i read banned books logoGoogle is promoting banned books with Celebrate Your Freedom to Read:

…every year there are hundreds of attempts to remove great books from libraries and schools. In fact, according to the American Library Association, 42 of 100 books recognized by the Radcliffe Publishing Course as the best novels of the 20th century have been challenged or banned.

I read most of the books listed, although why The Great Gatsby is considered great is beyond me: it bored me silly.
