CITY ROOTS: THE NEIGHBORHOOD REVIEWS
A MUST READ!
"Enjoyed the way the way the author gives a love/hate relationship with some of the characters. One minute you feel one way and as you keep reading, you feel another. I love an intentional story! Can we get book 2, already?"- D. Friedman
REALLY ENJOYED THIS BOOK!
"Took me a few days to read it! I read it on my commute to and from work, lunch break and before bed. Needless to say, I couldn’t put it down! "-Dina Velasquez via Amazon
GREAT READ!
"Really enjoyed this book! Fell in love with some of the characters and disliked others. She did a great job with character and storyline development."-Neet26 via B&N.com
WELL DEVELOPED STORY!
The book City Roots features well developed characters that can be relatable to people of all ages from teens to adults. While reading, I found myself experiencing a range of emotions as I fell in love with some of the characters while not liking others that much. It took me on an emotional roller coaster ride. I enjoyed how the book kept me engaged and turning the pages making it a quick read that held my intention until the end. The ending was a surprise. I wasn’t expecting, leaving me, excited to read book 2 . - R Kennedy
AMAZING READ!
City Roots: The Neighborhood was an amazing read! A well written story that we can all relate to! I instantly fell in love with Melissa. Without giving away too much, I love the way Lu touched on every characters background to prepare the reader as a story developed. I had a four hour flight and started it waiting for departure , I couldn’t put it down! The way book one ended had me going back through the book to figure out who and how! Can’t wait for book 2!-Samantha P
CAPTIVATING!
The writing was captivating! The author made the characters feel so real, and I truly cared for them! The plot will keep you wanting more! Great book you won’t want to put it down!-DHardy, Apple Books Reviewer
About Lu the Author
Meet Lu!
Lucinda (Lu) has a love for many things. Running, baking, cooking to name a few but her love for reading is on the top of the list. Having accomplished many things in her life, Lu had always wanted to write a book. As many people can relate, she let her fears get in her head and was hesitant to take the leap of faith. That changed in late 2023, when Lucinda took the leap and set out on a journey that has been life changing, challenging and liberating.
Her first self published book City Roots: the Neighborhood is book one in a series, that is a love letter to background and heritage. Being a proud Cuban, Puerto Rican from the Bronx, NY, Lucinda hopes that her readers have all the same feels, she has when writing her books.
