I cannot imagine simply reading this book without the AUDIO VERSION, as it was simply amazing and powerful and perfectly done, imo. Kudos to the narrator. Even if you HAVE read this book, it is worth checking out the audio....if you were thinking of trying out AUDIBLE for the 1st time, consider trying THIS title as your '1st free book' on the site.--Jen from Quebec :0)

This book tackles a serious subject - but it tackles it with heart, and love - yet showing the hate, and anger as well. I don't know how the author did it, but she wrote a brilliant complex novel and made it relatable / educational for everyone. Seriously - give this book a try no matter how you think you may not relate. I guarantee you'll fall for the characters and this book.

Sixteen-year-old Starr lives in the “hood” of Garden Heights but goes to a private school in the suburbs, where her uncle and most of her friends live. But she still has a few childhood friends in Garden Heights, and one of them, Khalil, is driving her home one night when the police stop them and Khalil is shot dead. Starr’s life is then a mess of grief, fear, and lies, and she has to face questions of who she really is and what it might cost to speak her truth.
