15 STORIES OF BELLES, BANK ROBBERS & OTHER BADASS GIRLS

Blurb: “Crisscross America  dogsleds and ships, stagecoaches and trains —from pirate ships off the Carolinas to the peace, love, and protests of 1960s Chicago. Join fifteen of the most talented writers working in young

adult literature today— an impressive sisterhood that includes Elizabeth Wein, Marie Lu, Marissa Meyer, and Kekla Magoon— on a thrill ride through history with American girls driving their own stories. They are monsters and mediums, bank robbers and barkeeps, screenwriters and schoolteachers, heiresses and hobos. They're charting their own path in often-hostile lands, using every weapon in their arsenal, facing down murderers and marriage proposals. Along the way, they might kiss girls or boys— or no one at all, because they're too busy catching spies. But one thing's for sure — they're going to have a hell of a story to tell.“
