Once I read Waiting for Nick, I couldn’t not start Considering Kate – NR and her Stanislaski series is just much too addictive. Considering Kate wasn’t what I expected (though I didn’t know what to expect) but all in all, it was a brilliant way to round off what is arguably NR’s most consistently excellent series.
At twenty-five and still in her
prime, Kate has decided that it’s time to retire from the stage and return home
to open up her own ballet school. It’s a difficult decision to make, especially
since she’s still so young, but years of endless rehearsals, performances,
travelling and making small talk with those in the arts and culture circles has
made Kate weary and she longs for a family and life of her own in the small
town where she grew up. An old building in the area has recently gone on the
market and while neglected and in need of serious refurbishment, it’s the right
place for what Kate wants; and what Kate wants, she gets.
