Books About Book Banning: Historical & Contemporary Reads

As an Amazon Associate and member of other affiliate programs, we may earn a referral fee from qualifying purchases.As readers, we believe that books are powerful resources in growing our knowledge and understanding of the world around us. Perhaps more importantly, they are an invaluable resource for understanding others who grew up in different cultures, regions, religions, or economic backgrounds. Throughout history, various leaders and groups have opposed a well-read population and have spent their time destroying and/or banning books they deem dangerous.
The earliest instance of book banning we could find dates back to 213 BCE in China, when Emperor Qin Shi Huang ordered the burning of philosophical and historical texts. In the US, the first recorded challenged book was Thomas Morton’s critical and satirical text New English Canaan in 1637. While Ulysses by James Joyce is now considered a classic and studied in schools, U.S. postal officials seized and burned copies of the novel in 1922.
We’ll quickly agree that not every book is suitable for every age range, and we’ve certainly considered age appropriateness when choosing books with the kiddos in our lives. But historically, book bans have not been about actually protecting children. They’re about protecting the viewpoints of those in power.

Historical Fiction About Book Banning

Book Summary
Just before 1920, American Sylvia Beach opened an English-language bookstore called Shakespeare and Company on a quiet street in Paris. Soon, that bookstore became a second home to prominent writers like Ernest Hemingway and James Joyce.
When Joyce’s controversial novel, Ulysses, was banned, Beach decided to take a huge risk and publish it under the name of her bookstore in 1922. The book became one of the most infamous and influential books of the century, but that success ultimately threatened the future of Shakespeare and Company.
What to Expect in This Book
This book is based on the true story of the publication and banning of Ulysses and contains many interesting historical details, including comparisons between life in Paris and the US during the 1920s and into the 1930s.
It’s described as a slow-moving but absorbing biographical novel that’s perfect for book lovers who enjoy reading about books. Another important aspect of the book is Sylvia’s loving partnership with French bookseller Adrienne Monnier during a time period when same-sex relationships were far less accepted, even in progressive Paris.

Thoughts on This Book
This book was a 2023 Goodreads Choice Finalist for Best Historical Fiction. It’s both heart-warming and heart-breaking, so be sure to have Kleenex on hand.
In Our Readers’ Words
“I loved this book! I learned so much about history that I did not know before. And I liked hearing about the books Hitler banned that the club read. I also just enjoyed the general reverence for literature and how books could give a glimmer of hope in such a dire situation. So glad I chose this book!”
“I have read a lot of WW2 fiction, but never about the Polish occupation. It was very informative and well written.”

Book Summary
Liesel Meminger is a 9-year-old foster girl living in Nazi Germany in 1939. While trying to avoid all the death around her, she learns to read and begins stealing books. Soon, she’s sharing the books with neighbors and the Jewish man hidden in their basement.
It’s a heartbreaking read like so many others that cover this subject, but The Book Thief also underscores the vast power of books to help you through a terrible time.
Thoughts on This Book
Not only is Liesel reading books to escape her own reality, as she shares them, but she also makes unexpected connections with neighbors. Our readers voted that they believe this book will be considered a classic in the future, with one saying it’s “a heart-wrenching understanding of the effect of war and hate that should never be forgotten.”
The Secrets We Kept
Book Summary
During the Cold War, the CIA devised a plan to smuggle Boris Pasternak’s Doctor Zhivago out of the USSR, as it was banned from publication there. The US thought if they could publish the beloved love story, they could win over the hearts and minds of Soviet Russians.
Two secretaries were pulled from the typing pool with the task of acquiring the novel and getting it out of Russia. While Sally has been a spy before and knows how to charm powerful men, Irina is a novice. Will they be able to free Doctor Zhivago from Russian suppression?
Consider This Before Reading
While this is a fascinating, based-on-a-true-story account of how the CIA devised a plan to get a Russian-language edition of Doctor Zhivago back into the USSR, it also follows the decades-long affair between Pasternak and his mistress and muse, Olga Ivinskaya, who was sent to a labor camp just for associating with him.
If either too much romance is woven into historical fiction or infidelity are a deal-breaker in your reading, skip this one.

Book Summary
In 1940, the Nazis invaded and occupied the Channel Islands, including Jersey. While thousands of islanders evacuated, many also stayed in their homes, including librarian Grace and her best friend, Bea, a postwoman.
By 1943, Grace had become Chief Librarian after her boss was sent to an internment camp in Germany. She is taking a great risk in hiding books banned by the Nazis in order to protect them from destruction. She also strongly believes in the importance of access to books during this terrible period. But when neighbors are offered extra rations for reporting each other, who can she trust?
More About This Book
Each chapter of this novel starts with information on a different banned book, adding an extra layer to this already engaging story. Don’t miss the author’s note that highlights which part of this story closely follows the history of the occupation of Jersey.
Keep in mind that this novel is on the longer side (512 pages) and includes a large cast of characters beyond the alternating perspectives of Grace & Bea.
The Collector of Burned Books
Book Summary
German writers who were exiled for their opinions or heritage fled to France when the Nazi Party started banning books. In Paris, they opened a library and gathered every book on the Nazis’ banned list, and even smuggled incognito versions back into Germany.
Corinne has been visiting the library for the past six years, but once the German forces occupy Paris, she not only loses access to the library; she loses the secrets she’s hidden there along the way. They aren’t just personal secrets. The Allies will need her notes to help liberate her home.
Christian is a German professor who has done his best to shield his family and his books from the Nazi ideals. But he’s forced into a uniform he despises when Goebbels sends him to handle the “relocation” of France’s libraries.
What to Expect in This Book
Corinne has a strong Catholic faith that she leans on when encountering trying situations. The story focuses on the themes of censorship, resilience, and the power of words, but it also features a romance.
The Sisters of Book Row
Book Summary
In 1915, Book Row in Manhattan contained 40 different bookshops along Fourth Avenue. In addition to being a mecca for book lovers, the area was targeted by a vicious censor named Anthony Comstock.
The Applebaum sisters run the Arcadia Rare Bookshop, and it’s the only home they’ve ever known. But the Comstock Laws threaten not only to close their store, but also to jail them for owning “obscene, lewd, or lascivious” publications. Instead of complying out of fear, the trio of sisters vows to stop Comstock and his irrational demands.
What to Expect in This Read
Reviewers note loving the historical information included about the Comstock Act and the real Book Row in Manhattan. Many also mention that this is a slower-paced read, but that as long as you enjoy character-based books, you’ll enjoy it.
The book’s plot involves real historical figures and movements, such as the notorious moral censor Anthony Comstock and activists connected to Margaret Sanger, who fought against censorship and for women’s health rights. While the bookstore is based on a real store, the sisters are fictional. Be sure to read the author’s note for more details on the story behind the book.
Classics About Book Banning
The Handmaid’s Tale
Book Summary
This dystopian fiction, set in the near future, tells of everyday life in what was formerly the United States, but is now called the Republic of Gilead. Concerned about declining birth rates, the monotheocratic government decides to revert to the repressive ways of the original Puritans. The regime takes the Book of Genesis very literally, with severe consequences for women.
The story is told through the eyes of Offred, who is deemed a Handmaid under the new social order.
The Handmaid’s Tale was published in 1985, and in 2019, it finally received a long-awaited sequel titled The Testaments. This book picks up the story fifteen years after the timeline in the first book, and in it, the author aims to answer all the questions readers had been asking for decades.
About the Adaptation
The Hulu adaptation of The Handmaid’s Tale premiered in 2017 and ran for six seasons (with 66 episodes in total).
The first seasons of the series track Margaret Atwood’s original 1985 novel quite closely, and then the series moves beyond the book into new storylines (later weaving in some of the elements and tone of The Testaments).
Popular with critics and audiences alike, the series won 15 Primetime Emmys, including eight for its first season, and two Golden Globes.
Book Summary
Set in a bleak, dystopian future, this novel transports us to an unspecified city near the middle of the US after two atomic wars. Guy Montag is a fireman, but rather than putting out fires, his job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities – books, as well as the houses in which they are hidden.
His life is the same day in and day out. He causes destruction and ruin in the name of censorship without ever questioning his actions. All the while, his wife spends her time staring at the television (which has become, for many, a replacement for friends and family).
Everything begins to change when Guy meets his seventeen-year-old neighbor, Clarisse, who loves nature, despises TV, and introduces him to the ideas of individualism and critical thought. She also causes him to question, for the first time, whether he is happy – and what happiness even means.
In Our Readers’ Words…
Our readers selected Fahrenheit 451 as one of their favorite classic books and left these comments about it when voting.
How can any self-pronounced lover of books not be in shock reading about a world of total censorship? Such a thought-provoking book to reread among all the talk of book banning today. Kris I.
It’s always a good time to read Fahrenheit 451. The events, attitudes and circumstances are still here, 70 years later. The politics, social ideology, attitudes and focal points really haven’t shifted as much as we think they have. -Irene I.
It is simply the story of how very important it is for everyone to have shared knowledge and be always willing to educate themselves to make a successful society. -Lori D.
The Iron Heel
Book Summary
Avis Cunningham has never had reason to question the world that raised her. The daughter of a respected physicist, she lives comfortably in Berkeley, where the men who run the mills and the railroads are dinner guests rather than adversaries. Then her father brings home Ernest Everhard, a self-taught socialist writer who dismantles the assumptions of everyone at the table. When Avis sets out to prove him wrong about conditions inside the factories, what she finds sends her in search of the men who profit from them.
As Ernest’s warnings come true, the great trusts consolidate into an Oligarchy its enemies call the Iron Heel, holding power through hired militias, a bought press, and courts that no longer pretend at fairness.
Avis marries into the resistance and watches the movement she believed in driven into cellars and false identities. Told through a manuscript she writes in hiding, her account traces what it costs to see a society clearly while it still insists nothing is wrong.
Historical Context for This Book
Until researching novels for this list, we had never come across this classic political dystopian novel from the author best known for The Call of the Wild. London wrote this novel in 1906–07, during the Progressive Era’s fight with the trusts and a year after the founding of the Industrial Workers of the World labor union.
Be aware that the political speeches in the book are lengthy, despite the book being on the shorter side overall. London’s racial language reflects his era, and is hard to read in spots.
George Orwell wrote a review of The Iron Heel in 1940, and readers often note the echoes of it in his own dystopian classic, 1984.

You’ll laugh and cheer as she assembles a group of students who rally together to keep their access to books and make a positive difference in their school.
In Our Readers’ Words
Our readers selected Ban This Book as one of their favorite books about books. Here’s what three of them had to say about it:
“Love this book!! Even though it’s geared toward young readers, it’s appropriate for all. So many good messages and quotes.”
“As a former community college librarian who also had to run the gauntlet of people wanting to ban books in our library, I enjoyed the story and thought the students came up with a great way to show how wrong it is to let one person’s opinion override the rights of others.”
“This may be a children’s book, but the concept is NOT childish! I really enjoyed the main character and how she stood up against banning books!”
Another Middle Grade Option
Property of the Rebel Librarian is another highly-rated middle grade read about book banning. In this novel, twelve-year-old June is horrified when her parents take strict parenting to a new level over the library book they deem inappropriate. Before she knows it, the librarian is suspended, the library is gutted, and an author appearance is canceled.
Our Missing Hearts
Book Summary
This novel imagines a United States where a nationalistic law called PACT, Preserving American Culture and Traditions Act, rules the land. While it was sold as a way to preserve American values after an economic collapse, it’s being used as an excuse for violence and discrimination against minorities.
The book is largely told from the perspective of Bird, a twelve-year-old boy, who lives with his father after his Chinese-American mother left when he was nine. They live in a small dorm room at the college where his father was a professor and is now a librarian. However, the library is missing many books that have been banned under PACT, including basic history and cultural works.
When Bird receives a letter from his mother, he sets out to find her and discovers an America he didn’t want to see. Along the way, you’ll see chapters from her perspective and explore how art can help heal.

Book Summary
Beverly is on the local school board, and her archrival, Lula, has turned into a local celebrity as she’s been on a mission to rid the public libraries of all inappropriate books—none of which she’s actually read.
To counteract the “pornographic” books housed in the local library, Lula starts a little library in her front yard, full of “worthy literature”.
At night, Beverly’s adult daughter, Lindsay, sneaks over to Lula’s little library and replaces the books, but swaps the dust covers. Suddenly, Our Confederate Heroes actually contains Beloved, and The Southern Belle’s Guide to Etiquette turns into The Girl’s Guide to the Revolution.
As Beverly and Lula’s rivalry intensifies when they run against each other to replace the mayor, the townspeople who have been changed by borrowing the books from Lula’s library begin to reveal themselves. Everyone from the postman to the prom queen has something to say, eventually forcing Lindsay to confess.
Our Thoughts on This Book
This work of satire digs into what so many communities across the US have faced when people blindly fight for books to be removed from libraries without even reading them. While it addresses serious issues like racism, misogyny, antisemitism, and the frightening rise of neo-Nazism, the humor incorporated prevents it from being too heavy. One reviewer called it “a love letter to the power of banned books.”
Suggested Reading

Book Summary
Maggie is in her late 20s and still floundering, trying to figure out what she should do with her life. Her best friend seems to have it all, including a husband, a bookstore, and soon, a new baby. Maggie comes to Bell River to take over the bookshop during Rochelle’s maternity leave. Though Maggie is not a reader, Rochelle is sure she can handle it.
However, Cobblestone Books has a co-owner who is less convinced of Maggie’s competence. The bookstore is connected to literary legend Edward Bell, and the co-owner insists that everything in the store remains authentic to Edward’s time. Only classics are sold, and the townspeople must leave town to buy contemporary books. But Maggie is NOT a rule-follower. Her good heart always leads the way, leading to all kinds of secret ideas to help improve profits at the store. Along the way, she finds some surprising allies.
Thoughts on This Book
If you enjoy charming contemporary fiction with a smaller side of romance, this is a great choice. It’s fun to have a main character who begins the book as someone who doesn’t read for pleasure at all but has a chance to discover the joy of books.
Some readers take issue with the fact that Maggie is not always truthful, so if you need your main characters to always make the right decisions, this might not be the book for you.
This Book Won’t Burn
Book Summary
Noor should be having the time of her life at the end of her senior year. Instead, her dad just left the family without warning, leaving her mom to move them from Chicago to a rural town that feels a million miles from her home and friends.
She only has one quarter of high school left, so she is determined to keep her head down at her new school. But Noor can’t stay silent when she learns that hundreds of books have been labeled “obscene” or “pornographic” and are being removed from the library in accordance with a new school board policy. Worse, they’ve specifically targeted books by authors who are not white and straight.
Consider This Before Reading
According to reviewers, this one does read solidly like a YA novel, told from a YA perspective. It’s still enjoyed by plenty of adult readers and worthy of being on the list, but if you don’t tend to enjoy books that read younger, we’d recommend picking another title from this list.
Magical Realism & Fantasy About Book Bans
The Book Witch
Book Summary
Rainy March is a third-generation book witch. Not only does she have the power to jump into and out of novels with the help of her magical umbrella, but she is also sworn to defend works of fiction from all foes – both real and imaginary.
Like all book witches, Rainy is expected to comply with a strict set of rules: don’t eat, drink, or sleep inside a fictional world lest you become part of the story; real people must stay in the real world, and fictional characters must stay in their fictional worlds; and never fall in love with a fictional character.
That final rule is why Rainy has been forbidden from seeing the Duke of Chicago, the handsome fictional detective in her favorite mystery series. If she were ever caught with him, she’d be forced to give up her magical gifts. But when her grandfather disappears and a priceless book is stolen, she knows that the Duke is the only person who can help her solve the case.
Together, they’ll adventure through the fictional worlds of classics like Alice in Wonderland and The Great Gatsby.
Book Banning Connection

Memoir & Non-Fiction About Book Banning
The Genius of Judy: How Judy Blume Rewrote Childhood for All of Us
Book Girls’ Readers Rate This Book
89% Would Recommend to a Friend
Book Summary
If Judy Blume is one of the authors who first sparked your love of reading, then you’ll want to pick up this biography, which provides an intimate portrait of her life, her work, and her cultural impact.
It begins in the 1960s, when Judy, a mother of two living in suburban New Jersey, was searching for more purpose in her life. She began writing books that starred regular children with genuine thoughts and problems. But more than that, she used her deceptively simple tales to provide an honest exploration of the growing women’s rights movement and address issues like career opportunities, bodily autonomy, and even sexual pleasure.
Blume’s bravery provoked backlash, making her the country’s most-banned author in the mid-1980s. Thankfully, her works withstood those culture wars, and she remains a beloved author among readers of all ages. Now, this biography tells the story of how she went from housewife to a groundbreaking icon.
What to Expect in This Book
This non-fiction book goes beyond Judy Blume’s life to examine the broader industry, and while most find it both compelling and educational, some readers feel it borders on a textbook at times.

Days later, she found herself in a nightmare. After supporting a collection of books with diverse perspectives, she faced death threats and was called a groomer, a pedo, and a porn-pusher. Instead of withdrawing like the dark-money groups funding her opposition hoped for, she fought back and sued her harassers for defamation and urged others to join her in the resistance.
