Giveaway:Banned Books Week September 30- October 6th

Being that I am a Librarian, I couldn't pass on this giveaway. So, you can choose any banned or challenged book on this list. As usual, you will have multiple choices. You also can choose a book by an Author that tends to make it on the banned list, a lot. I was going to put why they each were banned but that would have taken too long. Happy picking!

  63. I've read a bunch from that list, most of them just for fun (Forever, Blubber, Perks of Being a Wallflower, My Sister's Keeper, Crank), although some were required (The Giver, The Lovely Bones). Most of my favorite books (Harry Potter series, Hunger Games series, Brave New World) are banned books. If I could pick any book, it would probably be "What My Mother Doesn't Know" (because I've heard good things) or "The Earth, My Butt, and Other Big Round Things" (because I love the title, and it sounds like something I could relate to).
