4.2 out of 5 stars 15 ratings
Jack Robinson and Andy Stone are best friends, navigating their way through life in 90s London with a soundtrack of Britpop. Jack’s in his final year at university and still has no idea about what he wants to do with his life, while Andy’s a mechanic by day, a bit of a man-whore the rest of the time.Adapting to a new place to live in a big city isn’t easy, especially when girls, alcohol, and hard work get in the way, but having your best friend with you every step of the way makes it that much easier… well, when you’re not ignoring each other.Filled with laughter and heartache, Jack and Andy’s story is for everyone. A hint of romance, a solid friendship, and plenty of stupid mistakes. But, will they learn from them?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

M. B. Feeney is an army brat who finally settled down in Birmingham, UK with her other half, two kids and a dog. She often procrastinates by listening to music of all genres and trying to get ‘just one more paragraph’ written on whichever WIP is open; she is also a serious doodler and chocoholic. Writing has been her one true love ever since she could spell, and publishing is the final culmination of her hard work and ambition.

Her publishing career began with two novellas, and she currently has multiple projects under way, in the hopes that her portfolio of what have been described as “everyday love stories for everyday people” will continue to grow. Always having something on the go can often lead to block which eventually gets dissolved by good music and an even better book.

Her main reason for writing is to not only give her readers enjoyment, but also to create a story and characters that stay with readers long after the book is finished, and possibly make someone stop and think “what if … ”

    4.0 out of 5 stars Summer read to keep you immersed
    Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2017

    Note: I rarely leave five stars, as I save them for the books I will read again and again. Please keep that in mind as you read my review. :)

    This is now my second favorite M.B. Feeney book and I am solidly #TeamJack from beginning to end.

    Jack and Andy are best friends. They're into the bar scene, indie music, and looking out for each other. Ruth and Nina are best friends (er, mates) as well. What happens when these two worlds collide?

    I'm not sure exactly why this book grabbed me so hard. I never partied. Ever. I only know what a hangover is because I've seen someone else with one. I'm not into indie music very often. But there was something compelling about the entire cast of characters, although Nina got the least screen time and felt the least developed.

    Maybe I fell into the book because it felt so real. I'm pretty sure if I went to London and went to a bar, I'd find a Jack working the tap. Andy would roll in later. Nina and Ruth would show up, in a group of friends, and there would be flirting. I'd even understand what they were saying because I've seen it all in this book.

    It's not a strict romance novel. It's... coming of age with a romantic twist. The sex is (happily, for me) not prominent, but there is a steamy scene or two. It's just not in your face.

    There's some light editing stuff, which I mention only because *I* notice such things, but it's very light and I'm guessing the average reader isn't going to notice. (I wish, sometimes, I was the average reader.) Even with my obsessive need for punctuation perfection, I blasted through this book in less than 48 hours. That's when you know the story has grabbed me.

    So, if you have a few good summer days, this is a perfect beach read. Pick it up, have a go, and get an appreciation for the 90's London bar scene.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful story with a 90's flavour
    Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2017
    Great story, with the British feel that I have always loved from this author but also an added bonus of being set in the 90's (absolutely love the songs used as a backdrop).

    In this story, we meet Jack, and his best friend Andy, who are living their lives as single blokes while flatting together in London. With university almost over, Jack's spending his time studying and working at the local pub while Andy's already working as a mechanic. The last thing either of them expects is to meet girls they want more than a fling with.

    Witty, wonderful dialogue with characters who are flawed (yes Andy I mean you lol) and likeable at the same time. Told mostly from Jack's POV, we also gain insight into Ruth, the girl Jack meets when he least expects it. Her occasional POV adds an even greater depth to the story. It's got a bit of everything - romance as well as situations that test even the strongest of friendships.

    Recommend this read.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Brings back memories!
    Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2017
    I was really looking forward to reading this - I was born in the second half of the 80s but still have a good memory of the 90s, so I was excited to be thrown back in time!

    With Jack & Andy being best mates for practically half their life, it was inevitable that they were eventually going to move in together. Though they led two different lives - Jack, following his dreams at Uni with a part time job, and Andy, following his of going straight into full time work and becoming a mechanic. Jack, head in his studies; Andy, a bit of a man ho. Until they meet Ruth & Nina - also best friends.

    Joining the boys & girls on their ride was great. As usual from M B Feeney we get a mix of serious and humour, and they were perfectly well balanced. Their story was totally believable, and you could actually imagine these guys being your friends, or living their journey. It was a bit rocky at times, but that's what happens when you're torn between love & friends, right?

    In some parts I would have liked a bit more as it felt a bit jumpy at points, but all in all it was a great throwback story that will induce memories if you were a 90s teen!

    4.0 out of 5 stars 90's Brit Pop Heaven
    Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2017
    Girls and Boys by MB Feeney
    A solid ☆☆☆☆
    First off, it was the cover that drew me in, and then I read the synopsis. I read the words ‘90’s Brit Pop’ and I just knew I had to read it.
    You’re on a journey with these characters from the get go and the story focuses around Jack and Andy and their friendship. Both are unique in their own right, but it’s Jack that stood out as the main protagonist. #TeamJack
    I loved almost everything about this read. I loved the dialogue, the witty banter between the boys and I loved Feeney’s ability to weave a sentence so intelligently.
    I loved the female characters; Nina and Ruth both could’ve been me growing up in the 90’s, and I really related to them.
    The only negative thing I have to say about this book, is the fact that I needed more information about their backgrounds, and would’ve loved a more emotional connection between all the characters.
    This did not deter me from wanting to read more of this great writers books in the future.
    ♥ I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review ♥

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Fantastic Read
    Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2017
    I was given an ARC copy of this in exchange for an honest review. Having read two other books by this author I was more than happy to do this. This is not the kind of book where you’ll find high drama but it is a gently paced story about Jack and his friend Andy and the life they lead in London after leaving their home. You will also meet Nina and Ruth who become friends when arriving in London. Their lives entwine with Jack and Andy’s and what follows is a story packed with LOL moments, love, betrayal and friendships. The pacing is perfect and the characters are so well written that I can picture them clearly. Everyone knows a Jack or an Andy. Another well-written book from an author who’s a natural. I look forward to reading Andy’s story in the near future.

    As a 90s girl, I absolutely loved this story and all the memories it evoked! Jack and Andy were both great characters, and it was fun to watch them grow, stumbling along the way as we all do, and then figuring out a way to move forward. Their friendship was fantastic, and MB Feeney wrote from the male POV with apparent ease. This is the perfect book for a bit of nostalgia!

    Although I'm probably a tad young to have experienced all the references first hand, I do love the 90s and this was a brilliant throwback to those simpler days when life was easier. No phones, no social media - God I miss it after reading this! I loved the friendship of Jack and Andy, and found their banter really 'real' and engaging. Definitely a fab book, really enjoyed inform start to finish.
