THE HATE YOU GIVE BOOK REVIEW

I recommend The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas for young readers because it is truly one of those books that opens up your eyes and makes you see things differently. The book highlights Starr Carter, an African American girl trapped in a white girls life. The book surrounds the death of her friend Khalil at the hands of a white police officer. Starr analyzes the predicament throughout the book as well as talking about her past trauma. Her boyfriend Chris is white and doesn't understand her purpose for protest. This book has it all, and is something that I think young reader's should not only use to grow as reader's but into young adults as well.
