Boys Don't Cry Book Review

This book moved me into tears it was honestly so beautiful and heart wrenching and I felt happy, sad and anger too for the things the boys went through in this book!

We meet seventeen year old Dante Bridgeman who thought he was getting his A Level results so he can go off to university but his ex girlfriend was at the door with a baby called Emma that turns out to be his daughter Dante world turned upside down as he navigates how to be a teenage dad his brother Adam was also struggling due to his sexuality because he is Gay and the whole thing becomes difficult for the two boys and you walk through the battles and struggle seeing them trying to cope with Dante daughter Emma and life!

Blackman made me cherish her characters so much she opened such an insight of what boys go through especially black boys in society boys are not meant to cry because you have to man up but this book made me realise boys should be allowed to cry because emotions are vaild this book would be good if you have male siblings or friends to make discussions about being a black boy or just a boy in general I think it’s important for girls to understand male emotions too and I love to read about boys because being an only child with no siblings sometimes I wish I had a brother someone I can discuss this book I read with because he’ll probably be quite interested in it I believe this book should be in every school and boy’s bedroom to educate our sons about manhood and what being a boy in black society is like!

I didn't love this book to be honest I felt bored reading it because there wasnt anything interesting a lot apart from the whole twitter drama and I wanted it to be more punchy, I found the writing style to be quite cringe and slow reading and I didn't have any connection for anyone in the book at all maybe apart from Jack I did, I found him to be quite a dorky cutie to read about anyway I ...

How I Create My Characters?

Hello my fellow writers today I am going to talk about how I create my characters this idea was inspired by Lily If you want to know more her Instagram is @LilyAnnaWrites now let's get into this post! Q: so first of all you might want to know how do I create my characters names? A: basically I find names on baby name sites for my male characters I write more male characters than female because I feel there's something about writing boy characters that make my voice come out more, but everyone has a different taste of gender they write characters for. most people weren't a fan of me writing boy characters but I'm not changing the gender I write for to make anyone happy, anyway okay enough ranting about that we're moving on now! Q: the other you might want to know is how old are my characters generally?
