Many thanks to netgalley, the author snd Harper Collins for approving my request to read this book.
I absolutely loved this story, it was funny as well as being very emotive in places, it made me laugh and cry. Wonderfully written this story had everything I love in a book, I loved every last page!
I'll most definitely be recommending to others.

A very pleasing book about the power of books and stories, and the importance of knowledge of community.

This was a really entertaining mischievous read.
Lula Dean started a campaign in her southern town to ban any controversial books from her town and school libraries. She sets up her own mini library of books which she deems appropriate. Unknown to her, her choices are switched and the books begin to have an impact on the readers changing the city and its inhabitants.
They challenge people’s beliefs and perspectives and give them new role models to follow.
This book challenges racism, antisemitism and the rise of the alt-right movement but done in a gentle way which makes you think while smiling!
An entertaining read.
