On the Come Up by Angie Thomas
3.0

I loved the Hate U Give and I wanted to love this. I appreciate what this book is trying to do. I think it tackles a lot of important things and is great for #weneeddiversebooks. I also think a lot of kids will like this book. I just could not connect with Bri! She was so hard to like. She was all rough edges. She just wanted to fight everyone at ever turn and I was not invested in her struggle. I love Angie Thomas and I will, of course pick up her next book, but this didn’t do it for me.
