This anthology showcases the LGBTQ genre's best up-and-coming-authors between the ages of fourteen and twenty-one. The road from childhood to adulthood can be a bumpy one, especially for LGBTQ youth. Travel beside characters of all identities, orientations, and expressions as they search for a place to belong and people to love and support them just the way they are. From cities to the countryside, across diverse nations, and in fantastical realms of imagination, these young people struggle against society's expectations, judgment from friends and family, and their own confusionall while trying to enjoy their teenage years. Join them as they find the strength to be the people they're meant to be and the courage to show their beauty to the world.
