Unbroken: 13 Stories Starring Disabled Teens by Marieke Nijkamp
hopeful
slow-paced
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
2.5
The quality of the stories in this anthology was really uneven - the good stories were excellent, but the bad stories were so bad that I struggled to finish them. Many of the stories felt really juvenile, even for YA, and a lot of the fantasy/sci-fi stories had pretty weak world building. I would probably still recommend based on the quality of the best stories in it, but get it from the library.
