Unbound: Stories of Transformation, Love, and Monsters

by Emily Colin, Madeline Dyer, Lisa Amowitz, et al.

Book Overview

A dull AP English assignment interrupted by the resurrection of a 5,000-year-old mummy. A "boy meets boy meets time travel" tale. An ancient evil summoned from the Scottish moors. A sentient garden turned matchmaker. A troubled teen who rehabilitates monsters. A sinister society where love is punishable by death. A medieval pirate queen in love with a ghost. A demon who rebels against her birthright. A mysterious Power that turns people to stone. A girl who guards the secret behind her best friend's disappearance. A violinist on the brink who learns to listen to her heart.

The stories in this anthology have one common theme: Transformation. They include international own-voices perspectives; a New York Times-bestselling author; Emmy, SIBA, and ILA award-winning writers; and emerging, independent voices in YA fiction. The collection's authors, like its stories, are UNBOUND-diverse voices exploring identity, love, betrayal, and becoming. They give us a glimpse into what can be: stories of possibility, love, friendship, the monsters around us and within us.
