Banned Books

Hey there and Happy New Year's Eve!

So I've talked about banned books previously after I reviewed Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. This week I reviewed another banned book so I thought it would be interesting to create a section on the blog that contains the banned books I review because some people want to stay away from those books and some people are drawn towards them. This week I want your opinion on banned books.

Down's Syndrome

Hey there!

So Monday's review was on A Prince for Jenny by Peggy Webb. The protagonist, Jenny, has Down's Syndrome and I don't believe Webb handled the character correctly. My question this week is:

How does society view mental illness and disabilities? Are people viewing it as it is or are they sugar coating it?

Censoring

Do you think schools should ban books, or should we teach our children to self censor?

Dystopian Society

Hey there!

So lately, I've been reading a lot of books on dystopian societies that strangely look like our future. These books have always been some of my favorites. A friend of mine posed a question the other day. He asked, "If you could pick any dystopian society, which would you choose?" I went down my mental list and started naming books. Each one he pointed out that I am assuming that I'm the main character and life kind of works out for me, and that I'm not one of the random people who's life is awful and nobody cares about. So I pose the same question to you, if you had to pick a dystopian society, which would it be and why?

I hope to hear your answers!

Movie vs. Book

Hey everyone!

It's question Wednesday! Monday's post was about The Fault in Our Stars which conveniently enough comes out in theaters on Friday! (I didn't even do that intentionally, it's just the order I read the books.) So here is the question of the day:

What is your opinion of books to movies? Do you prefer to read the book first or see the movie first? What is something film makers can do to improve making books to movies?

Favorite Author

Hey everybody!

I completely spaced on a question yesterday. Uh-oh! So here's your question of the week to think about:

Also, I'm going to change things up one more time. I have been keeping this quote book for about two and a half years now, and I think every Friday I'll post a quote in addition to answering my question...which I've been slacking on.

Actively Reading

Hey everyone!

So last week I got some good answers to the question I posed last week. I didn't get to post on Friday because I was busy getting ready for Relay for Life that happened this weekend. So this Friday I'll combine both posts. So this week's question is:

How do read? And I mean like do you take notes when you read, do you analyze what your reading, or do you just barrel on through? What kind of reading works best for you?
