Lula Dean's Little Library of Banned Books by Kirsten Miller
After Lula Dean has succeeded in removing all the books she has deemed inappropriate from all the school libraries and the public library in Troy, Georgia, she creates a little library in her front lawn, featuring the books she feels people should be reading. However, someone secretly removes the actual books and takes the book jackets from Lula's recommendations and puts them on books that have been banned. The novel tells the stories of the townspeople who read these books and the effects reading the books have on their lives. One also wonders what will happen when Lula finds out about the switch. A humorous, satirical read. Readalikes include The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires, The Revenge of the Radioactive Lady, and Miss Dreamsville and the Collier County Women's Literary Society.
