About the book
Starr Carter, a sixteen-year-old girl, lives in two worlds: the underprivileged neighborhood where she lives and the posh suburban prep school where she goes. When Starr watches her childhood best friend Khalil being fatally shot by a police officer, the uncomfortable equilibrium between both worlds is destroyed. Khalil didn't have any weapons. His death becomes a nationwide headline not long after. He's been dubbed a thug, a drug dealer, and a gangbanger by some. In Khalil's honor, protesters are marching to the streets. Starr and her family are being harassed by cops and a local drug lord. What everyone truly wants to know is what happened that night. And Starr is the only person living who can answer it.
