I mean, "A Room with a View"? This list could be mistaken for a great books list...it's pretty sad that people want to ban (or challenge) books like these.Ellenhttp://fatbooks.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199256706975499037.post-44534949107226231322010-10-02T12:57:11.719-04:002010-10-02T12:57:11.719-04:00Only 46 of the 100 were confirmed as 'banned&#...Only 46 of the 100 were confirmed as 'banned', according to the website. <br /><br />"The titles not in bold may have been banned or challenged, but we have not received any reports on them."Eclectic Indulgencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09773640906287038956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199256706975499037.post-59469958072443919412010-09-30T16:34:24.000-04:002010-09-30T16:34:24.000-04:00I read 22 ... and have a few on my TBR list.

I'm surprised that Ethan Frome is on the list. I read it a few months ago and I can't figure out why they would ban it.

Maybe parents think its to 'fun' for kids to be reading in class haha.<br /><br />@David - What a champ! We are the same way. Almost all of our favorite titles fall somewhere on the list. Looking forward to getting through more.<br /><br />@Carol - Very nice! Now you have a nice list to choose from if you ever get stuck for TBR titles.The Great Catsbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09436410858315526506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199256706975499037.post-7804046676719455892010-09-29T15:07:59.347-04:002010-09-29T15:07:59.347-04:00At a quick glance, I think I'm around 19 or so...At a quick glance, I think I'm around 19 or so.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199256706975499037.post-10931813970232529762010-09-29T13:11:57.139-04:002010-09-29T13:11:57.139-04:0073, I think.

I am very surprised to see "A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" on there... I don't know what the guidelines are for books to become "banned" but this book was 1) enlightening and 2) HILARIOUS which I think are two excellent qualities. Also, who write trilogies of 5 books anymore? No one, that's who.Gabbyhttp://www.twitter.com/GloryisBennoreply@blogger.com
