, it's all about real people, like my friends. I like the stuff with Sophy's family--but the dance sections are even better!

    5-0 out of 5 stars A wonderful book, it's a real page turner.
    I love this book. I couldn't put it down. I was dying to know what happened next. Carlos and Sophy are two of the most intriguing characters I have ever encountered in a young adult novel. They actually have depth and souls. I cared about their problems and about them. I love all the dangling plot threads that will keep me moving through the other books just as quickly. I can't wait to see how everything turns out.

    5-0 out of 5 stars I love CARLOS! and Sophy!
    I love this book. I'm a dancer,too, and I'd love to go to a school like dance tech. Do they also go a regular school and have classes? It would be cool if they just had regular classes for everything at dance tech so they would have more time to dance (I wish I went to a schhol like that!) I am wating for the next book to come in to my bookstore, can't wait to see SOphy and Carlos hook up I hope they do!

    5-0 out of 5 stars perfect dance and romance book for ya girls (and guys)
    what a great idea for a ya book (this is the first of a series), combining the worlds of ballet and salsa, with all the issues teens struggle with --friendship, love, self-regard. Rees has the gift of creating an entirely believable world and characters. Her hero and heroine are terrific--the smolderingly sexy salsa king Carlos and the lovely ballerina Sophie and then making their very different worlds collide. Rees has the wonderful gift of reaching into the hearts of her characters, making their feelings come so honestly alive. In their real lives, all the kids who make up dance tech live at dizzying pace--making mistakes and picking up their lives, breaking up and finding new partners. But the author in creating this world of kids we care about never loses her balance. With the same poise, she balances all the steamy emotions with a real knowledge of the world of dance to book. Readers will adore this book. I know I would have at that age. ... Read more
