The hate you give e book full#

Every moment, every detail gives insight into a world that not everyone understands. There wasn't a single word that felt like fluff or filler. I haven't been this captured by a book since Sarah's Key. All in all, it was still a great listen!!! I need to pick up my own copy soon. We see so many people get hurt and just wish we couldвЂ™ve gotten the chance to know the person behind the tragedy. I guess that shows the sadness of the whole topic in a way. But I wouldвЂ™ve just loved to fall in love with KhalilвЂ™s personality as well. I fell in love with Starr because I learned about her personality. I feel like there couldвЂ™ve been a lot more to KhalilвЂ™s character so the reader couldвЂ™ve felt more personal with him.

In general, I didnвЂ™t give it the full five stars because I would have really liked to see a lot more of the characters interacting with each other. I genuinely believe it is a subject that needs to be talked about more. I enjoyed the way this book touched on the subject of police brutality. It made me realize that maybe I should also stand up for what is right instead of wishing for changes. You have to stand up for whatвЂ™s right no matter how much you get knocked down. It taught me that nothing will happen if you just sit there and take the beatings. That way, if you guys wanna read it you totally should! I learned that there is power in my voice. Instead of saying what this book is about and spoiling it, IвЂ™d like to say what I learned from it. There were moments where I had to stop the audio and take a break just to get myself together. I enjoyed this book mostly because I LIVE AND BREATHE for books that are from the perspective of a POC. I had the honor of experiencing my first time listening to an audiobook with it too! The performance was absolutely amazing and made me FEEL. вЂњAt an early age I learned that people make mistakes, and you have to decide if their mistakes are bigger than your love for them.вЂќ Quotes from: Angie Thomas, The Hate U Give - This book blew it out of the park in a lot of ways.вЂпёЏ вЂњSometimes you can do everything right and things will still go wrong. It could also endanger her life.ДЄnd don't miss On the Come Up, Angie Thomas's powerful follow-up to The Hate U Give. What everyone wants to know is: what really went down that night? And the only person alive who can answer that is Starr.Д«ut what Starr does - or does not - say could upend her community. Some cops and the local drug lord try to intimidate Starr and her family. Protesters are taking to the streets in KhalilвЂ™s name. Some are calling him a thug, maybe even a drug dealer and a gangbanger. Soon afterward, his death is a national headline. The uneasy balance between these worlds is shattered when Starr witnesses the fatal shooting of her childhood best friend Khalil at the hands of a police officer. Sixteen-year-old Starr Carter moves between two worlds: the poor neighborhood where she lives and the fancy suburban prep school she attends. 'A powerful, in-your-face novel.'
