After her dad abruptly abandons her family and her mum moves them a million miles from their Chicago home, Noor Khan is forced to start the final term of her senior year at a new school, away from everything and everyone she knows and loves. Reeling from being deserted and uprooted, Noor is certain the key to survival is to keep her head down and make it to graduation. But things aren’t so simple. At school, Noor discovers hundreds of books have been labeled ‘obscene’ or ‘pornographic’ and are being removed from the library in accordance with a new school board policy. Even worse, virtually all the banned books are by queer and BIPOC authors. Noor can’t sit back and do nothing, because that goes against everything she believes in, but challenging the status quo just might put a target on her back. Can she effect change by speaking up?
This book won’t burn
