Reasons for Starting This Blog

This year, I have recently been curious about banned books. A couple of questions immediately come to mind. 

1. Why have these books been banned? 

2. Are they banned because the government/school system/etc. doesn't agree with the subjects presented in this book, or do they not understand them? 

My curiosity for such literary works have since increased since reading books like Beautiful Creatures and The Perks of Being a Wallflower. 

I'm sure it is pretty normal for such desires, questions, or curiosities to arise in your adolescence (or life span, actually) and then push you read the books for yourselves. 

So here I go.

I am on a journey to discover why such books have been banned. 

Or maybe just curious about them, I suppose. 

Either way, this will be an interesting summer. But it may last longer than a Summer. Who knows? As long as I continue to read controversial novels, the more I'll have to post. 

Enjoy the ride.
