Americus by MK Reed and Jonathan Hill

Okay, folks, I'm sick of library-related books receiving too much press.  Yes, I know librarians read the reviews, buy a lot of books, and blog a lot. But this graphic novel wasn't anything special, yet it received rave reviews and was a Junior Library Guild choice.  Why? Because it's about book banning at a public library. I felt like I was reading a librarian's graphic novel version of an after school special about censorship.  So, um, I didn't like it.
