"No one had ever said one day I'd have to put in work to find friends—friends were supposed to show up and click with you and everything was supposed to make perfect sense." Up All Night: 13 Stories between Sunset & Sunrise has kept me company the last few days while I've been sick. It's a compilation of YA short stories about what can happen when you're up all night. Many of the stories had common themes of friendship, identity, sexuality, fitting in, first love and social awkwardness. The majority were light hearted and cute and really took me back to adolescence and how complicated friendships and communication can be at that age. It also makes me reflect on how friendships need to be nurtured just like any other sort of relationship. Breakdown of communication can either make or break situations and it's important to be open to the process and also be willing to put yourself out there if you want meaningful connections with people. This one had a strong opening story in Never Have I Ever by Karen McManus. It delved into deviance and the plot twist was so unexpected I was hoping this was the tone for all the stories. Another stand out story was Shark Bait by Tiffany Jackson with themes of microaggressions, racism, being biracial and passing with of course a shocking ending. Creature Capture by Laura Silverman had me in all my nerdy feels because it definitely reminded me of Pokémon Go when it first came out. Con Nights, Parallel Hearts by Marieke Nijkamp took me back to the happiness I felt at conventions and it had great non-binary representation. Overall, this collection was a great representation of diverse experiences and really showcased what it's like to live life along the intersections. I loved that the characters weren't just one note and being weird or different was celebrated. Although these were short stories, you do get to see character growth. Some of these stories read younger and they are appropriate for both middle grade and young adults. My final take on this one is that it was a cute read and perfect if you're looking for an escape read and are a big fan of cheesy teen angst and nostalgia. Thanks to @algonquinyr for the gifted copy. Up All Night is a collection of late-night YA adventures, edited by Laura Silverman, with short stories by Brandy Colbert, Kathleen Glasgow, Maurene Goo, Tiffany D. Jackson, Amanda Joy, Nina LaCour, Karen M. McManus, Anna Meriano, Marieke Nijkamp, Kayla Whaley, Julian Winters and Francesca Zappia. Even though (almost) all the stories are great, Up All Night is hard to read in one sitting. There are just too many coming-of-age epiphanies in one small book. The pattern of meeting a new cast of teenage characters at a dramatic late-night turning point makes it emotionally exhausting to read this all at ones. This is a collection where you read a story — or maybe two — and then do something else for a bit. I was already a fan of Maurene Goo and Karen M. McManus, so I was delighted to see their stories in this collection. McManus’ story, Never Have I Ever, has her signature Brat Pack-movie feel with a huge twist at the end. I wasn’t familiar with Tiffany D. Jackson before this book, but her story Shark Bait is a standout in this collection. Race, class, and believable characters facing spoken and unspoken social expectations. I also liked the wide representation in this book in general. The teen friendgroups in the book didn’t look like teen movies used to, but it felt realistic and honest, not forced. Up All Night really captured a variety of intense, dramatic teenage moments in this collection. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
