Goodreads Description:
From an impressive sisterhood of YA writers comes an edge-of-your-seat anthology of historical fiction and fantasy featuring a diverse array of daring heroines.
Criss-cross America — on dogsleds and ships, stagecoaches and trains — from pirate ships off the coast of the Carolinas to the peace, love, and protests of 1960s Chicago. Join fifteen of today’s most talented writers of young adult literature on a thrill ride through history with American girls charting their own course. They are monsters and mediums, bodyguards and barkeeps, screenwriters and schoolteachers, heiresses and hobos. They're making their own way in often-hostile lands, using every weapon in their arsenals, facing down murderers and marriage proposals. And they all have a story to tell.

Pre-Order here and hereI think that this one will be awesome :D Because so many authors that I love are writing short stories in it. Sigh. I simply cannot wait to read them all. And that cover is so pretty. Yay. I think this one will be amazing. Crossing my fingers that I will love all the stories :D I'm most excited about Marissa Meyer. <3
