THE MOST IMPORTANT NOVEL YOU’LL LISTEN TO THIS YEAR

‘Harrowing and heartening in equal measure, this book is a breathtaking tale of racial fissures, fury and friendship’ David Lammy, MP and author of Tribes

‘A powerful story about friendship, race, love, forgiveness, and justice – and the stunning ways they intersect…Empathetic, riveting, and authentic’ Laura Dave, bestselling author of The Last Thing He Told Me

‘Provides a starting point for conversations which are crucial, at times uncomfortable, but long overdue’ Ruth Hogan, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Keeper of Lost Things

Not every story is black and white.

Riley and Jen have been best friends since they were children, and they thought their bond was unbreakable. It never mattered to them that Riley is black and Jen is white. And then Jen's husband, a Philadelphia police officer, is involved in the shooting of an unarmed black teenager and everything changes in an instant.

This one act could destroy more than just Riley and Jen's friendship. As their community takes sides, so must Jen and Riley, and for the first time in their lives the lifelong friends find themselves on opposing sides.

But can anyone win a fight like this?

We Are Not Like Them is about friendship and love. It's about prejudice and betrayal. It's about standing up for what you believe in, no matter the cost.

Excellent book about modern issues of race.

Loved it. This book gets to the very issue of cop brutality and needles dying of young black kid's and the struggle of white people to understand white privilege.

Ending too abrupt

I liked the story and the issues raised but the end dropped off too quickly. It was like someone bringing you to a precipice and then jumping off. I wished there would have been more dialogue between Jenny and Riley once they started talking.

Beyond Amazing.... Gripping .... Real Life....

Absolutely reflective of hate which while depressing never out weighs God''s love for us...

Well told with different voices

This was an interesting topic. I enjoyed hearing the multiple perspectives. Having different narrators helped keep the voices easy to follow. I liked the back and forth adding depth to the issues. I also felt connected to both protagonists and their story. Great book to discuss in a book club.
