As part of the festivities for Banned Book Week 2026, we are hosting a cozy Banned Book read-in at Paper Hearts! Bring your favorite pillow, blankie, cozy cushions and stuffies and spend the final hour of the day reading your favorite banned literature.

We are partnering with Libro.fm and Silent Book Club to offer a space to peacefully protest the censorship of literature. Libro.fm has graciously donated some free audiobook credits for our attendees so you can read in whatever format works and feels best for you!

We will also have banned titles available for purchase if you are missing any in your collection.
