About An Evening with Margaret McDonald

Listed Under Books Events / Talks and Lectures Events

Glasgow Boys is a fantastic YA novel about young love, negative emotions and the foster system in Scotland.

Two boys can't remember the last time they had a hug.
Meet Finlay. He's studying for his nursing degree at Glasgow University, against all the odds. But coming straight from care means he has no support network.
How can he write essays, find paid work and NOT fall for the beautiful boy at uni, when he's struggling to even feed himself?
Meet Banjo. He's trying to settle in with his new foster family and finish high school. But he can't forget all that has happened, and his anger and fear keep boiling over.
How can he hold on to the one good person in his life, when his outbursts keep threatening his already uncertain future?
Can Finlay and Banjo let go of the past before it drags them under?
