The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas
5.0
Believe. The. Hype.
This book plays no games! The Hate U Give is amazing, a gem in an over saturated market filled with reproductions. It's a Black Lives Matter book but it's so much more. It's a real and authentic voice. So many YA books are both forced and feels so fake, like the last time the writer was in a room with teenager or new adult, it was 1999. The same can not be said for this book.
I have not read a book that made me go yup, daaaaang, Yaaaaaasss, whhhaaaaaat so much in a span of a chapter or two in my entire bookworm life.
Thomas created a world filled with precise and intricate characters. The reader is invested and convinced. We aren't fed bull or whimsy.
Thomas writes with such style and grace. She's the real deal. Chick has legit talent and I'm here for all of it!
