Sixteen-year-old Starr Carter moves between two worlds: the poor
neighborhood where she lives and the fancy suburban prep school she
attends. 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.
On the Come Up
Sixteen-year-old Bri wants to be one of the greatest rappers of all
time. Or at least win her first battle. As the daughter of an
underground hip hop legend who died right before he hit big, Bri's got
massive shoes to fill. But it's hard to get your come up when you're
labeled a hoodlum at school, and your fridge at home is empty after your
mom loses her job. So Bri pours her anger and frustration into her first
song, which goes viral...for all the wrong reasons.
6 starred reviews * "Thomas continues to hold up that mirror with grace
and confidence. We are lucky to have her, and lucky to know a girl like
Bri." (New York Times Book Review)
