Banned Book Giveaway Hop


I love to read and the thought of not being able to read something because it has been banned or been censored is just horrible and wrong. Below is the top 10 challenged books of 2010. To see more challenged books click here and check out the ALA (American Library Association).

1) And Tango Makes Three by Peter Parnell and Justin Richardson
2) The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie
3) Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
4) Crank by Ellen Hopkins
5) The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins
6) Lush by Natasha Friend
7) What My Mother Doesn't Know by Sonya Sones
8) Nickel and Dimed by Barbara Ehrenreich
9) Revolutionary Voices edited by Amy Sonnie
10) Twilight by Stephenie Meyer

These are such great books I can't imagine not ever being able to read these great titles... My daughters would of just had a fit if they wouldn't of been able to read Twilight... They have read the books at least 2 times and we can't even count the times they watched the movies...


I am participating in the Banned Books Giveaway Hop.... This wonderful giveaway hop is hosted By I am A Reader, Not a Writer and I Read Banned Books.... There are over 230 blogs signed up for this great blog hop.... Good Luck....
