Megan Meade's Guide to the McGowan Boys


Have you ever thought about what it would be like to live in a house with seven boys? Although this may seem unrealistic but super super fun, for Megan Meade this is real. It's actually happening. Megan Meade is NOT good at talking to boys and when her parents tell her they're moving to South Korea she refuses to go with them. Her parents tell her that her only other option is to go live with the McGowan boys. Which, I personally don't find that terrible. But Megan hasn't seen these boys since they were little and all she remembers about them is how terrible they are. They're all super crazy all the time and Megan is not exactly excited to go live with them, but it's better than moving to South Korea, in her opinion.

When Megan first pulls into the driveway all she sees are boys. Really really ridiculously good looking boys playing shirts vs. skins Frisbee... Yummy. But Megan wasn't sure she wanted to come live with the boys until her friend Tracy convinces her to go live with the boys and email her all the tips she figures out about boys behavior, and how they truly are. When she pulls up into the driveway of her new home she's glad she moved in with them because they are all, in her words, "blessed by the Abrocrombie Gods", which means they're all just beautiful!!

Megan goes through a ton of difficult times trying to figure out if it's Finn or Evan that she likes. Finn and Evan are brothers, so she doesn't quite know which one to go for. Also, she needs to figure out how to live through the school year without having all the boys hate her in the household. Because honestly, how bad would that suck? Living in a house full of boys where not one of them likes you.

I recommend this books to girls who want to read a book that is some-what realistic but at the same time something that would never happen to most people. This book has good relationships turning into bad relationships and gossip ruining peoples reputations and Megan ends up falling in love with the guy you don't expect, so I guess you could say it is a unpredictable read. There wasn't anything very vulgar about this book. It talked about what most teenagers think/talk about as well. But if you are uncomfortable with the words breast, sex, or tampon, you should probably stay away from this. But if you're not, then PICK UP THIS BOOK! It was great!!!
