![]() His parents actually go along with his plan to be the fake father which indicates how damaged they believe him to be. I love how Non keeps us guessing, both about who the real father is and about what Aaron actually did.Īaron in particular is such a vividly drawn and complex character, he’s clearly trying to have a fresh start but he is eaten up with guilt. Doh! Each entry is also dated, not in a diary way but just for locating the action in time. I’m so dense I’ve only just realised that the split into First, Second and Third relate to trimesters of pregnancy. They are drawn to each other, and not in the way you’d expect, when Aaron agrees to be her fake baby daddy. This was told from the alternating viewpoints of Hannah – her trouble being her teen pregnancy, and Aaron – his trouble being his dark past which has bought him to a new school in the middle of his GCSE year. I expected it to be a UK version of Juno and what I got was a nuanced and clever read. ![]() On Saturday as part of UKYADay I read Trouble by Non Pratt. ![]()
