I had lunch today with one of my teachers from High School. We’ve stayed friends all these many years; she was only 24 when she started teaching, and I was in one of her first classes my Sophomore year.

Anyhow, she mentioned this book at lunch and how she’s now determined to read it! I love it!

Best Banned, Censored, and Challenged Books

This is a list of books that have at one point either been banned, censored, or requested for removal from libraries.

You guys will be surprised to see what’s in there - subjects concerning Government Overreach, disastrous dystopian nightmares (caused by Government, in most cases) and the things we here at FR all rage against on a daily basis.

Over The Target, Taking Socialist Flack! :)

None of those books are "banned" or "censored." They're best sellers, available in bookstores all over the West, heavily promoted, and often mandatory reading in schools.

Some obscure, small town Christian minister complains about a book, and the New York publishing establishment, libraries, and activists groups scream "Censorship!" and promote it at their "I read banned books!" events.

Meanwhile, all sorts of right-of-center books are quietly delisted on Amazon (disappearing, as though they never existed), and not one peep.
