As it turns out, I love quite a few banned books. (And guys, my High School obviously didn't have a copy of this list, because every book we read in four years worth of Lit Honors is on it. lol) Do any of mine make your top five list?
1. Harry Potter -- all of them. Of course. You didn't expect anything else in this spot did you? ;)
2. 1984 by George Orwell -- one of those books I was forced to read in High School and wound up LOVING. Who knew that was possible?
3. The Face on the Milk Carton by Caroline B. Cooney
4. Farenheight 451 by Ray Bradbury -- Another school book I *gasp* enjoyed.
5. Goosebumps by R.L. Stine -- I can't believe this series makes the list. My sister and I used to devour these books like nobody's business!
There you have it, my list of astonishment as I realized pretty much all of my favorite books growing up were on the banned list.
