Horror's Greatest Hits
A Goodreads user asked this question about On the Come Up:
I was not a fan of the hate u give because I felt it was kind of racist towards white people and the vocabulary was a bit difficult for me since my first language is not english (for example, saying 'thang' instead of 'thing'). Besides that, I thought Starr was a bit childish at times. Do you think I would enjoy this book?

I can understand…moreOk, well first-off, she's a literal teen, so childishness is pretty normal, but also how exactly is it "racist towards white people"?
