It does not necessarily take a fist to create a punch in the gut. This fourteen-story YA fiction anthology delves into the experience of being bullied—socially, emotionally, physically, psychologically, and sexually. The school hallways, walks home, and house walls are no longer the boundaries for intimidation and harassment. With the rapid-fire response time of social media and smartphones, bullying has lost all limits, and the lines among truth, lies, and real accountability have become blurred. Featuring some of the hottest voices in YA literature, both bestselling and on the rise, Cornered includes works from Kirsten Miller , Jennifer Brown , Elizabeth Miles , Jaime Adoff , Lish McBride , Matthue Roth , Sheba Karim , Kate Ellison , Zeta Elliot , Josh Berk , and James Lecesne .
