Description
Maggie Stiefvater joins forces with Tessa Gratton and Brenna Yovanoff to deliver three interwoven stories about the many faces of curiosity. A Brooklyn teen learns to speak her mind under the guidance of an unconventional tutor, a soldier in a distant war zone attempts to disarm explosives while wrestling with an impossible love, and a young writer in a parched land fights to stay afloat in a world where water is a luxury. Each story is paired with the author's reflections on the writing process, offering insight into the craft behind the narrative. Targeted at teens in grades 9-12, the collection blends coming-of-age drama with raw, honest language.
