NIARA: in one summer a young girl could lose it all...
(a coming of age story set in Philadelphia)
1. Prologue by Elizabeth Griffin [Reviews - 19] (5549 words)
NIARA, is the first book that I have written and self-published. It is young adult fiction. NIARA is a coming of age story set in the city of Philadelphia during the 1980's. It is a part of THE URBAN GIRL SERIES which is available on AMAZON. I hope you enjoy the read. Thanks.
2. Chapter 1 by Elizabeth Griffin [Reviews - 2] (5446 words)
I love writing about inner city teens. The characters in my books reflect a time period in the 1980's when life was exciting and new for me. Rap was new on the scene of music and Salt-N-Pepa was one of the female rap sensations of that time.
I wanted to show that era in young adult fiction. You will read about pay phones, walkmans and a lots of the gadgets from that time The slang and language used in the book is slightly different from today, but I believe you will be able to follow the story.
I haven't read NIARA in years and I find myself laughing at some of the terms used in the book. I hope you enjoy NIARA and follow The Urban Girl Series on Amazon. Thanks.
