Sincerely Sicily by Tamika Burgess
4.5
hopeful informative inspiring lighthearted medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

A well-paced, empowering realistic fiction novel on Afro-Latina identity, hair pride, relationships, starting middle school, and finding your voice. Sicily's challenges and even mistakes are relatable and believable and readers will learn a lot about Black Panamanian culture along the way.
