The tug-of-war between traditional immigrant parents and their North American born children is very real, but unless the book is set in the 20th century, I felt that this hand was overplayed, particularly for a 22-year-old. Additionally, the characters' lack of computer availability to research information made the book feel dated. Having said that, the segments that dealt with dance seemed quite smoothly written - although the likelihood that an inadequate receptionist could become a professional dance instructor was a bit exaggerated. It is , however a Cinderella story for Charlie. As for Lisa, not so lucky. I enjoyed the story. The romance plot was well choreographed, the sub-score with Ryan and his boxing mates was offbeat, and a (mostly) happy ending is fine.
