In this episode of the Rogue Librarians we discuss The Perks of Being a Wallflower, by Stephen Chbosky, along with special guest Simon. We delve into why the book has remained one of the most banned and challenged books on the ALA lists.
We added a new segment where we give a little recent info on the state of book banning. We discussed the article. “Not even Little Free Libraries are safe from book bans. ‹ Literary Hub (lithub.com)”
We also referenced the LitReactor column, “Yes I Read The 111 Page Moms For Liberty Book Ban Document,” by Peter Derk.
