All of those authors names is just like a beacon calling, “read me!” I don’t normally read anthologies, but with these huge names I totally plan to! And I read Let it Snow which was a holiday anthology and liked it, so maybe I have a thing for holiday short stories?! Anyway, great pick this week! 🙂

These are pretty much authors with big names in the YA genre so I’m pretty excited and maybe if you get to read their short stories in this anthology, you might want to check out their full-length works as well. 🙂
