“Riveting, heartbreaking . . . and a powerful reflection on who deserves second chances.”—Renée Watson, Newbery Medal winning author of All the Blues in the Sky
“Eye-opening.”—School Library Journal
Violetta was drunk behind the wheel of the car when a tragic crash claimed her sister’s life. In this near-future world, her punishment will be decided by the victim’s family: Violetta’s own parents. The Chen-Samuelses can decide one of three things: to forgive their daughter and allow her to come home; sentence her to years in prison; or send her to the Trials—where Violetta could earn her family’s forgiveness by participating in a series of tests of will intended to prove that she understands the gravity of her actions. The Trials, meant to rehabilitate and prevent recidivism, are tailored to each offender’s crime. They can be cruel and can go on forever. Violetta is crushed when her older brother, Vince, delivers the news—she will be sent to the Trials. But what Violetta wants more than her freedom is her family’s forgiveness.
The decision weighs heavily on Vince, who feels he’s let his family down and could have somehow prevented the tragedy. Buckling under the weight of expectations, guilt, and loneliness, Vince quietly spirals into addiction as Violetta faces the Trials. Both Vince and Violetta must decide what it means to not only forgive one another, but themselves.
Alternating between Violetta’s and Vince’s perspectives, Forgive Me Not is an intense, insightful exploration of punishment and forgiveness that shines a stark light on the dehumanizing treatment of Black and Brown children in the criminal justice system, making a powerful argument for the abolition of prisons.

★ “Though the justice system in the novel is clearly fiction, the parallels with our current system—especially Baker's depiction of the unequal way justice is applied—are unmistakable. A sharp indictment, Baker makes a powerful and passionate statement about real justice embedded in a well-constructed plot populated by vivid characters.” —Booklist, starred review
“Jennifer Baker crafts a riveting, heartbreaking, and ultimately redemptive tale with nuanced characters that are perfectly flawed and relatable. Forgive Me Not is an astute social commentary on the juvenile justice system and a powerful reflection on who deserves second chances. A groundbreaking debut that will stay with the reader long after the story ends.” —Renée Watson, #1 New York Times bestselling author, The 1619 Project: Born on the Water
“Unflinching and character-driven, Forgive Me Not confronts difficult questions about identity, family, and forgiveness. A potent reminder of the personal and societal harm caused by dehumanizing systems.” —Randy Ribay, National Book Award Finalist, Patron Saints of Nothing
“Brilliant, bold, and deeply moving, Forgive Me Not shines a necessary and dignifying light on the young people trapped in a broken system of justice. This novel radiates with the redemptive power of love and forgiveness.” —Brendan Kiely, co-author of the New York Times bestselling All American Boys and The Other Talk
“Eye-opening… draws parallels to the inequality of the justice system in the United States, particularly its treatment of Black people and people of color … An important addition to teen library collections.” —School Library Journal
“Baker’s writing excels at showing rather than telling through vivid details.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Through resonant alternating perspectives, debut author Baker empathetically examines the harsh treatment of Black youth in the justice system. Affecting depictions of addiction and reform contribute to the novel’s overarching interrogation of blame, guilt, and self-forgiveness.” —Publishers Weekly
