Libraries with large communities of rom-com readers will want to add this to their collections; recommended for fans of Becky Albertalli’s Kate in Waiting and Robin Talley’s The Love Curse of Melody McIntyre.
Recommended. Horror/thrillers are always in high demand in the library, and good ones are hard to find. The throwback cover and the description alone will be enough to get this one circulating.
The cover includes the quote that “magic is for everyone” and this short story collection lives up to it with trans characters at the forefront. A strong purchase for YA shelves.
As expected with a tragedy, love does not always ensure a happy ending, but readers will be invested in the story and characters regardless. Recommended for most teen collections, especially where Greek mythology-inspired fiction is popular.
