Hosted by BookHounds and I am a Reader, Not A Writer
September 22nd - 28th
It's that time of year again where we rebel against the system and demand our book back!!! ...I'm totally being dramatic. It's banned book week and ever since 1982 the American Library Association has put together campaigns to make everyone aware of the circumstances of this form of censorship.
Some books are banned for small things like language or inappropriate themes for the age group, but other books are banned for things that are presumed to be more serious, but in all reality no one has a right to pull books from the shelves of our libraries and bookstores. If you don't like what a book is saying or what it stands for, here's a clue don't read it.
I don't believe in censorship of any kind of media. We deserve to have a choice in what we see and read. So we here at Pink Fluffy Hearts will be celebrating banned book week by reviewing some of our favorite banned books throughout the week. Enjoy the giveaway and let us know below what your favorite banned books are!
