Banned/Challenged Books
Reading Challenge
2017
Hosted by me so I'd better sign up!

Basically read books that have been banned or challenged. Or you could read non-fiction books about censorship and/or banning books.
There are four levels and I should go for uncontrolled because of my passion about the subject. Maybe I can read, or re-read, the 13+ children's books ;-) There are 130 books on the frequently challenged children's books list at ala.org!
I'm going for creeping and hope to read 2-6 books. With reviews!

Wow. A quick list of the ones I'd like to read sooner than the others and the ones (~) I already own. Plus I still want to go through the children's books that are on the list and read the picture books.

Thank you!
I have no idea why the captcha thing is showing up. I've got the setting marked "no" that I don't want it. Grrrrrr! But, I believe that if you skip entering anything it will post.
