Angie Thomas, the author of The Hate U Give, presents a moving story of the pursuit of dreams in this bestselling novel. As the daughter of a late underground rap legend, sixteen-year-old Bri wants to become a hip-hop star of her own—not for the fame, but to lift her family out of poverty. Brilliantly interspersed with Bri’s rap lyrics, On the Come Up will hook your high school students with its diverse, complex characters and timely themes of inequality, prejudice, personal growth, and perseverance.
