This book is masterfully composed. The catch phrase "The Hate U Give meets Get Out" is actually a really adequate description of this book, because not only does it tackle issues like police brutality and racism, it also has a bit of a thriller aspect to it. The writing was engaging and each sister had a distinct voice that brought something more to the story. Another great 2021 release for the books!
Graphic: Racism, Police brutality, Kidnapping
