pick#MusicalNewYear #ARC #NetGalley #WhenIGrowUp This coming of age debut features misfit Oksana, a bright but lonely little girl born in Kiev who immigrates to the US with her parents and boisterous Baba (grandmother). Each chapter is a different age in Oksana‘s life, from Kindergarten to adulthood. These snapshots also offer the progression from American Dream to real life hardships. I was immersed in Oksana‘s journey. 4 stars #BabaRules
