What if your school had a boy recession?

  • Puppy love? Puh-lease
Get ready for the new school year with Flynn Meaney’s The Boy Recession.

 

Julius P. Heil High is going through a boy recession. Yep, a boy recession. All the footballers have moved away. Meaning, of course, there are no cute guys left. And so all the guys who went unnoticed for years are getting some major attention.

 

The boy-crazed spandexers (the queen-bees of Julius High) are getting their flirt on with any available guy they can find. Even Hunter Fahrenbach, an unconventionally cute member of the school’s band, and his friend Eugene are getting majorly hit on! It’s a problem for Kelly Robbins, whose been secretly crushing on Hunter for quite a while (they were pals way before the boy recession).

 

Can Kelly compete with all of Hunter’s new suitors? Or will a spandexer steal his heart? Reporter Aviva, Kelly’s BFF, is on the case. She controls the school’s online newspaper, The Julius Journal, and most importantly, the gossip column.

 

Each chapter in this new book is from the point of view of either Hunter or Kelly—and it covers their entire junior year. Readers will enjoy everything from open-mic night performances to a dramatic prom. Julius High is certainly in for an exciting school year.  Boyfriends, divas, and best friends make The Boy Recession a fun, flirty read. 

 

Be sure to grab your copy (available now!). Then come back and share your thoughts.

 

Grab the book here!

Well there's only like four or five decent guys who aren't hot shots in my school.... So nothing would really change. Just that the boyfriend addicted girls would go crazy. But I think I'd survive. This sounds like a cool book! I love romance~

Mod Mod Mod Mod
Please get back to me a.s.a.p
ok so tommorow im supposed to go on vacation with my mom and sister to my grandmas house for a family reunion. Problem is my cousin is going and i don't want to go if shes going. She just gets all the attention and then i would be upstairs alone anyways. Plus i would have to go on a 3 hour car ride with her so really i would just get in a bad mood. Should i even go i don't wanna let my grandma down, but if im not gonna be socializing with the fam why go? Thanks in advance

 

Hey girlie,

There's no reason to let your cousin ruin your whole trip. You should take advantage of the chance to spend time with your grandma, mom, sister, and any other fam members you haven't seen in a while! Who cares if your cousin tries to get all the attention? Your fam isn't stupid - they can see her trying too hard and they know exactly what she's doing. If she's annoying in the car, listen to your iPod and try to drift off to sleep. If she's annoying at the reunion, take a deep breath and move to another room or outside. But family is precious, so I definitely would not let my cousin keep me away from seeing the people I love. It's not worth skipping the whole trip just to avoid her! And it's not fair to your grandma to let something petty like this keep her from spending time with you <3

MOD MOD MOD my mom wants me to start reading books, the thing is, i do, but she doesn't want me to read books about, as she defines it "school drama" no the clique or stuff like that, but i dont want to read ones that seem like school reading list books, what do you suggest?

 

Hey girlie,

I think it's always about balance. For every one book she wants you to read, try to compromise and read one of yours. Those "school reading list" books are on the "list" for a reason - because they're classics, they make you think, and they're really good. Give them a chance! Reading should be fun, so try to lose yourself in the story and don't hold a grudge based on who recommended the book. <3 It's such a fun thing, to escape life and slip into the life/experiences of someone else!
