The Hate U Give 
Sixteen-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.
Privilege is invisible to those who have it
For all the white people who said this book was racist, let me tell you one thing : racism was invented by white people. You can feel prejudiced or discriminated against, but dont call it racism.Im a biracial person - hi my dads familys from Vietnam. And as a biracial person I found this book quite hard to read sometimes mostly because of all the comments on interracial relationships. But now again, the way I have to deal with racism isnt the same way Black people have to deal with it, so

UPDATE DEC 4/5, 2017Yesterday I found out that this book has been banned in a Texas school district (Katy ISD). And honestly??? Im so angry right now. Yall probably dont know this, but I was born and currently live in Texas (hence my use of the word yall), so Im just extremely!! frustrated!! with the state I call home!!!!The hypothetical reasons for this ban are really, truly, insanely stupid. They say that it might be because of sexual contentsex was literally mentioned only TWICE in this
What can you say when you've read the book of the year, and one of the books of the decade? That's what most people would say. I am going by the consensus. Personally, I didn't think this book is a masterpeice. I still don't, after some headscratching. This book is good, but is it 'To Kill a Mockingbird' good?I don't think so. There are some glitches in the book. There is an unnecessary mystery, where for the most part we don't know what really happened to Starr's friend. But as you see, I gave
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
I dont know if I can say anything about this book that hasnt been said before, and better.Sometimes, a book transcends the typical criteria for a rating or review. Its not the plot, or prose, or characters that count, but the story itself. The sheer significance of the work negates any need to dwell on the details that tend to make a book what it is.This is the best example of that phenomenon I can think of.This is a story of unreal importance that came out exactly when it was needed and made
