Here's the thing: most books that are banned don't make the lists that get circulated each #BannedBooksWeek. If you're a book creator and your book gets banned, please respond to this post with your book and its buy link on bookshop.org. That way we can support indies and banned books 💛

Tell your wife I loved that book. Meanwhile I just put a hold on Occulted. So far it's still available from the youth section.
