Banned books are usually the best books to read no matter what dumb person calls it!

The banned book crusade by the ultra-right has been at once the worst, and best thing that has happened. It’s made me more of an activist for freedom and my home library is growing and I now read more than I have in years!

1984 is brilliant.
Orwell was a solid craftsman in writing.

I've been trying to order 2 banned books every 2 weeks. Used, of course.

Is Ray Bradbury's novel "Fahrenheit 451" in there somewhere? If it's not, it should be. "It Can't Happen Here" by Sinclair Lewis is another one that should be in there. So should "Animal Farm" by Orwell be there.

Wonder why Red Rising is banned…. Didn’t realize it was, but guess it’s another banned book I’ve read….

I asked a customer if I could help her find something. She said "Yes, do you have a banned book section?" I opened my arms embracing the whole store and said "Just about every book in our shop is banned somewhere!" https://reachandteach.com

Ive read most of the books in that picture, but then again most of them are 1984 😄 Not heard of some of them... will check them out.

We should start a book trade thread on #booksky

I love our banned books section in Boise! Indeed required reading. I just read, "The Invisible Man," by Ralph Ellison. It was fantastic! I have yet to start, "The Kite runner."

Don't know who I 'borrowed' this from.

I think Kindred by Octavia E. Butler was banned as well.
