A review by amarasanti
The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas

5.0

Excellent book, especially for a first novel. This book could really be considered non-fiction because sadly this type of event happens in our world on a daily basis. The author very clearly draws a picture of each of the characters. You feel like you know them and have a stake in what happens to them. You can feel the struggles of each person and you can learn a lot about what it would be like if you were in their shoes. I love that, with her first novel, she focused on such a charged subject. One that needs people to continue to shine a light on it. Way to go Angie Thomas! I for one will be looking forward to your next book.
