I know. I know. I have been atrocious at keeping up with reviews. Lotta stuff going on...
But, I have been reading. So, this morning will be a two-fer.
First, Foreshadow. This is a short story collection, but it's different in most in that it is also a writer's craft text. Each short story is by a new and upcoming YA author, introduced by a pillar in the genre--think Jason Reynolds, Becky Albertalli, Nicola Yoon, and Laurie Halse Anderson to name a few. Then there is a writing prompt, utilizing a technique from the short story.
I loved this. I can honestly say I liked every single short story, and I truly wanted to write along with the prompts afterwards. I literally emailed Mrs. Bennett, our ELA Coordinator, and our English Department Chair Ms. Deninger to recommend it.
I will be donating this on Monday! Stay safe and warm everyone!
