I’d like to start off by saying thank you to Alongquin Young Readers for giving me an Advanced Reader’s Copy and for letting me be a part of this book tour for Foreshadow. It’s such a great pleasure to share the joy of reading these stories. <i>FORESHADOW </i>is an anthology of fresh stories by upcoming young adult writers who have submitted these during a call for submissions for the said title. The book contains 13 stories from such amazing writers with different backgrounds. Each story has it's own twist and taste. These stories are written by authors with their own cultural norms and backgrounds weaved into the words. At the same time, the editors explain what's special about the story and what element of writing is highlighted in the story. <i>FORESHADOW </i>features story prompts that encourage the reader to try his hand in writing their own story. Through these stories, aspiring writers are given a crash course on writing with no barriers. <img src="https://denisiaden.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/foreshadow.jpg?w=1024" width="300" height="300" alt="description"/> Not all stories are something of my cup of tea but again, we all have different tastes. I am so thankful to have read this. It was such a welcome change in YA to see all these voices being represented. There’s so much more that these authors could give and it’s amazing how the editors and publisher gave them this chance to show the world what stories they had to share. It’s also amazing how the editors are so willing to share with aspiring writers their knowledge and tips in writing stories. They even gave prompts that are somewhat out of the blue.
