So I finished it. And woah. I really wasn’t expecting to like this book so much, but I really liked how real it was - some books/authors choose not to visit controversial topics like racism and police brutality, but this book tackled it in a way that was very applicable to real life, unlike Noughts and Crosses (which I still love obviously). But this was very different to things I’ve read - and I enjoyed it.

So I’m up to part three - I actually love Chris. He’s so supportive and stuff. But yeah I’m really excited to see how this part unfolds. Since we skipped past the immediate aftermath of the hearing, I will get to see how the after effects have played out - I’m really curious. IT BETTER HAVE WORKED. THEY BETTER HAVE LISTENED TO STARR OR ELSE.

Ok so we’re up to Part II and it’s getting quite interesting - I’m interested to see what has happened in five months, because a lot can happen within that time, but nothing also could’ve happened. I don’t really know what’s going to happen for the rest of the book, but I guess we’ll see what it looks like. I really hope Hailey gets her comeuppance. She deserves it, she’s a total skank.

Omg it’s getting a lot better. I’m really excited for the action to start and for Starr to come out and tell the world her and Khalil’s story, in more than just pictures. And now I actually hate Hailey. What is actually up with her. Also Chris is amazing, I think he’s really nice and he and Starr go so well together, he’s so polite and kind to her.

I’m enjoying it a lot more now that we’re getting into the book. Also, idk what it is about this book, but I really can picture all the places that Starr mentions in the story: her home, her school, Uncle Carlos’ house, the den…yeah. Pretty good, overall.
