Yay! I love Banned Books Week! It's so fun to remember when books got put on trial in the U.S. Court System for being obscene (I'm looking at you, Ulysses, you dirty book), to think about why people want to get books "banned" or taken out of school or public libraries, and to think about … Continue reading Banned Books Week!

I'll admit I'm a little tired - by the end it seemed like a long summer. But I did it! … Continue reading I survived summer reading
