106503 Well! This challenge is all about reading banned books and translated books! If you have never read either type of books, this challenge is just for you.

We have 3 sections of this challenge. You can decide to complete any 1, 2 or all 3 sections of the challenge. They are -

• Banned books.
• Translated books.
• Both banned and translated books.



1 - Banned Books

In this section, you basically complete any one (or more than one) lists of banned books. The three lists below contain highly acclaimed banned books and you just complete any one (or more) of the lists.

2 - Translated Books

There's a list below which contains 50 translated books (fiction). The aim of this challenge is to read any 10 (or more) of those books.

3 - Banned Books and Translated Books

This challenge is probably the easiest. Instead of depending upon lists made by others, you create two lists yourself - one for banned books and one for translated books. The number of books in each list has to be at least 5. The basic aim is for you to complete those two lists you have made.

TIME LIMIT

- If you are doing any one of those three challenges, the time limit is 3 months.

- If you are doing any two of those three challenges, the time limit is 6 months.

- If you are doing all three challenges, the time limit is 9 months.

-------------------------------------------

Please post all your books and lists below.

Any queries, complaints or suggestions should be posted below.
