The Hate U Give |
A must for anyone who enjoys writing for young adults. Sixteen-year old Starr is the only witness when her best friend, Khalil, is shot by a white policeman for no apparent reason. She herself inhabits two worlds - her own community and the posh white school she attends. How should she react? Immediate, challenging, uncomfortable, thought provoking but ultimately uplifting.
(Ferelith Hordon - bwl 87 Winter 2018) |
