Girl Meets Boy
Edited by Kelly Milner Halls
"A superb offering."
—Kirkus Reviews, starred review
Twelve of the hottest YA authors writing today have hooked up up for this one-of-a-kind collection of he said/she said stories. He tells it from the guy’s point of view, she tells it from the girl’s. Stories of love and heartbreak, like the good-looking jock who falls for a dangerous girl and the flipside of the toxic girl who never learns to be loved; a basketball star and the artistic (and shorter) boy she never knew she wanted; and a gay boy looking for love online and the girl who could help make it happen, teach us that relationships become complicated because there are two sides to every story.
