The First Part Last by Angela Johnson

Updated: May 14, 2021


Spoiler-Free Synopsis

Bobby's a classic urban teenager. He's restless. He's impulsive. But the thing that makes him different is this: He's going to be a father. His girlfriend, Nia, is pregnant, and their lives are about to change forever. Instead of spending time with friends, they'll be spending time with doctors, and next, diapers. They have options: keeping the baby, adoption. They want to do the right thing.

If only it was clear what the right thing was.




MY REVIEW

I really enjoyed this book. It shows different chapters/POVs of before he had a child and after he had her. This is a very short book, lasting only 132 pages long, but it is amazing. Accidentally read this before I read the second one, though. (oops?!) The first one in the series is 'Heaven' talking about a young girl being found on a bench and soon being adopted. I really do recommend this book, but four stars for lack of explanation between certain situations.
