Absolutely loved this! If you’re on the side of “banned books” keep people oppressed, then this book is certainly for you.
Lula Dean is the leader of the committee who removes “bad” books like Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret and Diary of Anne Frank from the school and public libraries in Troy, Georgia. When she provides a Little Free Library of books she encourages people to read instead, things go awry & the go awry quickly. I found myself cheering for the townsfolk as they took down the long-standing beliefs the town held on to. The characters felt alive on the page.
