Cornering the market of young adult fiction and adult fiction, Familial Sins serves as a transitionary read that is advanced in content yet resonates with the upbringing, socioemotional development, and conflicts familiar to African American females 16 years and up. This is not your typical street literature. While street life is depicted, it is not necessarily glamorized, and readers are given the message of turning turmoil into triumph despite having all odds against you. This motif is present in the inclusions of higher education, entrepreneurship, and global career aspirations throughout the
storyline.

"The novel is meant to enlighten and entertain. Even the trailer is intriguing," Kenni states. "A lot of times we feel like unicorns when we go through trauma, but it is important to know that these feelings are universal even though your personal experiences are unique. It's also important to know that what you've been through doesn't define you."



Familial Sins is available via ebook and paperback on Amazon.
