All My Rage meets The Poet X in this electric debut that explores a Muslim teen finding her voice in a post-9/11 America. Nida has always been known as Mamou Abdul-Hafeedh’s niece—the poet who will fill her uncle’s shoes after he was wrongfully incarcerated during the war on terror. But for Nida, her poetry letters are her heart and sharing so much of herself with a world that stereotypes her faith and her hijab is not an option.

Yulieta Lopez is angry. Angry at her racist drama teacher who refuses to cast Black students in lead roles. Angry at the school board threatening her favorite teacher for teaching works of literature that they deem “controversial.” Angry that she has to keep quiet until she can head to college and leave Texas forever. Yuli is accustomed to playing various roles: the diligent daughter, the honorable hija, the good girl who serves everyone else before serving herself. But as the fire of Yuli's rage spreads and lights her up, she can no longer be silent.

In this semi-autobiographical collection of poems, Renée Watson writes about her experience growing up as a young Black girl at the intersections of race, class, and gender.

Over the past five years, Mitra Esfahani has known two constants: her best friend Bea Ortega and The Book—a dogeared moleskin she and Bea have been filling with the stanzas of an epic, never-ending poem since they were 13. For introverted Mitra, The Book is one of the few places she can open herself completely and where she gets to see all sides of brilliant and ebullient Bea. There, they can share everything—Mitra’s complicated feelings about her absent mother, Bea’s heartache over her most recent breakup—nothing too messy or complicated for The Book.

Em 2017, Bruna Vieira fez as malas, deixou a vida no Brasil de lado e foi escrever uma nova história em outro país, vestida de coragem e guiada por um sentimento que sempre foi sua maior prioridade: o amor. Com o tempo, porém, os dias foram ficando cada vez mais longos e solitários. Era como se naquele lugar o amor tivesse perdido o equilíbrio e se tornado uma obrigação. Foi bem perto do fim e de jeito mais frio que ela finalmente se deu conta: é impossível ser "nós" sozinha.

Un recorrido poético para reencontrarse con uno mismo y recordar que perderse forma parte del camino. Cuando empecé este viaje no sabía dónde acabaría, simplemente me senté en el tren, miré por la ventana y vi la vida pasar, parada tras parada. Mentiría si dijera que el recorrido fue fácil porque estuvo lleno de baches, parones, subidas y bajadas, encuentros y despedidas. Hubo momentos buenos, otros que no lo fueron tanto y alguno que fue simplemente terrible, tanto que incluso llegué a pensar que ese era mi destino. Seguramente tú también has pasado por momentos así.
