Unlock Worlds Banned Books Challenge
The top 100 challenged books in the 90s are listed here. I thought it would be fun if we could compile reviews for these books. So if you've reviewed one of the books from the list, leave your link in the comments section of the post that includes the book you reviewed. If you haven't, go out, read a book, review it, and come back.If possible, try to review books others haven't already. It would be great if we could have at least one review for everyone on the list! If you want to read a challenged or banned book that isn't on the list, feel free. Just leave your link in the comments section of the Other Banned Books post.
For every review you submit, your name will be entered into a drawing to receive one book of your choice from my BookMooch list or some other super-cool-fun-awesome-book-related prize. I will have giveaways periodically during the challenge which will run through September 2010.
I hope you join!
