A Universe of Wishes by Dhonielle Clayton
4.0
This collection of short stories came at the right time for me, because I had just finished reading the Shades of Magic trilogy and was desperate for some Rhy and Alucard fan-fiction, and V. E. Schwab SERVED. Not to mention the anthology included stories by a vast majority of my favourite authors, including Zoraida Cordova and Anna-Marie McLemore.
This is a great collection of YA short fiction all written by queer and/or BIPOC authors. The stories are mostly fantasy or sci-fi, and although I wasn't really into the sci-fi stories, the fantasy ones were great. My favourite story ended up being The Coldest Spot in the Universe by Samira Ahmed (it made me bawl my eyes out and it was so beautiful!)
All in all, it's a really good range of stories, and as someone who doesn't usually look for anthologies, this was an enjoyable read.
