Title: Apollo's Angels: A History of Ballet
Author: Jennifer Homans
How Long It's Been a TBR: At least 3 years
Why It's a TBR: I love ballet. In middle and high school, I took ballet classes. I was never any good, but I enjoyed the art form and I still find myself standing in fifth position or pointing my toes. I also enjoy attending the ballet to see beauty in action. There is something about the grace and storytelling through movement that draws me in. Ballet has a long and intriguing history. When I saw that this book was published, I knew I would read it one day.
Chance I Read It Soon: I'm going to say not very high. I can't wait to read this book but it's a doorstopper and I find it a touch intimidating to read such a long non-fiction work.
