Melody McIntyre is a stage manager for her high school’s theater and she is determined to put on the best plays... to the point where her and her crew rigidly follow all the superstitions... including the newest one which is that Melody is not allowed to date or fall in love with anyone until after their newest play is done. They believe that every time she falls for someone during a school performance, both the romance and the show end up catastrophically. Melody agrees to this new rule... except when Odile Rose, the rising star in the acting world who is back in town, auditions for the play and soon Melody and Odile find themselves falling for each other. Too bad everyone on the crew is determined to keep them apart and more and more things are going wrong, and now Melody is starting to think the curse is real and that she might have to actually break up with Odile, despite her growing feelings. This story is heavy on the theater kids aspect, and filled with theater stuff such as call sheets, emails, planning, schedules, and so forth to add a bit of emersion into the story. It dragged on for a bit and despite being a theater kid myself, I just found it a bit exaggerated and kind of infuriating what Melody was allowing to dictate her own love life and the fact that these superstitions were getting a bit out of hand. I also found Melody to not be that likable as a character, and the only person I actually liked throughout this 400+ story was Odile. She did not deserve what happened to her. All the other characters got on my nerves, especially with how they treated not only each other but also Melody and Odile, and how Melody just never really did anything. She kind of let herself get walked on by her entire crew and it just got to the point where I definitely thought Odile deserved better. I was so excited to read a theater kid rom com with sapphic love interests... but it definitely did not live up to my expectations.
