YA
In these short stories, thirteen teens are connected by their experiences on Hungry Heart Row: an atmospheric fictional neighborhood renowned for its variety of eclectic, magical cuisines. Some stories are realistic and others supernatural; all are grounded by sensitive portrayals of the teens' cultural and economic backgrounds and themes of love, food, and community. A strong, consistent, and satisfying compilation.
