Event Details
The Mira Mesa Library’s Banned Book Club, a book group with a “freedom to read” theme, meets the last Tuesday of each month (no meeting in December), 6:30pm at the library, 8405 New Salem St.
The group focuses on books and authors that have been banned or challenged worldwide over the years, as well as other thought-provoking titles. All are welcome, “regulars” as well as “drop-ins” for a particular title!
This month's selection is The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, by Sherman Alexie. This first-person novel about a Native America teenager, is a witty, semi-autobiographical Young Adult title that will appeal to adults as well as teens. This is on the ALA list of Most Frequently Challenged Books in 2018.
