Beskrivning
In this psychologically haunting YA fiction anthology, ten talented women and nonbinary writers explore the terror and anxiety that bleed into the Black psyche in America. From black-market medical experiments to shapeshifting monsters to doomsday cults and body snatchers, each story casts an unnerving and thought-provoking light on the real-world horrors of our society that can disrupt a life—or end it. Ranging from speculative to contemporary, this collection of terror and resistance asks if we can finally see the thing that goes bump in the night, and how it walks freely in the light of day too.

Praise for BAD THINGS HAPPEN HERE by Rebecca Barrow: "This contemporary novel fuses elements of mystery and romance as Luca’s beautifully told coming-of-age story unfolds against a dark backdrop of death...There is not a word wasted in this sad and harrowing tale." — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)Praise for CINDERELLA IS DEAD by Kalynn Bayron: "Flipping the Cinderella tale on its head, Bayron’s take challenges patriarchy with kick-butt heroines and a counter-story that will forever change how readers perceive fairy tales." — Booklist (starred review)Praise for BLACK BIRDS IN THE SKY by Brandy Colbert: "Colbert writes confidently about the truth of American history that has been long omitted from textbooks and conversations, and presents a case for acknowledging lingering racist ideas, sentiments, and assumptions and for holding ourselves accountable to overturning the harm that racism has caused. Necessary reading for any student of history or for anyone trying to understand our present." — Booklist (starred review)
