The Hate U Give


Book #50 Read in 2017
The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas

This is an excellent book which I would recommend to young adult and adults readers alike.  It is a powerful read.  Starr witnesses her friend Khahil being shot to death by a police officer who thought he had a gun (it was a hairbrush).  Starr needs to tell what happens but that is easier said than done.  This book accurately portrays the difficulty of race relations and police brutality.  Well done.  I borrowed this book from the public library.
