It’s been over one year since Senate File 496 restricted reading material across all school districts in Iowa, and the “banned book” law’s waves of impact ripple on. A short-term survey was held school-wide to determine the different views on banned books. Available for three days, students and staff alike answered questions on whether they had read a banned book before, their feelings on it, and their opinions on Iowa’s law. Of the 33 total respondents, 23 responded “yes” to having read a banned book in the past, with eight of those people replying “I go out of my way to read banned books.” Of the 11 banned book titles offered in the survey, “The Fault in Our Stars” by John Green was read by 34.5% of respondents. “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” by Stephen Chbosky, “The House of Hades” by Rick Riordan, and “Thirteen Reasons Why” by Jay Asher were tied for the second-highest-read book (24.1%).
