Ballet Noir by Caroline Miller


A ballet tour through Europe, a famous ballerina that has passed, and a former student of the deceased ballerina makes for an exciting read with the beautiful, descriptive writing of Caroline Miller.

Tagging along and traveling through Europe with the tour group was fun and exciting as we the readers learned about each city the ballet group stopped in.

Tara was the main character who kept seeing and hearing ghosts that turned out to be someone she knew.

The paranormal aspect of the book wasn’t a favorite because I usually do not read paranormal, but Ms. Miller's marvelous writing style and story line that included some romance took over, and the paranormal parts even though they were a large part of the storyline, didn't overpower the book.    


If you enjoy traveling in Europe, a bit of romance, and paranormal, you will enjoy BALLET NOIR.  4/5

I received this book free of charge and without compensation by the author in return for an honest review.

  1. I did NOT realize there was a paranormal aspect to this book! I was put off by the ballet piece because the last two books featuring ballet dancers fell short, but I think this one might erase the experience of the others.

  5. I'm intrigued about these ghosts. I normally don't like storylines with ghosts, but this seems like a good book because I do love ballet.

  6. I'm not too familiar with paranormal either and don't know if I do it justice when I do read it, but it sounds like this one had something more interesting that pulled you in.
