it may be related the way you try close drawer

mToolBar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        if (mDrawerLayout.isDrawerOpen(Gravity.Start)) {
            mDrawerLayout.closeDrawer(Gravity.Start);
        } else {
            mDrawerLayout.openDrawer(Gravity.Start);
        }
    }

First set drawerlayout then set support action bar. Check following code.

Toolbar mToolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.my_awesome_toolbar);
 mDrawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
 mDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, mDrawerLayout,
                mToolbar, R.string.app_name, R.string.app_name);
 mDrawerLayout.setDrawerListener(mDrawerToggle);
 setSupportActionBar(mToolbar);//modified(changed line)

Content and Drawer must be two children of the DrawerLayout. So change your layout like that:

<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:fitsSystemWindows="true" >

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

        <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
            android:id="@+id/my_awesome_toolbar"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
            android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize" />

        <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
            android:id="@+id/book_list_rv_list"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:scrollbars="vertical" />

    </LinearLayout>

    <ListView
        android:id="@+id/ListView1"
        android:layout_width="241dp"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_gravity="start"
        android:background="#333"
        android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
        android:divider="#666"
        android:dividerHeight="1dp"
        android:paddingLeft="15sp"
        android:paddingRight="15sp" />

</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>

Content and drawer should be in different layouts, and drawer should have gravity left.

DrawerLayout

Contnet

Drawer

/DrawerLayout

Update your file like this,

<LinearLayout ....
 <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

        <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
            android:id="@+id/my_awesome_toolbar"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
            android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize" />

        <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
            android:id="@+id/book_list_rv_list"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:scrollbars="vertical" />
        </LinearLayout>

        <ListView
            android:id="@+id/ListView1"
            android:layout_width="241dp"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_gravity="left" //or start
            android:background="#333"
            android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
            android:divider="#666"
            android:dividerHeight="1dp"
            android:paddingLeft="15sp"
            android:paddingRight="15sp" />
    </LinearLayout>
