Chronicle As Books The Hate U Give
A three-time winner of Goodreads Choice AwardsSixteen-year-old Starr Carter moves between two worlds: the poor neighborhood where she lives and the fancy suburban prep school she attends. The uneasy balance between these worlds is shattered when Starr witnesses the fatal shooting of her childhood best friend Khalil at the hands of a police officer. Khalil was unarmed.
Soon afterward, his death is a national headline. Some are calling him a thug, maybe even a drug dealer and a gangbanger. Protesters are taking to the streets in Khalil’s name. Some cops and the local drug lord try to intimidate Starr and her family. What everyone wants to know is: what really went down that night? And the only person alive who can answer that is Starr.
But what Starr does—or does not—say could upend her community. It could also endanger her life.

The truth casts a shadow over the kitchenpeople like us in situations like this become hashtags, but they rarely get justice. I think we all wait for that one time though, that one time when it ends right.Maybe this can be it. There are those books that are important and timely, worthy of reading because of the social and/or political message that they send. They fill a gap in the market; they make waves. They need to exist. And there are other books that are well-written, emotionally-chargedExcellent review!
congratulations, 2017 goodreads choice winner in both best YA fiction AND best debut goodreads author!!i rarely read realistic YA - if im going to read YA, i prefer fantasy or survival stuff where teens are in peril. but this was recommended to me by too many people to put aside "for later, and while there are plenty of teens in peril, this sure aint fantasy. it earns every one of its rave reviews; its an important, timely book that doesnt feel as though it was thrown together in order to cash
This is one of the best audiobooks I've listened to all year. If you are considering reading this one, listen to it. You wont regret it.
What's the point of having a voice if you're gonna be silent in those moments you shouldn't be?Every white person on this planet needs to read this book."Lack of opportunities. Corporate America don't bring jobs to our communities, and they damn sure ain't quick to hire us. Then, even if you do have a high school diploma, so many schools in our neighbourhoods don't prepare us well enough. Our schools don't get the resources to equip you. It's easier to find some crack than it is to find a good
When you're reading books like The Hate U Give, you're reading someone's decision against silence.This book has made me feel every single possible emotion at the same time. It was truly incredible and I have SO MUCH to say about it I wish I could actually just send everyone a howler containing the entire script of this book instead. What's the point of having a voice if you're gonna be silent in those moments you shouldn't be? In all honesty, The Hate U Give has made me realize just how simply
