Whether or not you believe in fate, or luck, or love at first sight, every romance has to start somewhere. MEET CUTE is an anthology of original short stories featuring tales of "how they first met" from some of today’s most popular YA authors.
Readers will experience Nina LaCour's beautifully written piece about two Bay Area girls meeting via a cranky customer service Tweet, Sara Shepard's glossy tale about a magazine intern and a young rock star, Nicola Yoon's imaginative take on break-ups and make-ups, Katie Cotugno's story of two teens hiding out from the police at a house party, and Huntley Fitzpatrick's charming love story that begins over iced teas at a diner. There’s futuristic flirting from Kass Morgan and Katharine McGee, a riveting transgender heroine from Meredith Russo, a subway missed connection moment from Jocelyn Davies, and a girl determined to get out of her small town from Ibi Zoboi. Jennifer Armentrout writes a sweet story about finding love from a missing library book, Emery Lord has a heartwarming and funny tale of two girls stuck in an airport, Dhonielle Clayton takes a thoughtful, speculate approach to pre-destined love, and Julie Murphy dreams up a fun twist on reality dating show contestants.
This incredibly talented group of authors brings us a collection of stories that are at turns romantic and witty, epic and everyday, heartbreaking and real.

some of these were really cute, some of these were just ok, some of these i didn't like at all. most of them felt like a sneeze that wouldn't come out and were just starting to get good when they ended. avg. rating: 3.1 stars

This was such a cute, heartwarming book. The stories and characters were diverse, the meetings were really sweet, and I genuinely found myself smiling hugely or “aww”-ing aloud at most of the stories. Nothing bad to say about this collection! And I loved the queer representation.
Adorable and touching stories. I loved each one. I'll be looking up each author to read more of their work
Over all gkkd
I will have a detailed eating and review for each story soon. It is going to take some time to write it all out.
