This is a really strong anthology! Particular favs: Justina Ireland's story of a rad fat sorceress, Patrice Caldwell's story of a teen vampire enthusiast who gets a taste of the real deal, and Charlotte Nicole Davis's story of a girl who realizes that the shitty toxic water on her side of town has given her supernatural abilities that the wealthy white kids at her private school don't have.
