"The concept of home—what it looks like and what it means—is beautifully explored in this collection of sixteen short stories, focusing on young people across the South Asian diaspora... The stories are distinct in form and voice, with some first-person narratives offering an intimate and specific contemplation on a singular home, while others pull back to third-person for a broader picture, utilizing the secondary cast to convey larger cultural dynamics. Other tales are marked by time jumps, or clever uses of space in both page layout and formatting, with the final story a stream of consciousness that follows two Indian Americans as they connect over music and food after high school graduation... could also be read as a realistic counterpart to the editors’ more fantastical collection, Magic Has No Borders." — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books"This anthology centering on South Asian diaspora teens in the West examines the issues that come with navigating vastly different cultures... This well-curated collection features contributions from well-known names, like Rajani LaRocca and Veera Hiranandani, as well as newer voices... The broad representation of life experiences is a strength of this appealing work. An engaging and inclusive exploration of identity and belonging." — Kirkus Reviews"This well-curated collection features contributions from well-known names, like Rajani LaRocca and Veera Hiranandani, as well as newer voices... An engaging and inclusive exploration of identity and belonging." — Kirkus Reviews"Themes of connection permeate this poignant and introspective anthology, which asks—and occasionally answers—thought-provoking questions about what it means to be a young South Asian person in contemporary Western society." — Publishers Weekly
