The Book That Wouldn't Burn is by Mark Lawrence. The first book in the fantasy Library series. A young girl is rescued by a band of soldiers when enemies destroy her settlement and kidnap her along with several other children. Taken to the city, she is apprenticed to The Library - the main source of knowledge for this society. A young boy has been trapped in an unknown section of The Library his entire life. When these two meet, things come to light that will change everything they know. This is a strange book. I liked it, but honestly not enough to continue the series.
Ratings: 9th grade - 7 out of 10 - AC (mature thematic content) - V (violence) - P (profanity).
