Meet Cute is an anthology about couples meeting for the first time. I never know how to review anthologies because it's not just one author or one story and it feels like it would take forever to sit down and disect each story and review it.
I do know that I really disliked the first story, Siege Etiquette by Katie Cotugno. It was about this snotty popular girl who ended up at some party after she had some traumatic event happen, the event is not told to us, and the cops come and the kids have to hide and she ends up in a bathroom with the least popular guy in the school. She is so horrible to him and treats him nastily yet she still tries to get in his pants. Major WTF story. My favorite story was probably Click by Matharine McGee. Click was about this dating app that hooks people up based on more than just a profile picture and a few shallow interests. The girl goes on her first Click date but she leaves her phone in the taxi and the guy she was supposed to meet helps her track her phone down and then there is a big plot twist at the end that was so fricken cute!
Most of the stories are pretty cute but some of them just made me have to put the book down and smack myself in the forehead before I could even attempt to continue.
Overall, I gave the book 4/5 stars.
Would you like to know how my husband of 8 years and myself met? Leave a comment below and I will make a post about it. WARNING: It is kind of adult-rated so be ready for some not pretty words, lol.
