Review: Together, Apart

Review: Together, Apart by Multiple Authors

A collection of original contemporary love stories set during life in lockdown by some of today's most popular YA authors.

Erin Craig "delivers" on a story about a new girl in town and the cute pizza delivery boy, Auriane Desombre captures our hearts with teens communicating through window signs, and Bill Konigsberg takes us along on daily walks with every step bringing us closer to love. There's flirting and romance from Rachael Lippincott, a tale of a determined girl with a mask-making business from Erin Hahn, and a music-inspired love connection from Sajni Patel. Brittney Morris turns enemies to lovers with the help of a balcony herb garden, Jennifer Yen writes an unconventional romance that starts outside a hospital, and Natasha Preston's teens discover each other--and their love story--in a storybook oak tree.

Romantic, realistic, sweet and uplifting, TOGETHER, APART is a collection of finding love in unexpected places during an unprecedented time . . . each with the one thing we all want: a guaranteed happy ending.

Mini Review: This was a great short story collection! I think there is a story for everyone in this book. My favorite was Masked by Erin Hahn (As a girl who has always preferred Danny Kaye to Bing Crosby, it was nice to read a story where the main character agreed! Also, the romance was super cute.) A close runner up was Jennifer Yen's story, Love With A Side Of Fortune! If you're looking for a good short story collection, I would definitely recommend this YA book!

I received an e-ARC of this book from the publisher.
