Banned Book Week Giveaway Hop, Sep 28- Oct 6th



Banned Book Week Giveaway Hop is hosted by I am a Reader, Not a Writer and I Read Banned Books.

Banned Book Week is an annual event organized by the American Library Association to promote awareness of and advocate against censorship of books. This year, it is the 30th year of Banned Book Week, and ALA has put together this timeline highlighting a different book for each year.

I've always paid attention to it, once I noticed a display at one of my libraries, with some of my favorite books in it. Since then, I've taken my own private glee in reading books that some people have the gall to tell others what they can or can't read.

This year, I read 1984 by George Orwell. I will be posting about it later in the week, along with a giveaway for another Banned Book Week event, so keep an eye out for that as well.

Since I went with a classic, for the giveaway, one person will win their choice of a challenged classic listed here. This will be open internationally- The store I use will be left to my discretion, depending on the winner's location.
