The First Part Last

I just finished reading The First Part Last by Angela Johnson. I really enjoyed this book. It's the story of a young couple, Nia and Bobby, and the birth of their baby girl, Feather. The story describes the hardships that the family faces. Working with young adults on a daily basis made this book touch my heart. I think The First Part Last makes it easy for young adults to relate their lives to the story. Self to text connections often make the story that much sweeter! Johnson does an excellent job of portraying the truth that so many young adults live.
