This is just a reminder that it’s Banned Books Week (and National Reading Group Month). I thought you might find a few of these articles about banned books interesting:
- The San Juan Capistrano School District banned the Twilight series—oddly enough, it banned it for adult content and not for terrible writing.
- Other recently challenged books include TTYL, Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist, and Nineteen Minutes.
- The Guardian offers a quiz on banned books. I failed.
- In semi-related news, The List Universe features the “Top 10 Most Disturbing Novels.”

I loved the ancestry.com ad in the middle of the most disturbing novels. Go genealogy! It was great see you adding to the blog. Have I mentioned that I miss you?
