内容简介
······
Inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement, Angie Thomas’s searing debut about an ordinary girl in extraordinary circumstances addresses issues of racism and police violence with intelligence, heart, and unflinching honesty. Soon to be a major motion picture from Fox 2000/Temple Hill Productions.
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. Khalil was unarmed.
Soon afterward, his death is a national headline. Some are calling him a thug, maybe even a drug dealer and a gangbanger. Protesters are taking to the streets in Khalil’s name. Some cops and the local drug lord try to intimidate Starr and her family. What everyone wants to know is: what really went down that night? And the only person alive who can answer that is Starr.
But what Starr does—or does not—say could upend her community. It could also endanger her life.

"Sometimes you can do everything right and things will still go wrong. The key is to never stop doing right."——剛開始看的時候還很懷疑,但是看到一半就非常佩服了。
前50%读完,后50%没时间看,只能听完。
好友被白人警察枪杀后,作为目击者的16岁Starr如何挣扎在家庭、友情、爱情之中。这本书把racism这个问题放在青少年小说中,加上青少年本身面临的许多麻烦,情感的各种纠结处理的非常好。推荐!
我就喜欢Starr这样的女孩子,tough,在矛盾中不断了解自我,不轻易妥协,坚持自己认为值得坚持的,还有,懂得及时和不值得的友情说再见。要是我有女儿一定会努力教…
我枯了,做人太南了
