I devoured The Hate U Give in a single weekend. Angie Thomas’ stunning portrait of a young Black girl, her community, and their response to the police shooting of her childhood friend is somehow light-hearted, deeply tragic, and wise beyond its YA label. It was Thomas’ first book and it debuted at the top of the NYT YA bestseller list, where it remained for 50 weeks. Needless to say, I’m excited to check out Thomas’ new book, On the Come Up, which comes with this opportunity to hear her speak.
