Dedication: "For the heartbroken."
We dare you to read this book about how shitty love can be: an introduction / Heather Demetrios -- You are so far from broken / Becky Albertalli -- Grow wildly / Nina LaCour -- Do you care to reside within? / Adi Alsaid -- If you call, I will answer / Kekla Magoon -- We have to be who we are / Libba Bray -- We're not alone / Kim Liggett -- Stay you / Mike Curato -- How to find a boyfriend in your heart / Sarah McCarry -- I am tired of trying to prove my worth / Amy Ewing -- Who said I have to give my heart up for a breaking? / A.S. King -- Own your heart / Jasmine Warga -- Bigger than heartbreak / Sandhya Menon -- Life in the friend zone / Varian Johnson -- Down the rabbit hole and out the other side / Cristina Moracho -- Love is all, love is you / Heather Demetrios and Zach Fehst -- Knock down those walls / Ibi Zoboi -- Open the door and walk through it / Corey Ann Haydu -- The teacher of all things / Gayle Forman.
In this powerful collection, such YA authors as Gayle Forman, Adi Alsaid, and Mike Curato answer real letters from teens about the dark side of love: dating violence, break-ups, cheating, betrayals, and loneliness. Their responses are autobiographical, unflinching, and filled with love and hope for the anonymous teen writers.
