Another very sweet story from a talented team of writers! It’s impressive how they write characters the reader can connect with, even in such a short vignette. I would highly recommend the full-cast audiobook!

Such a cute YA love story set during a rare Atlanta blizzard. I love the way these authors collaborate with one another to tell the stories of these teenagers. This book is heartwarming and happy — and makes you believe in love.

“My therapist, on the other hand, calls plans a double-edged sword. They definitely help with my anxiety, but thanks to this thing we call life, they don't always go as, well, planned. When they don't it throws me out of sort.” 

➽ Whiteout is a collection of stories during a snowstorm in Atlanta! I loved the setting and I'm always here for books that are made out of interconnected stories that you can see coming together! I listened to the audiobook, which was great as there are multiple narrators for each story. The heart of the book is about genius Stevie who is trying to make a grand gesture for her girlfriend Sola, who she hurt very deeply. She enlists the help of her friends Kaz, E.R., Jordyn, Jimi, Ava, and Mason, who each contribute to the overall storyline! Each story has a different pairing, but I have to admit that the stories didn't really stick in my mind. I remember really liking Jordyn & Omar's story, as they are stuck in their car during the storm and had the most interesting dynamic for me! I could see myself rereading Whiteout though, because it was an enjoyable, snowy read!
