What I love about anthologies is that there is something for everyone. I don’t know that every story is supposed to hit you the same way and this is no exception. Where I think that this book succeeded was that the theme of love and all of the different forms this could take is so throughly represented. I had my favorites and I am sure that others will have theirs - and that is what makes a successful anthology

I enjoyed this anthology of young adult short stories featuring all sorts of love - romantic, familial, self love, and even a beloved pet. I had several favorites that I plan to reread, and a few that didn't keep me attention as much. Although the stories were not interconnected, it was a well done collection and a great one to showcase short stories. Recommend for high school classrooms and teenagers!

I loved the story, the world building and meeting the different characters. I felt completely immersed in the story and couldn't stop reading it.

A beautiful, diverse collection of stories that explores different kinds of love. From the adoration of a crush to the generational trauma of colonization to the grief of losing a beloved animal, there are many incredible stories. I loved that every one was diverse in some way.

Anthologies are hit or miss for me, because I usually either like majority of the stories or don't. I usually like YA romance, but many of those short stories had a historical feel to it that just had me bored, and I didn't transition easily to the next. I do like that it was in verse, my favorite was Kaleidoscope.
