Book Hop Friday!!!

This is my very first book "hop".  In order to participate, there is a question I must answer: "How do you spread the word about your blog?"

Well, I actually have two blogs.  This is the first one I started and I began it several months ago.  It all started when my mother-in-law, Mama G, asked me to look up some reasons on why a few books were challenged (to view the whole story, please click on the My Purpose link at the top of my page).

At first, I just posted links on my Facebook page letting my friends know about my blog.  Then I found out about Goodreads, Shelfari and Book Blogs Ning.  Since then, I have received numerous emails concerning my blog.

I love the fact that people enjoy this blog.  I hope to receive many more followers as I continue on my 'Banned' quest!!!!

Happy Reading! =)

  1. Hopping by to visit and follow! Good luck on your reading goal. I think my favorite banned books are all older ones like The Great Gatsby and As I Lay Dying..I must look into some of the more recent challenged books. :-)

  5. I spent all week blogging on Banned Books Week and doing activities in my library to raise awareness. Did you know that a dictionary was actually challenged this year because it contains bad words. OMG! Keep up the good work.
