Product Description

On The Come Up by Angie Thomas :-

On the Come Up, published in 2019, is the second novel by acclaimed young adult author Angie Thomas. It takes place in the same neighborhood as Thomas’s first novel, The Hate U Give(2017), but aside from occasional references to the murder and riots in Garden Heights, On the Come Up features a new cast of characters.

The book received numerous awards, including the American Library Association’s Top Ten Books for Young Adults, and it was nominated for the Carnegie Medal for Young Adult Fiction.

Like in The Hate U Give and its prequel, Concrete Rose(2021), Thomas explores themes of racism, identity, and activism, but with the added component of the music industry as the backdrop of this modern tale.
