This week's teaser is taken from The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas. Enjoy.

I can't change where I come from or what I've been through, so why should I be ashamed of what makes me, me?

If you read my review, you will find out why I was hesitant to give Angie Thomas' The Hate U Give a chance. Even though I was reluctant to read it, it was a, for lack of a better word, fascinating read.
