4.5

This book was well written and decently paced. I found the author could easily swim in and out of challenging topics and into light-hearted moments with ease. I really appreciated that aspect of the book a lot. I was choked up multiple times, shed tears, and laughed out loud as I experienced the story of Starr Carter and her family. I found that the material was presented in a manner that was very accessible without overly indulging in the violence. I also appreciated the inner monologue of the main character struggling between her two selves in two different cultures. I recommend this book to everyone.
