Reviews
"When the new school year starts, Simi finds herself caught between her own hopes and aspirations and the realities of her parents' wishes. Even worse, she confronts the gender inequality that exists in the music industry. There's also the virality of social media, the ardent friendships that are formed in boarding schools, and the petty jealousies and rivalries that manifest in this highly competitive field even if you're a tweenager-not to mention the razzle-dazzle of stardom-all rolled up in one book. Much ado about Bollywood in this glamour-filled story featuring strong characterization." - Kirkus Reviews
