Midwest Book Awards Finalist
Awesome Indies Seal of Approval

Could the woman who struggles to read be the only one who can save the town's books?

Antigone Brown has enough on her plate. Between managing a quirky deer farm in Mercy, North Carolina, and dealing with the anxieties of an upcoming pregnancy, she doesn't need any more drama. Because of her dyslexia, books have always been a source of personal misery. She is the absolute last person who wants to get caught up in a local culture war.

But when a powerful group of small-town bullies known as the Mercy Study Club starts quietly purging "undesirable" books from the school library shelves, Antigone faces an impossible choice.

To stand up for what is right, she must protect the very things she has struggled her whole life to comprehend.

Joined by a colorful cast of misfits—including her supportive husband Sam, a broken-hearted runaway kid from New York named Ryder, and an eccentric former ACLU lawyer named Earthly—Antigone finds herself at the center of a chaotic battle for intellectual freedom.

Witty, heartfelt, and deeply relevant, Book of Mercy explores the absurdities of censorship and the unexpected courage found in ordinary people.
