On the Come Up: Angie Thomas (English Edition) Kindle版
Major motion picture now filming! From Paramount Players and Temple Hill Entertainment, and starring Sanaa Lathan (in her directorial debut), Jamila C. Gray, Method Man, Mike Epps and Da’Vine Joy Randolph.
No. 1 New York Times bestseller
Waterstones Children's Book Prize-winning author
The highly anticipated second novel from one of the literary voices of a generation.
Sixteen-year-old Bri wants to be one of the greatest rappers of all time. As the daughter of an underground hip hop legend who died right before he hit big, Bri’s got massive shoes to fill. But when her first song goes viral for all the wrong reasons, Bri finds herself at the centre of controversy and portrayed by the media as more menace than MC. And with an eviction notice staring her family down, Bri no longer just wants 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.
Plus, don't miss Concrete Rose, Angie Thomas's powerful prequel to her phenomenal bestseller, The Hate U Give!
PRAISE FOR ON THE COME UP
“Pure magic.” The Observer
“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
“A complicated, imperfect heroine who lives and breathes her truth on every page.” Entertainment Weekly
“An immensely endearing main character. It’s likely to assure Thomas’s continued and well-deserved dominance on the best-seller lists.” Vox
“Utterly compelling from first to last.” USA Today
“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 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)
“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 bestseller lists.” Vox

レビュー
“The phrase “voice of a generation” is surely one of the most overused in popular culture. Angie Thomas, however, is one of the rare authors for whom it rings true… Her second, On the Come Up, proves that success was no fluke.” ― i newspaper
“Thomas, a former rapper herself, packs so much into these 448 pages, but they fly along with the agility of one of Bri’s freestyles.” ― The Times, Children’s Book of the Week
“When THUG came out, Thomas was branded “the voice of a generation”; On the Come Up proves that those accolades were not premature. Clever, thoughtful and thoroughly addictive, it deserves to be one of the biggest hits of the year.” ― i newspaper
“Best for: Making you laugh, cry and cheer out loud. . . an acute dissection of the way black girls are objectified and stereotyped by today’s society.” ― i newspaper

家族や仲間たちとの愛情、友情がとても心に残る、読後感が爽快な作品。
英語はスラングが多いので多少分かりにくいところがありますが、The Hate U Give同様、Brianaの一人称、現在形で物語が展開していき、チャプターごとに大きくストーリーが展開していくので、読みやすく、没入しやすいです。

I highly recommend it for young adults/new adults and lovers of Coming of Age stories, even if the movie doesn't appeal to you. I was so impressed with the book, I looked up the trailer for the movie adaptation and EVERYTHING in the trailer is wrong except the character names. I was surprised and disappointed. So, even if you have to get it from the library, I suggest giving it a chance.
A começar pela protagonista, Brianna. Vi várias pessoas falando que ela não é fácil, e ainda bem! Não é para ser fácil mesmo! As pessoas mais complexas e interessantes não são! Bri não nasceu para ser simples, e eu a amo por isso! Sua personalidade é tão bem definida, aliás, que logo no primeiro capítulo ela já faz muito sentido e já conquista! Em vários livros, sinto que o autor precisa de um tempo para se acostumar com a voz do protagonista antes de pegar o jeito, mas Angie Thomas domina completamente a de Bri! Ela é de longe uma das personagens mais reais que já encontrei! Seu jeito estourado foi magnífico, e eu fiquei ainda mais revoltada que ela em muitas cenas. Melhor ainda, só seu talento nato para rimas, que fica claro até quando ela não está tentando escrever uma música.
Nossa, meu amor por este livro é tanto que nem dá para explicar! Todos os personagens secundários são maravilhosos! Jay, Trey, Malik, Sonny, Pooh e todos, sério! Até aqueles que eu queria era odiar! E todas as ramificações da história são mega válidas! A relação da Bri com a mãe é maravilhosa, não por ser sempre boa e fácil — nunca é, — mas por toda sua complexidade. Angie Thomas a explorou de verdade, sem medo, do começo ao fim do livro. Aliás, tudo é tão bem trabalhado, que nem parece que é um livro só! É uma história tão completa!
E, ao mesmo tempo, não é. O final ficou em aberto o suficiente para eu torcer loucamente por uma continuação! Ainda assim, a história termina e não deixa coisa para resolver depois. Sou eu que queria ver no que vai dar essa carreira de rapper da Bri, admito!
Até os romances do livro são bons, cara! Mas o rap é espetacular! Dá para ver que a Angie sabe o que está fazendo! Vou precisar que alguém grave as músicas, por favor. Agora. Na hora das batalhas de rap, ainda coloquei a batida para tocar e eu ler no ritmo certo. Recomendo!
Outra coisa maravilhosa aqui são todas críticas e questionamentos que aparecem, seja por cena ou por comentário da Bri na narração. Desde racismo, passando por abandono, tráfico de drogas e família, até para machismo no rap e definir quem você é sem viver às sombras dos outros. Tem tanta coisa incrível nesse livro, que eu nunca conseguiria falar de todas!
O melhor que eu posso dizer é: leia este livro! Não sei como a tradução ficou, para ser bem honesta, porque não consigo imaginá-lo sem a linguagem exata de Bri, mas a história ainda é válida sozinha. Se você pode ler em inglês, é melhor, mas ainda acho que o mundo inteiro precisa conhecer essa rainha maravilhosa que é a Bri! Que livro marcante!
I fell in love with ANGIE THOMAS’S Writing when I picked her debut novel, THE HATE U GIVE which I read last year, twice. I been excited about ON THE COME UP from the moment that she announced it on twitter. How could I not? Considering how much her debut novel affected me. When I started reading ON THE COME UP I was instantly hooked, to both the story and the characters. I had feeling that it would be a story that I would fall in love with. I did. I even recommended to a few of my friends as well. ON THE COME UP was different on THE HATE U GIVE and in the good way. I loved how Bri kept on fighting, despite what others said about her, to her. Not once did she give up on her dreams, and to me that’s dedication, courage. You cannot help but love Bri, and I know that she is type of person that I would love to be friends with. I don’t rap and only listen to rap music sometimes, and I thought that Bri’s rap that she came up with was catchy, and I actually found myself singing along with it few times, while I was reading the book. I hated how others started treating her afterwards, I understand that they thought the message that she was sending to others, but that gives them no right to assume what that song was about. I don’t know how she did it, how she handled it for as long as she did. If it was me in that situation, I wouldn’t be able to. That was one of the things that I loved about Bri, and how she kept going after her dream, no matter what was said about her song.
What I loved the most about this book was how realistic it was. Poverty. Addiction. Gang is something that actually happens, and I am sure that it is what a lot of people can relate to. Bri, she dealt with so much in this book. Besides Bri, her mother was my second favorite character in ON THE COME UP but then how could she not be? She’s recovering addict and just by reading this story, I saw how much she changed, and how hard she worked to provide for her family. She even gave up her education. I felt proud for her, and at same time I felt sorry, how hard she had work to provide for her family, and yet sometimes that wasn’t enough. I knew that Bri and her mom had their moments, especially when it comes to Bri;s rap, but I feel that was because she was afraid that she might lose her, the way that she lost her husband. She was trying to protect her. Despite their arguments, I knew that in the end they would be there for each other. Like Bri’s mother was when she found out what the guards at the school done to her, how they treated her. I knew that they would deny it, but I knew what they did was wrong, and that they shouldn’t been allowed back in school afterwards. I smiled, I cried, I got angry and I got scared while I read ON THE COME UP . It was as if I was feeling the emotions that characters were feeling in the story. It was…spectacular.
Just like THE HATE U GIVE , ON THE COME UP will be a book that you will be thinking about long after turning the last page, the story that you will be talking with your friends about. I did. I thought about the story, and the impact that this book had on me, days after I finished it. I fell in love. I am already eager to see what ANGIE THOMAS will come up with next. Highly recommended. A must read.
