Like Sisters on the Homefront by Rita Williams-Garcia

5.0

14 year old Gayle is sent to the South with her son Jose to her Aunt and Uncle’s house. Gayle is determined to get back to New York, but begins to learn and build roots by learning about her family history, and spending time with her cousin Cookie. She learns about her family’s faith and about her own place within her family’s history. This work is touching, difficult and openly discusses sexual experiences, thoughts, and boundaries. Tw: abortion.
