maggiecarr 's review for:
The Librarian of Burned Books
by Brianna Labuskes
3:20am and I just finished this book. Coffee shall help me look alive in a few hours during my shift at work ...
Things I knew nothing about before reading this historical-fiction book...
-What The Armed Services Editions (ASEs) compact books shipped to military as moral boosters during WW2 were
-Who The Council On Books In Wartime and their role in fighting in for books, against censorship, and the losses and victories within the movement
-How Governor Taft and Councilor Hitler and the degree in which censorship played in their rises to power
Packed full of mic-drop quotes, I'll be buying my own copy to mark up and denote very soon. Heck I'll likely make some into shirts out of some as censorship seems to continue.
Once I got my jaw off the ground from the shock of yet more I didn't know from history, I was engrossed in this book. Told from three perspectives in different places and times in history yet seamlessly woven together at the end it's what makes a wonderful time-slip. I'd be lying if I didn't own up to having a favorite in Vivian/Viv (New York 1944).
