Then I knew to start there because I have a guilty pleasure for reading books like Boys Don’t Cry. And then I found out about her newest novel – Boys Don’t Cry – a 300 page story of teen parenting, sexuality and love. Criminal of me, I know…but I didn’t know where to start. I have never actually read any of Malorie Blackman’s novels. But at the same time, all around his family, the world is collapsing (no, not literally…) Dante has to cope, even if only for the baby’s sake. And then she’s gone – leaving the baby with her shocked father. He’s waiting for his A Level results, when his ex-girlfriend arrives at his door with a baby. But it’s happened to Dante, a 17 year old with high hopes. People don’t often think of the father’s side of a teen pregnancy.
