Points of View

For the first part last.
For the first part last is in first person its shows where a the story  is narrated by one character at a time( Bobby) and speaking about themselves. First-person in my story  may be singular, plural or multiple.  Bobby the main character is telling his story and how his life is changing because he has a baby girl now. Bobby is the main  character in the book because he tells us how his life is changing because he is having a baby girl and the author had put  him talking in first person . To me i feel like when i'm reading the story i hear him telling me the story and only him to me it seems to be way more clear. I think the author had picked Bobby to be the main character and the first person point of view because i think its more predictable to have the baby mom ( Nia ) as the main character just because she had Feather and she is the one with the problems ( the baby girl ) . Therefore i think the author was thinking outside the box and  by picking Bobby as the main character .Also Bobby has just as much to tell about his life and  life changing as it goes on. As Nia does too so therefore i think it is better if we hear it from someone else is point of view such as Bobby  .I like the way the Author had set up  the story , Angela the author had put it into a first person story and i find it better to understand if someone is just telling the story . It's easier to focus on what’s going on and stay on topic with the book and whos talking each time . Also is very creative to just listen to Bobby talk about the people around him and just hearing it from his point of view. If it was up to me i would not change the point of view because i like had Angela had put Bobby as his first person it give the book a creative taste to it and makes you want to understand this is what actually happen to teenagers that don’t use protection and having a baby. It changes peoples lives and im looking forward to how Bobby is going to keep his life with Feather and Nia .
