"This anthology is perfect for teens who are interested in science fiction and fantasy — but who don’t want just stories about white, straight, able-bodied rich kids and their vampire problems. And who also don’t want to read diversity narratives that are all about how being not white, not straight, not able-bodied, and not rich are the problem. The characters’ differences don’t drive the conflicts in Kaleidoscope; instead, they inform the way each person deals with meeting gods or legendary creatures, gaining superhero-level powers, and gazing into the future and all its challenges."
