The Book Censor's Library by Bothayna Al-Essa
4.0
dark sad fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: N/A
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This book hit with a punch. Oof. The tension was visceral and it sped to its dark conclusion. I felt like this was another take on Fahrenheit 451. Not a reimagining, it’s a different story completely but I think it was trying to say some of the same things about books and imagination, thought police and control.
