Overview

Elizabeth ""Licha"" Rivera is still in Hartford. Still in Frog Hollow. Still near Park Street. But when her family moves to Affleck Street, everything begins to feel different. In City Girl Meets Affleck Street, Book 3 of the City Girl series, Licha steps beyond the old block and into a new season of life. Affleck, Ward, Park, and Lawrence become her new world as she prepares to leave childhood behind and step toward Hartford Public High School. This coming-of-age memoir follows Licha through one unforgettable summer filled with change, friendship, first work experiences, family pain, young love, jealousy, misunderstanding, Puerto Rico, the Coleman Brothers carnival, and the sounds of worship rising from Lawrence Street. As her connection with Neftaly deepens, Licha begins to see that love in the inner city is never simple. Sweet moments can be interrupted by street pressure. New friendships can open doors. Misunderstandings can send a young heart running. And sometimes growing up means learning how to face what hurts instead of running from it. With honesty, humor, faith, and heart, City Girl Meets Affleck Street captures a young girl standing between the old block and a new future, between childhood and high school, between the pull of the city and the purpose God is placing inside her. This book is for every girl and woman who has ever had to start over, walk into a new season, and learn how to keep her identity while everything around her is changing.
