I loved this whimsical fairytale! Amazing writing and prose with great world building that had me feel transported.

Nocturne, by Alyssa Wees, is a fever-dream fairytale of a book, and I loved it!
The setting, 1930’s Chicago, was delicious, and the world building surrounding it was so complete and magical—I can’t wait to delve back in.
The main character, Prima Ballerina Grace, was a delight, and I loved watching her navigate depression-era Little Sicily—almost as much as I loved the delectable twist at the end of the book!
4/5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks very much to Del Rey and NetGalley for the ARC. All opinions are my own.

Nocturne was an absolute beautiful fairytale that I couldn’t stop reading. Grace was such a likeable MC and I couldn’t stop myself from rooting for her. This story is beautifully woven with its detailed descriptions of places that I truly felt THERE. The twist at the end I did not see coming and the ending was very satisfying!
