THE MOST IMPORTANT NOVEL YOU'LL READ 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 'A painfully amazing read teaching us that
sometimes, when it comes to race, the real enemy is ignorance' Rhys
Stephenson, actor and TV presenter '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. * * * 'Powerful and timely... explores every aspect of
systemic racism, from micro aggressions to intergenerational
trauma' Guardian 'Timely and important, I read it in one sitting
but am still thinking about it weeks later' Sarah Morgan, Sunday

of the year [...] A brilliant novel from Christine Pride and Jo
Piazza capturing today's complex issues of race and class' HELLO!
