This is the highly anticipated second novel by Angie Thomas, the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling, award-winning The Hate U Give. 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.

Starr si muove tra due mondi: abita in un quartiere di colore dove imperversano le gang ma frequenta una scuola prestigiosa, soprattutto per volere della madre, determinata a costruire un futuro migliore per i suoi figli. Vive quasi una doppia vita, a metà tra gli amici di infanzia e i nuovi compagni. Questo fragile equilibrio va in frantumi quando Starr assiste all'uccisione di Khalil, il suo migliore amico, per mano della polizia. Ed era disarmato. Il caso conquista le prime pagine dei giornali. C'è chi pensa che Khalil fosse un poco di buono, perfino uno spacciatore, il membro di una gang e che, in fin dei conti, se lo sia meritato. Quando appare chiaro che la polizia non ha alcun interesse a chiarire l'episodio, la protesta scende in strada e il quartiere di Starr si trasforma in teatro di guerriglia. C'è una cosa che tutti vogliono sapere: cos'è successo davvero quella notte? Ma l'unica che possa dare una risposta è Starr. Quello che dirà - o non dirà - può distruggere la sua comunità. Può mettere in pericolo la sua stessa vita. Un romanzo importante. Una voce straordinariamente autentica. Un travolgente caso editoriale.
