Banned books! Hooray!

So I’m looking up the ALA’s list of banned and challenged books to see which ones I’ve read:

• Great Gatsby, F Scott Fitzgerald
• Cather in the Rye, JD Salinger
• To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee
• Of Mice and Men, John Steinbeck
• Catch-22, Joseph Heller
• A Farewell to Arms, Ernest Hemingway
• The Jungle, Upton Sinclair
• Bless Me, Ultima by Rudolfo Anaya
• Blubber, Judy Blume
• Speak, Laurie Halse Anderson
• A Wrinkle in Time, Madeline L’Engle 
• The Giver, Lois Lowry
• The Outsiders, SE Hinton

I looked at the list of challenged classics, and most frequently challenged books for 1990-1999 and 2000-2009. I haven’t necessarily enjoyed all the books above, but I’m thankful I had the opportunity to read them. Those of you who see this and are interested should make a list of banned books you’ve read.
