My misguided assumptions could have been avoided by having read the flap — whoops. I loved Clara's fortitude, bravery and willingness to fight back against her school's new absurd and draconian policies. The characters felt honest and genuine. On the other hand, the resolution felt a bit too sudden, all wrapped up neat and tidy in the blink of an eye. Weirdly, the event that the reader was expecting to serve as the book's climax happened offscreen. A good book and a valuable and inspiring message, though. Recommended. (  ) ryner | Oct 8, 2022 | While navigating school politics, questioning everything about her assumptions about people and her own beliefs & motivations, Clara's senior year turns into something BIG and something she'd never thought it would be. The book also serves as a love letter to literature full of shout out to books, meaningful quotes, and stories about the way stories touch her and her classmates lives. ( ) ewyatt | Sep 11, 2022 |  ) Dairyqueen84 | Mar 15, 2022 | this was sweet (perhaps a bit too sweet in retrospect, but i did enjoy it) and good, but not great. a lot of the dialogue didn't feel realistic, but i still liked this quite a bit.

HTML: In this hilarious and thought-provoking contemporary teen standalone that's perfect for fans of Moxie, a bookworm finds a way to fight back when her school bans dozens of classic and meaningful books. Clara Evans is horrified when she discovers her principal's "prohibited media" hit list. The iconic books on the list have been pulled from the library and aren't allowed anywhere on the school's premises. Students caught with the contraband will be sternly punished. Many of these stories have changed Clara's life, so she's not going to sit back and watch while her draconian principal abuses his power. She's going to strike back. So Clara starts an underground library in her locker, doing a shady trade in titles like Speak and The Chocolate War. But when one of the books she loves most is connected to a tragedy she never saw coming, Clara's forced to face her role in it. Will she be able to make peace with her conflicting feelings, or is fighting for this noble cause too tough for her to bear? "Suggested Reading is a beautiful reminder that there is nothing simple about loving a book." ??David Arnold, New York Times bestselling author of Mosquitoland Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
