Kate Mackenzie is a young woman from Kentucky who has moved to New York City with her best friend, Jen. Unfortunately, while The Boy Next Door was fresh, original and altogether heartwarming, Boy Meets Girl comes across as a bad imitation of it. While The Boy Next Door was made up completely of emails sent back and forth between the characters, Boy Meets Girl incorporates not only emails but phone messages, notes, memos and, most annoyingly, journal entries by the main character.
Not only is the premise similar (two goody-goody single young people meet up and fall in love), but it also follows a non-traditional format. Cabot’s newest adult book, Boy Meets Girl, follows nearly the same course as The Boy Next Door. The author of the popular Princess Diaries young adult books, Meg Cabot broke into adult fiction with She Went All the Way and The Boy Next Door.
