Sam's behavior
After Sam's trip to Hastings Alicia tells him that she's pregnant (what he already expected, I think).
They're telling it their parents and after a scan they know that it is a boy.A few months later they go to NTC ,but there are only older couples and no teenagers what I really found funny.Then Sam's mother and Marc ask him if Marc could live in their house and because Sam got no problems with him it isn't a problem for him. It's good and nice that they ask him first.Then the second weird look in the future starts. Sam is going to college and has to care for his son but without Alicia,they aren't together anymore. When he comes back his mother is really pregnant but he ain't got a problem with that.
After Sam's childish behavior (like to run away to Hastings and only having himself in mind) he has learned to behave like an adult and not to run away from his problems but to deal with all problems . That's an important point in the story for Sam cause now it seems to end in good terms.

The weird part
Ok, the relationship of Sam and Alicia continues,but they don't meet often anymore.Then one time Alicia calls Sam and as they meet in Starbucks she tells him that she could be pregnant. Now comes the weird part. Sam goes home and talks to his TH poster.Then I didn't really know what's going on because it changed suddenly into a dream or something. Sam dreamed about his future as father from Rufus with Alicia and that his mom was pregnant too. I don't know what I should think about that, but in my opinion it doesn't fit in the story because it destroys the fluency of the story,it's like a cut dial. I didn't like this part , that's a big minus for the book from me.

The first few chapters...
my expectations were correct , this book is quite more interesting as the other books we already read in school.
I think that's because it tells exactly the part of life we are in due to our age. Sam ,a fifteen year old boy loves skating and started to get interested in girls. He meets Alicia and they come together and so on. But I don't think that many boys in his age are like him cause its very crazy when he is talking with his TH poster.That could be because his parents are divorced and he doesn't see his father often. Maybe the poster replaces his real father. Since Sam and Alicia are together he just got eyes for her; over a few pages the whole thing the author describes or is talking about is Alicia. That disturbes a little bit. Then they have sex without a condom or any other contraceptives. In my opinion it's stupid to be not safety but I can understand Sam cause boys often can't control themselves and are under pressure when they see a chance to have sex the first time. But nonetheless it is no book,which I would go on to read, because it's not catching in my opinion.

Expections
I expect from the book a real teenager growing up with all ups and downs. I didn't read an english book yet so I dont know if I will come clear with the language.I think this book will be more interesting as the other books we already read because it's up to date, but I'm not sure.Actually I don't like novels or some other kinds of
books from school to read,but I think the topic in this book is interesting for every teenager.
