"""Immersive and eerie...Threads of horror run through most of the stories, but they also contain magic and relatable themes and experiences. Readers will find celebrations of inner strength, the discovery of unique powers, and all-encompassing first love. This anthology will both haunt readers and stir their blood.""--Booklist ""The combination of recognizable names from young adult literature and superlative stories on a range of themes makes this collection a winner. This bloodcurdling anthology soars.""--Kirkus Reviews, starred review ""Thrilling chills for the fans of horror and fantasy.""--School Library Journal"
