Sixteen-year-old Starr lives in two worlds: the poor neighbourhood where she was born and raised and her posh high school in the suburbs. The uneasy balance between them is shattered when Starr is the only witness to the fatal shooting of her unarmed best friend, Khalil, by a police officer. Now what Starr says could destroy her community. It could also get her killed.
Inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement, this is a powerful and gripping YA novel about one girl’s struggle for justice.

An incredible read with some hard hitting quotes and moments. A book of fiction that is sadly far too real. A must read and a great starting point for understanding the difficulties the minority face on a day to day basis. Outstanding!
A brilliantly written book – Very descriptive, you felt you were actually with the characters throughout the story. I would recommend!
This book rocks!
I would recommend everyone to read it!
