So this week is banned books week, and since I have read many banned books, I would like to celebrate them.  However, since I don’t have time to actually read any banned books, I am going to direct you to someone who is reading and posting about a different banned book every day.  My dear friend and bestest book blogger Jen brightened my week last week by giving me an award:

And now she is having an AWESOME contest to celebrate her 100th review (that means she’s read 100 books since February….CRAZY!).  You can win a grab-bag of books, but you better hurry; she just posted the contest today, and already there are over 50 entries!! Anyway, I was quite flattered by the “I love your blog award” because she has so many crazy-dedicated book blogging friends who do an amazing job, and my humble little blog (with its seriously humble little statistics!) barely gets updated because I am too busy… I wish I was more connected to reading and the reading world, that was one of the best part of summer break–getting to pick what I wanted to read and just let my brain absorb all the beautiful words.  Now I’m mostly reading words like “ethics,” “practice,” “theory,” “systems,” “critical,” and all sorts of like serious but not so delightful words.

Some of my favorite banned books are:
