The girl who couldnt say No [Review]


Synopsis
A sharp, occasionally shocking, memoir that will change how you look at young, single mothers, The girl who couldn't say no is also an amusing look at dating as a single twenty-something with a teenager and a toddler! The author tells the story of how she came to find herself pregnant at 15 and how she coped with pregnancy, birth and homework. And, perhaps surprisingly, it's not all a complete disaster. From the realities of teenage parenthood, the pitfalls of dating, family, work and a five year celibacy, Tracy has covered a lot of ground - and is proud of it. But mostly she is proud of her two healthy, well-adjusted and happy children.

Review
I had seen people talking about this book, and thought i would give it a try. I was fully expecting the usual teen woe is me attitude. Well wasnt i pleasantly surprised when i never got any. Tracy tells hers story of getting pregnant at 15, and all that follows. I actually did really enjoy this book, I dont know if that was because i could kind of releate to Tracy (i was teenage mum just not single) I laughed with her and at times felt like i could of cryed. Tracy tells it how it is, no sugar coated my baby slept all night, Her honesty should be saluted 

I give this book 
4/5
