#1 New York Times bestseller · Seven starred reviews · Boston Globe-Horn Book Award Honor Book
Sixteen-year-old Bri wants to be one of the greatest rappers of all time. Or at least win her first battle. As the daughter of an underground hip hop legend who died right before he hit big, Bri’s got massive shoes to fill. But it’s hard to get your come up when you’re labeled a hoodlum at school, and your fridge at home is empty after your mom loses her job. So Bri pours her anger and frustration into her first song, which goes viral . . . for all the wrong reasons.
Bri soon finds herself at the center of a controversy, portrayed by the media as more menace than MC. But with an eviction notice staring her family down, Bri doesn’t just want to make it—she has to. Even if it means becoming the very thing the public has made her out to be.
Insightful, unflinching, and full of heart, On the Come Up is an ode to hip hop from one of the most influential literary voices of a generation. It is the story of fighting for your dreams, even as the odds are stacked against you; and about how, especially for young black people, freedom of speech isn’t always free.
“For all the struggle in this book, Thomas rarely misses a step as a writer. Thomas continues to hold up that mirror with grace and confidence. We are lucky to have her, and lucky to know a girl like Bri.”—The New York Times Book Review
Plus don't miss Concrete Rose, Angie Thomas's powerful prequel to her phenomenal bestseller, The Hate U Give!

Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express

Rubi Onisor a dat nota:

Această carte urmărește povestea Briannei Jackson. E din același cartier în care a fost scris THUG și îi urmăm povestea, la persoana întâi, din punctul ei de vedere. În această carte, Bri vrea să fie rapper la fel ca tatăl ei și poate să facă bătălii rap, să încarce o melodie și a devenit super faimoasă în orașul ei. Această carte a fost grozavă. Nu era la fel de întunecată ca cealaltă carte a lui Angie, dar totuși era bună. Mi-a plăcut mai mult acesta pentru că m-am distrat mai mult să îl citesc pe acesta decât pe celălalt. THUG este o carte foarte serioasă și pentru o cauză evidentă. Cu toate acestea, acesta nu este la fel de dur. Nu mă înțelege greșit. În această carte continuăm hărțuirea și maltratarea de la personalitățile de securitate la oameni de culoare. Bri este din partea ghetou a orașului și familia ei este săracă și o vedem cum se luptă prin asta și cred că Angie a făcut o treabă incredibilă în a ne ajuta prin ceea ce trece o familie în acele situații. Mama lui Bri era dependentă de droguri, tatăl ei a fost ucis când ea era mai mică de niște membri ai bandei, mătușa ei face parte dintr-o bandă. Aici, vedem totul și sunt atât de bucuroasă că Angie a scris această carte așa cum a făcut-o. Această carte nu este doar despre luptele care trăiesc în „capotă”, ci este și despre sprijinul prietenilor și familiei. Este, de asemenea, să crești, să înveți din greșelile cuiva, să-i sprijini pe cei care suferă și să înveți să fie umili. Sunt probleme cu rasa, cu drogurile, cu membrii bandelor, cu violența autorității și abuzul de putere, dar există și lupte în familie.

Recenzii

★ “This follow-up to Thomas’ landmark The Hate U Give, set in the same fictional city after the events of that book, demonstrates again Thomas’ gift for crackling dialogue, complex characterization, and impactful emotion. Readers already lining up for this title won’t be disappointed.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books (starred review)
★ “While acknowledging that society is quick to slap labels onto black teens, the author allows her heroine to stumble and fall before finding her footing and her voice. Thomas once again fearlessly speaks truth to power; a compelling coming-of-age story for all teens.” — School Library Journal (starred review)
★ “On the Come Up truly shines in its exploration of Bri’s resilience, determination, and pursuit of her dreams. In this splendid novel, showing many facets of the black identity and the black experience, Thomas gives readers another dynamic protagonist to root for.” — ALA Booklist (starred review)
★ “This honest and unflinching story of toil, tears, and triumph is a musical love letter that proves literary lightning does indeed strike twice. The rawness of Bri’s narrative demonstrates Thomas’ undeniable storytelling prowess. A joyous experience awaits. Read it. Learn it. Love it.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
★ “With sharp, even piercing, characterization, this indelible and intricate story of a young girl who is brilliant and sometimes reckless, who is deeply loved and rightfully angry at a world that reduces her to less than her big dreams call her to be, provides many pathways for readers.” — Horn Book (starred review)
“For all the struggle in this book, Thomas rarely misses a step as a writer. Thomas continues to hold up that mirror with grace and confidence. We are lucky to have her, and lucky to know a girl like Bri.” — New York Times Book Review
“This book beckons young readers and music lovers alike with an homage to the forefathers of hip-hop that also assures the feminine voice is never dismissed from the cypher.” — Washington Post
“On the Come Up offers a complicated, imperfect heroine who lives and breathes her truth on every page.” — Entertainment Weekly
“On the Come Up is earnest and warm-hearted, a careful examination of social issues that’s built around an immensely endearing main character. It’s likely to assure Thomas’s continued and well-deserved dominance on the best-seller lists.” — Vox
“Bri’s story is utterly compelling from first to last.” — USA Today
