Random quote: "The frailty of everything revealed at last. Old and troubling issues resolved into nothingness and night. The last instance of a thing takes the class with it. Turns out the light and is gone. Look around you. Ever is a long time. But the boy knew what he knew. That ever is no time at all." - Cormac McCarthy (The Road)

September 21-27, 2014 is the American Library Association’s Banned Books Week. This mini-challenge asks you to read two banned books from WWE’s list before the end of December. Nothing else is required. Just read the books and celebrate your freedom to read. If you’ve already read a banned book this year, feel free to count it.

For more information about Banned Books Week, click here.

Have fun with this one,

Rhonda
