I found this collection of YA romance short stories fell a bit flat. It is clear that a good effort was made to include diverse characters and portray queer romance. With that in mind, I was disappointed that there was no representation of trans or gender queer characters and no disability representation. With the obvious attention given to alternating between heterosexual and homosexual relationships and alternating between white and BIPOC stories, it sticks out like a sore thumb that these groups of people who deserve representation in all literature where left out. 

Otherwise, some of the stories were fun and engaging while many of the stories dragged and didn’t create compelling characters or romance. I can’t recommend this anthology.
