3 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
In Ruby Winters' world, colour opens some doors and slams others shut. Her opulent Johannesburg neighbourhood is a far cry from the streets of Soweto where anger and hatred simmer under the surface. Ruby can?t resist the blue-eyed Afrikaans boy who brings her the exciting rush of first love, but whose presence brings hushed whispers and disapproving glances. She might not see race, colour or creed ? but it seems everybody else does . . . This dazzling novel will entrance teenage and adult readers alike.

Went through all the different emotions with Ruby; both at home and at school. Despite all the challenges she went through she somehow always found a way to get through these. I liked her relationship with Julian Mambasa and for a moment there I thought something might develop between them. The saddest part for me though was when her family had to leave but her mother decided to stay back home to help those she thought needed her more.

While The Hate U Give made me angry, this book almost made me cry (which means a lot). Linzi Glass shows us the lifes of those who risk their lives and those of their beloved ones to do what's right. To fight and stand up for others. It shows us another side of the suffering people and their small-mindedness causes.

Ruby Red shows us the past, The Hate U Give the present. How far did we come?

DeeKay1 I really enjoyed reading this book, heartbreaking I must say, Ruby goes through some of the worst stuff both at home and at school, but I love how she always seems to overcome these challenges. The saddest part for me was when Annebel broke the news that she won't be running away with Ruby and her dad, but that she had to stay for those who needed her more 😰. 5y
