Rebel Reader/Banned Book Challenge

[Lisarenee]

This challenge was suggested by Kristina.

Every year books are banned from schools and libraries across the nation. Sometimes they're banned for a good reason, other times they're not. In history some of the most nefarious groups who've risen to power have been known to ban books. After all knowledge is power. The most notable that I can think of at the moment would be that of the Nazis. So take a moment to peruse the list of books listed below and decide if you'd like to join the ranks of the most rebellious of readers and read the books that have been banned.

This challenge has no time frame. Read as many as you can and set your own pace. If you've already read some of them feel free to cross them off the list.

Here is a list of the top 100 banned books from 2000-2009 according to the American Library Association:
