El odio que das (Spanish Edition)

Starr es una chica de diecisis aos que vive entre dos mundos: el barrio pobre de gente negra donde naci y su escuela situada en un elegante barrio residencial blanco. El difcil equilibrio entre ambos se hace aicos cuando ella es testigo de la muerte a tiros de su mejor amigo Khalil a manos de un polica. A partir de ese momento todo lo que Starr diga acerca de la aterradora noche que cambi su vida podr ser usado de excusa por unos y como arma por otros. Y lo peor de todo es que tanto los de un lado como los de otro la tienen en el punto de mira y amenazan con poner en riesgo su vida. Sixteen-year-old Starr Carter moves between two worlds: the poor neighborhood where she lives and the fancy suburban prep school she attends. The uneasy balance between these worlds is shattered when Starr witnesses the fatal shooting of her childhood best friend Khalil at the hands of a police officer. Khalil was unarmed. Soon afterward his death is a national headline. Some are calling him a thug maybe even a drug dealer and a gangbanger. Protesters are taking to the streets in Khalils name. Some cops and the local drug lord try to intimidate Starr and her family. What everyone wants to know is: what really went down that night? And the only person alive who can answer that is Starr. But what Starr doesor does notsay could upend her community. It could also endanger her life.
