Book Summary
All it takes to rewrite the rules is a little fresh ink
in this remarkable YA anthology from thirteen of the most
recognizable, diverse authors writing today including Nicola
Yoon, Jason Reynolds, Melissa de la Cruz, and many more, and
published in partnership with We Need Diverse Books. This
collection features ten short stories, a graphic short
story, and a one-act play from Walter Dean Myers never
before in-print. It will give readers the opportunity to
discover how the next chapter is up to them.
"I
absolutely love this mix of established and newer talents,
and I'm really intrigued and excited by the mixed
formats."—BookRiot
Careful—you are holding fresh
ink. And not hot-off-the-press, still-drying-in-your-hands
ink. Instead, you are holding twelve stories with endings
that are still being written—whose next chapters are up to
you.
Because these stories are meant to be read. And
shared.
Thirteen of the most accomplished YA authors
deliver a label-defying anthology that includes ten short
stories, a graphic novel, and a one-act play about topics
like gentrification, acceptance, untimely death, coming out,
and poverty and ranging in genre from contemporary realistic
fiction to adventure and romance. This collection will
inspire you to break conventions, bend the rules, and color
outside the lines. All you need is fresh ink.
