Love is Hell by Melissa Marr, Scott Westerfeld, Justine Larbalestier, Laurie Faria Stolarz and Gabrielle Zevin


Love is Hell is a short story collection of supernatural romances.Laurie Faria Stolarzs protagonist finds herself falling in love with his ghost; Gabrielle Zevin introduces a high school student who may (or may not) be overidentifying with the book she is reading; and Scott Westerfeld looks into a future where hormonal balancers tamp down teen romances and bioframes obviate sleep and dreams. Melissa Marr and Justine Larbalestier reinterpret folklore conventions.

I really liked reading this story collection, I am not that into supernatural stories, so if I do like a book that is about it, it must be good! And I must say I liked this collection more than the other novel in this series, Prom Nights from Hell.

I think it will be most entertaining for young teens to read or if you are a starter with young adult fiction. As an older reader I thought it was overall cute,and a great way to be introduced to authors I haven't yet read work from!
