Growing Up Sina

Natasha Ria El-Scari does it again with her fifth book and first novel, "Growing Up Sina". While Natasha is most known for her poetry, performances and commentary, here, she takes a turn and introduces the young African American girl Sina, who lives in the Midwest and visits her grandparents in the South. Sina navigates her girlhood with friends that will take their own journeys to adulthood. Sina comes of age in the 1990s, when African American communities are most impacted by the surge of crack cocaine. Her progressive mother, Nelly Ruth, makes sure Sina is prepared for life. Nothing could go wrong, right? Sina's life takes a sudden change when she meets her cousin, Juke, during the summer. Their epic adventures lead them to the joys and angst of adolescence and even to each other. Follow Sina from young girlhood and through her college years in this classic American tale, the one that is rarely ever told but often experienced. "Growing Up Sina" is worth the read
