Megan Meade’s Guide to the McGowan Boys by Kate Brian


Book Recommendation by Rosemary S.

Buford Branch

Megan Meade’s life is about to be turned completely upside down. Both her parents are in the army as doctors and are being transferred to Korea. Megan is sick and tired of moving so she decides to make a bold move and ask her parents if she could stay in the United States and finish high school. To her surprise, they both agree but only if she stays with one of her dad’s friends, John McGowan, and his family. The last time Megan saw the seven McGowan boys they were annoying and tortured her until she accidently hit one of them with a bat.

Now the boys have changed, but looks can be deceiving. They feel that she is trespassing and don’t want her there. Will Megan decide to go to Korea with her parents or stay and live with the McGowan Boys? Whatever she decides, at least Megan can still be able to keep her best friend back home, Tracy, informed by creating the guide to the McGowan Boys.

Megan Meade’s Guide to the McGowann Boys is a very good book. If you are an only daughter or if all you have is sisters and no brothers, this is a good book for you to read. It is hilarious and would make you wish you were Megan. I personally think Kate Brian needs to write a sequel to this book. If you like this book, I also recommend Smart Boys and Fast Girls by Stephie Davis or 13 Little Blue Envelopes by Maureen Johnson.

Happy Reading!
