Hey guys,

Thought I'd set up a thread where we can discuss and share our latest reading threats!

 

What are people reading at the moment?

 

What book did you really enjoy on holiday/growing up/any other memory?

 

What's next on your to do list?

 

It can be anything from a fiction book to a factual one, or even a blog (I know there are a few blog writers I enjoy)!

 

Look forward to hearing your favorite literature!

 

Happy reading!

sorry, but have you checked this thread beforehand?

 

what are you reading right now?

 

your idea offers more than just say what one is reading, still there's already a thread for that.

 

Threads merged.

I read Inheritance by Christopher Paolini (:bigcry: it's already finished!)

 

I still haven't read this yet. :bigcry:

 

The Pillars Of The Earth by Ken Follett

 

OMG, I need to read this. I saw the HBO miniseries not too long ago. SO GOOD. :heart:

^^ I figured that was why you have your current custom title. (I dig it, BTW. :D)

 

Anyway, I don't know how many of you are aware, but this week is Banned Books Week. It condemns censorship and celebrates the rights given to us in the First Amendment. So many books over the years have been censored, challenged, and banned. We can't settle for that.

 

Do whatever you can to support free press. Spread the word. Participate in events. Stay informed. Read a banned book at some point this week.

 

(I hope you don't mind the public service announcement, but seeing this is a reading thread, I'd rather put it here than create a new thread, just to have no one read it.)

 

Happy reading, everyone! :nice:

^I couldn't resist it :tongue:

I will soon be done with 'Anthem' and I might tackle 'Lady Chatterley's Lovers' next, which I think was banned at some point in the last century. I'm contributing! :angel:

 

By the way, Violet is there a book you'd like to recommend? I think I could squeeze in a book or two while my schedule is still . . . normal, yes.

Thank you very much for this! I wasn't aware at all of anything like this. Though I can't start reading anything so soon, I'll indeed get information on banned books.

 

This is a very valuable piece of info to me because reading plays a majorly important part of my life.

Oh yes, "Lady Chatterley's Lover" is grand. I think you'll rather like that one.

 

As far as recommendations, to fit in another banned book, I'd definitely read "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" by Ken Kesey. My brother had to read it for one of his English classes, and he said it was better than the movie (which both he and I are quite familiar with). Given that he detests reading, that was saying a lot. I went and read it, and I agree with him. The movie is great, but the book is even better.

Well, the only reason I even found out was due to a friend's post on Facebook, so if anyone should be thanked, it's her.

 

Anyway, it's good to know you'll get the info. Even being informed on what books were banned for what reason helps. :smiley:
