About the book

"Imagines the lives of queer teens throughout different time periods, often playing with genre (retellings, fairy tales, magical realism, fantasy) as well." — Vulture Seventeen young adult authors across the queer spectrum have come together to create a collection of beautifully written diverse historical fiction for teens. From a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood set in war-torn 1870s Mexico featuring a transgender soldier... to two girls falling in love while mourning the death of Kurt Cobain... to forbidden love in a sixteenth-century Spanish convent... and an asexual girl discovering her identity amid the 1970s roller-disco scene, All Out tells a diverse range of stories across cultures, time periods, and identities, shedding light on an area of history often ignored or forgotten. Featuring original stories from: Malinda Lo Mackenzi Lee Robin Talley Kody Keplinger Elliot Wake Anna-Marie McLemore Shaun David Hutchinson Dahlia Adler Tess Sharpe Kate Scelsa Natalie C. Parker Sara Farizan Nilah Magruder Tessa Gratton Tehlor Kay Mejia Alex Sanchez Scott Tracey "Readers searching for positive, nuanced, and authentic queer representation—or just a darn good selection of stories—need look no further than this superb collection." — Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Exceptional in scope and quality... gives voice to the experiences that have long existed but often go unrepresented." — Publishers Weekly (starred review) Read the entire set of companion anthologies featuring queer teens in the past, present, and future...

    second read I finally reread this anthology and finished it, but I have to say my feelings from before still stand: I am just not an anthology person, period. None of the stories really stood out to me or made me want to keep on reading, which made them overall a tad forgettable :( first read I give up. I have been "reading" this book for so long now (over a year, OMG), and it just cannot keep my interest enough for me to continue. I will definitely go back to this one, though!
