This Week Question:
In regards of Banned Books Week (www.bannedbooksweek.org/), what are your favorite books that has been banned or challenged? (submitted by Kristin @ Lukten av Trykksverte)
My Answer:
My favorite books that have been banned that I have read and I absolutely love and enjoy is. The Harry Potter Series by J.K. Rowling, The Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins , The Giver (The Giver #1) by Lois Lowry , Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss, City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments, #1) by Cassandra Clare, The Fault in Our Stars by John Green, and I think Twilight (Twilight #1) by Stephenie Meyer was also a banned book or challenged. And one book that I have read that is also a banned book or challenged that I really didn't love but really enjoy was Looking For Alaska by John Green. Sorry for the long list but I absolutely love and enjoyed all these banned books or challenged books that I have read, and I can't wait to read more banned books or challenged!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog hop Ronyell, there were actually a couple of Dr Seuss books that were banned or challenged. But my absolute favorite book of Dr Suess was always be Green Eggs and Ham. And it was actually banned in 1965 at People's Republic of China because they said it portray early Marxism, but than the banned was lifted in 1991 when the dr seuss died. But it is banned in California in the early 1990's because they thought it contains what was deemed as homosexual innuendo and seduction. Can you believe that.
DeleteGreat choices! Happy Hopping!
