The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas
5.0
"The Hate U Give" by Angie Thomas is a thought-provoking, emotional roller coaster of a story.
This is something worth reading as it talks about something real.
Starr Carter experiences what many young minority girls go through when faced with oppression from the police. Starr re-evaluates who her true friends are as she goes through a journey of re-assessing who she is when faced with a murder of a friend. A police officer who is supposed to protect any community at all costs gets off scot free, the consequences are of that affects the minority so much more than the police officers.
Angie Thomas wrote an amazingly well-written story that made me cry, laugh, and smile throughout the story as it progresses on themes that needs to be addressed by speaking up as staying silent has its own consequences to all parties.
