(Young Adult) Sixteen-year-old Starr straddles two worlds, the poor black neighborhood where her father runs the local grocery and her mother works at the clinic, and the private urban school she attends. She successfully keeps these two separate until she witnesses the fatal shooting of her friend Khalil. Because Khalil was killed by a police officer, Starr feels pressure from both her worlds to respond in different ways. Angie Thomas has chosen a timely topic for her debut novel and handles the subject with intelligence and honesty.
