Girl Meets Boy is a collection of short stories dealing with the topic of perception. Each story has a pair, one from the girl's point of view and one from the guy's. The plot of each story doesn't focus on one character being better than the other, and each one deals with a wide range of problems such as race separation, desperation, and smaller things like just a difference of height, all of which show what can bring two people together, or in some cases apart. The fact that each story was written by a different author also changes some aspects of the book.
