Hard to believe that this is the last day of Banned Book Week.  We, here at The Things You Can Read, continue to read works of banned or censored authors.  If you haven't already, check out our Classics Challenge page, where you will see many works that have been banned through the ages, and consider joining the Classics Club!

Post a comment sharing your successful celebration of Banned Book Week.  We'd love to know.  

Happy Banned Books Week Reading!
