Description
‘Clever and astute … a cracking read’ The Belfast Telegraph
‘One by one, residents read the books and find their lives changed in unexpected ways’ Hello Magazine
* * *
From the author of The Change, comes a novel about book banning and those brave enough to stand up against this censorship.
IT’S TIME TO RISE UP
In Troy, Georgia, local woman Lula Dean has campaigned to cleanse the town’s reading habits. All the ‘disgusting’, ‘pornographic’ and downright ‘un-American’ books have been removed from public spaces. Now, the townspeople are only allowed to read ‘appropriate’ books from Lula’s personal lending library.
But a small group refuse to be told what they can and cannot read and, unbeknownst to Lula, her personal collection is slowly restocked with banned books: literary classics, gay romances, Black history, spell books, and more.
One by one, each person who borrows the books from Lula’s library find their lives changed in unexpected ways. And as they begin to reveal their new selves, it’s clear that a showdown is fast approaching – one that will change the town of Troy forever …
* * *

‘A story that’s as furious as it is tender’ EMILY HENRY on The Change
‘A roar of rage … I loved it’ MARIAN KEYES
‘I couldn’t put it down’ ERIN KELLY
