Banned Book Bash

Written by Raquel on . Posted in Events.

“It doesn’t always feel like you’re banning the book itself. Sometimes it feels like you’re banning the people who those books are about, that you’re saying that those lives are lives that should only exist in the shadows.” – Jason Reynolds

 

Thank you for celebrating Banned Book Week. Every fall, libraries and bookstores come together to celebrate the freedom to read.

At our Banned Book Bash, everyone had the opportunity to play Banned Book Bingo. Below are the links for the Bingo card and the answer key.

While we are still looking for a permanent home, you can support us by purchasing books through our Bookshop site and we will receive a portion of the proceeds.  Here is our Banned Book List. Thank you and happy reading!
