Night of the Living Queers by Alex Brown, Shelly Page

4.0

I really liked most of the stories here, all horror shorts centered around young, queer characters. Some end well for the protagonist, others, well, at least it's not always the same "dead lesbian" trope. There's ethnic diversity galore, and the characters sound and act like real teenagers,, which doesn't always happen in YA. I'd love to put a copy of this in the trick-or-treat bag of every kid over 9 who comes to my house for Halloween. Go read--read about the scary house that's really a palace of wonder, about Terrifying Bob the mall ghost, about bad step-siblings, about very, very cute demons.
