 How They Met, and Other Stories
by David Levithan
 "Here are 18 stories, all about love, and about all kinds of love. From the aching for the one you pine for, to standing up and speaking up for the one you love, to pure joy and happiness, these love stories run the gamut of that emotion that at some point has turned every one of us inside out and upside down. What is love? With this original story collection David Levithan proves that love is a many splendored thing, a varied, complicated, addictive, wonderful thing."

Notes:
I really enjoyed this book. I liked that it was stories about love and not love stories, and that it showed lots of different types of love. It was sweet.
