The First Part Last, a fiction young adult novel by Angela Johnson. There are plenty of books about how young mothers are left alone to raise a child on their own because the father is absent. But this book is about sixteen year old Bobby, and his struggles of being a single father. The chapters switch off from “then” and “now” which is equivalent to before and after Feather (his daughter) was born by his girlfriend, Nia. From the beginning of the pregnancy, he and Nia had both decided to give the baby up for adoption but after an immeasurably painful moment in Boobys life makes him change his decision. I personally enjoyed this book because it gives you emotions from before and after his life changing experience. Also because unlike other books, it shows the perspective of a single teen and his experiences as a single father. Read this book to find out some of the struggles that Bobby have to face daily.
