Description
Perfect for fans of Becky Albertalli and Nina LaCour, this romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Robin Talley has something for everyone: backstage rendezvous, deadly props, and a seemingly insurmountable obstacle to True Love.
Melody McIntyre, stage manager extraordinaire, has a plan for everything.
What she doesn’t have? Success with love. Every time she falls for someone during a school performance, both the romance and the show end in catastrophe. So, Mel swears off any entanglements until their upcoming production of Les Mis is over.
Of course, Mel didn’t count on Odile Rose, rising star in the acting world, auditioning for the spring performance. And she definitely didn’t expect Odile to be sweet and funny, and care as much about the play’s success as Mel.
Which means that Melody McIntyre’s only plan now is trying desperately not to fall in love.

Reviews for "The Shin Lim Magic Set: An Essential Tool for Every Magician"
1. Jessica - 1 star
I was extremely disappointed with the Shin Lim Magic Set. First of all, the instructions were not clear at all. They were poorly written and confusing, making it impossible for me to understand how to perform the tricks. Secondly, the quality of the props included in the set was very low. The cards were flimsy and easily bent, and the gimmicks did not work properly. Overall, this magic set was a waste of money and I would not recommend it to anyone.
2. Brian - 2 stars
I had high expectations for the Shin Lim Magic Set, considering his reputation as a professional magician. However, I was let down by the lackluster tricks included in the set. They were basic and not very impressive. Additionally, the set did not come with any advanced tricks or techniques, making it more suitable for beginners rather than experienced magicians. For the price I paid, I expected more from this magic set.
3. Sarah - 1 star
I found the Shin Lim Magic Set to be a complete letdown. The tricks were outdated and unoriginal, and I felt like I could find better instructions and props online for a much cheaper price. The overall quality of the set was also subpar, with flimsy materials that easily broke or got damaged after minimal use. Save your money and look for other magic sets that offer a better value for your investment. I regret purchasing this one.
