The Hate U Give

If you didn’t read it then, read it now.

10 years. 5 million readers. 32 languages. One story.

Now in a new edition, this iconic novel is now available with a fresh jacket, sprayed edges and a new foreword from the author.

Starr Carter lives between two worlds: the neighbourhood she calls home and the wealthy school where she’s one of the only Black students. But when Starr witnesses the fatal shooting of her childhood best friend by a police officer, she must decide whether to stay silent – or risk everything to speak the truth.

Powerful, contentious and unforgettable, Angie Thomas’s groundbreaking debut is a story of courage, community and the life-changing power of speaking out.

“What’s the point of having a voice if you’re gonna be silent?”
