From the first chapter I knew this was going to be a powerful book. I had already heard great reviews and it absolutely lived up to the hype. Narrated by Star, the main character who is a young lady growing up in a rough neighborhood. She has seen things that nobody should ever have to see. Star is a brave girl with a strong voice. I loved her character and her family. This was the first book I’ve read about police brutality and it was heartbreaking. I really enjoyed this book and agree with others this should be recommended reading for everyone. It really was an eye opener to this topic. Not only was this sad but it was funny at times. I loved the Harry Potter references. Great job Angie Thomas! 5 Stars!!
