3 1/2 stars. I always enjoy reading new Australian authors, and this was an interesting collection of YA stories. Those I particularly enjoyed were: Meet and greet, Mediocre heroes, Variation, and Living Rose

A very good book! Loved nearly all of the stories 😍 I think the final one was my favourite!

This was a fun little anthology! It felt pretty cohesive overall, and sent an over-arching message of being kind, and taking care of the world we're in. Some of the stories felt a little out of place (one of them literally made no sense to me?) but overall, I think they were well written and edited.

I really enjoyed this!!!!! My official rating is about a 4.5. There were a lot of 4-5 star reads for me and only really 2 I wasnt crazy about it which I think is pretty impressive for an anthology! This is my breakdown without hopefully giving to much away. I have put ⭐️ next to my 5 star reads to show the ones I really freaking loved!!!!

⭐️Meet and greet. I loved this so much, the perfect queer meet cute. A boy who meets his literary idol and a boy he follows on social media all in the same day.
⭐️Breathe me in. This I also really loved, especially since it was kind of horror/supernatural type story right after a cute romance story. There's people going missing, its great.

Taking my own story out of the equasion, this is a fantastic collection of really varied and great short stories that I enjoyed immensely. It's exciting to hear from new voices. If you want a good mix YA stories, then give this one a go.
