A senior-year essay leads into a fight over access to books

Ada’s final semester brings several demands at once: a classmate depends on her to complete his homework, her cousin moves into the family home, and her parents have already chosen a path for her after graduation. Her senior essay gives these pressures a point of focus when the biography she needs is removed from the library during a sweeping book ban. With her best friend’s help, Ada turns to a library-run banned book club to find a way forward. The premise connects school, family expectations, and questions of who gets to decide what belongs on library shelves.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in high school stories about friendship and family pressures.
  • Readers interested in fiction about book bans, libraries, and access to books.
  • Readers who enjoy stories centered on school assignments and uncertainty about life after graduation.

Book overview

Ada Holloway just needs to survive her final semester as a high school senior, but nothing's going her way.

 

Star quarterback Beckett Forsythe relies on Ada to do his homework for him, her rebellious cousin Molly has no where else to go but the Holloway's house, and to top it all off, Ada doesn't really know what she wants to do with her life-even though her parents already decided for her.

 

The one thing she does know is the topic for her senior essay: the life of Freeport's founder, Everett J. Washington. But the Mayor of Freeport has pulled Washington's biography from library shelves among a massive book ban. Ada needs that book, she needs to write her essay, and her best friend David has a perfect idea: a banned book club run by the public library. What could go wrong?
