(4) YA Surviving Southside series. Lucy is looking forward to a bright future with her boyfriend Luke--until she gets pregnant. Now that future will include abortion, adoption, or keeping the baby; as Lucy acknowledges, "the choices all sucked." An ambiguous ending keeps readers guessing. The problem-novel text grows melodramatic, but reluctant readers may be drawn in by the high-interest (if simplistically treated) topic.
