Book Review:
''Colombo Streets'' is a touching and inspiring young adult novel by Thisuri Wanniarachchi. This book tells the powerful story of Sarah, a teenage swimmer who dreams of reaching the top of her sport, only to face a devastating cancer diagnosis.

Wanniarachchi's writing is heartfelt and engaging, capturing the emotions of a young girl and her family as they navigate the challenges of illness and hope. The story also explores the background of Sarah's adopted sister, Indeevari, offering a poignant glimpse into the experiences of those affected by Sri Lanka's conflict.

This is a must-read for young adults and anyone who enjoys stories of courage, resilience, and the power of family. It is a promising debut from a young Sri Lankan writer. Highly recommended!
