"The Chronicles of Jay South: Two Tales of One Birth" by James Southern tells the heartfelt story of Vivian, a teenage mother, as recounted by her son, Jay E. South. Vivian finds out that she is pregnant at age 16, and the shame and embarrassment that often came with it were not something too many young ladies would have wanted to deal with. Through his lens, we are able to see the immense challenges that Vivian faced, from her unsupportive baby daddy, Gary, to bullying at school, to a difficult pregnancy and premature birth that left her and the child in a coma. Will Gary finally accept his responsibilities as a father, or will he continue to shirk his duties?

The author ensured that this book was a great read. One major theme that stood out for me in this book is the power of family. This book shows the significance of a loving support system, especially in the midst of difficulty. Vivian's story is a testament to the healing power of love and support. I enjoyed reading about the various characters in this book; my favorite has to be Mr. Marion. Despite having no blood relation to Vivian or her unborn child, Mr. Marion goes above and beyond to ensure that Gary steps up to his responsibilities. I enjoyed the humorous part of this book. Equally, the author ensured that, though seemingly a long read, it was engaging and had a smooth-flowing nature. I enjoyed the author's choice of vocabulary. I remember sitting there, taking a break, and asking myself, When last did you see the word discombobulated? I found it interesting and exciting.

My least favorite thing about this book is the number of characters in it. With so many people introduced throughout the story, it was at times challenging to focus on who was who and their respective relationships with each other. But that did not take much away from the quality of this book itself, and I would rate it a very high five out of five. I was mostly impressed by the quality of the editing. This book has no errors.

I recommend this book to those interested in the experiences of teenage pregnancy.
