Blackout

"Ugh this was so refreshing. And cute. And brilliant. Did i mention refreshing? So many poc main characters who were falling in love without actively fighting the powers and battling establishments. Just sweet, normal, relatable love. I loved it."

"Beautifully written. I love how the authors made each of their stories wonderfully unique but seamlessly connected. This was a fun, refreshing read filled with diversity and a little something for everyone. "

"Loved the concept of different authors writing intersecting parts of a larger story."

"I just finished reading girl in pieces a week ago......good read couldn't put it down. I'm reading this one and it's good"

"definitely I must betray you by Ruta Sepetys!"

"I already thought it was gonna be good, but whew it blew me right out the water"

"I'm not really into romance novels but this was good! I like short stories, especially when they are interlinked. It was nice to see each individual writer's writing style. I honestly want to read more from all of these authors. <br/><br/>This YA novel is follows 6 stories during a blackout in NYC. I did enjoy the different representation, we didn't just see 6 black straight couples, there was LQBTQ+ representation as well. My favorite story was the one written by Nic Stone. <br/><br/>I did have to keep reminding myself that the characters were kids. Some of them were so annoying but they're teenagers so they'll be annoying to me. I usually find characters in YA romance novels almost unbearable but will look past it because I kind of expect teens to be like that in real life about love. <br/><br/>All in all, it was a cute story and quick read!"

"Yes to all of these comments! I've been looking for a similar, feel-good read with a diverse set of characters. Any recommendations? "

"Such a great anthology. Multiple characters that i fell in love with alot of cheesy romance moments that had me gushing i definitely recommend. "

"One of my top reads this year! Couldn't turn the pages fast enough!"
