Not what I was expecting. I really enjoyed the twists and turns. Can’t wait to see what happens next!

Meghan Quinn is amazing! I am not Irish (I’m Scottish and then some – my grandpa only claimed Scotland when I asked what our history was), nor do I pretend to know the culture well, but this book made me feel I was right there amongst a big old Irish family. The language, the food, the beer, the pub, it was all amazing.
We have Fiona who is surrounded by this amazing Irish family, her brothers, her ma and da. I felt like I was right there amongst them as her brothers were pounding on each other over some insult and then I was watching everything be ok as they were completely fine with each other the next moment.
Then we have Booker, a world famous director who has completely changed his appearance to get away from it all and escape into a small town in Vermont, Warblers Point. I was smiling as he ordered a martini and the brothers let him have it for daring to order a drink only a sheila would order. From there we get to know the family and Booker even more intimately. I love how this family interacts with each other. It was real. I know I said we aren’t Irish, but I can remember my mama shooing my brothers outside so they wouldn’t mess up her kitchen floor when they came to brawls. (It’s a family joke.) My family is close like that, we can kick each others butts one moment and be kicking the world’s on one another’s behalf in the next. I would hurt anyone who hurt my brothers or my baby sister, I loved Liam, Finn, and Bradon’s protectiveness over Fiona.
The relationship between Booker and Fiona was amazing. I was hoping that she would get over her fear of getting hurt and choose Booker. I can’t tell you if she did, that would spoil it all for you, I will just say you should read this book and find out.
All the characters, Ma, Da, Fiona, her brothers (their relationships – or lack there of in Bradon’s case), Booker, Blaire, they all had me smiling and hopeful and wishing that they all would have the best. The interactions between her Ma and Da cracked me up at times. It is an amazing family that Meghan has written here.
I could not wait to read Beers Lies and Alibis when I got done with Beers Hens and Irishmen. I knew it would be just as amazing as the first book in the series was.
Meghan Quinn, you are on my favorite author list. I adore your writing!
Thank you so much for my copy of Beers Hens and Irishmen! It was a fun amazing read!
