I don’t know all the banned books but I’m sure the Holy Bible is on it.
Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman.
To Kill and Mocking Bird; thanks for the giveaway. 🙂
The Lord of the Rings
Not really sure what books are banned but I love dark and scary stories. I’m quite sure a lot of books like that are banned.
Harry Potter
No, I don’t.
I don’t have a favorite banned book, but I have read many! I was surprised to see such a long list.
The Handmaid’s Tale!
no favorite
I can’t think of one right now, but I’m sure there are books that I enjoy and are banned.
There are so many good books that are banned…The Bible is an amazing one. My daughter liked Harry Potter and Judy Blume. So many classics.
There are a few books that I love that have been deemed banned at one point or another. To name a few: To Kill a Mocking Bird, The Color Purple, The Lord of the Ring series and The Harry Potter Series.
Thank You for a giveaway
To Kill a Mockingbird.
the grapes of wrath
To Kill a mocking bird is my favourite banned book.
I took a censorship class in college, and I discovered my favorite book in that course. 1984! I also really enjoyed The Handmaid’s Tale. 🙂
The entire Harry Potter series because it’s full of magic. Still can’t believe it was banned from schools.
No, I don’t have a favorite banned book.
Wuthering Heights is one of my favorites. The characters are so tormented!
not that I know of – sometimes I think banning books gives them more attention than the banner would like
I love the Harry Potter books. It amazes me when I read the list of banned books.
the Harry Potter series
I commented in rafflecopter that I didn’t think so but I saw someone else post To Kill A Mockingbird, not realizing it was on the list of banned books. It’s my all time favorite read.
Carol L
Harry Potter
Not that I can think of but I’m sure I’d enjoy most of them
The Bible. How can we ban the book that tells how we came to be?
It doesn’t make sense.
Harry Potter
No, I do not have a favorite banned book.
the harry potter books
I can’t think of a favorite banned book
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley (1932)
No, I can’t say I have a favorite banned book…
I don’t know that I have a favorite… It’s probably a tie between Just Listen by Sarah Dessen and The Twilight books
My favorite is To Kill a Mockingbird. Thanks for this chance.
I have never really paid much attention to what books have been banned where, so I am not sure if many of my favorites have been banned anywhere. I do know that one by one of my favorite authors, Ted Dekker, was banned in a European country. The book is Emmanuel’s Veins.
I don’t really know any banned books.
My favorite would probably be The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Thanks for the chance to win!!!
I don’t know of any banned books.
To Kill A Mockingbird
I love the Harry Potter series.
WOW a lot of books have been banned: http://www.ala.org/bbooks/frequentlychallengedbooks/classics
I’d say The Lord of the Rings, by J.R.R. Tolkien. Thank’s for the giveaway
To Kill A Mockingbird
To Kill A Mockingbird is the only banned book I can think of.
I’m sure I do, I just probably don’t know that it was ever banned 🙂
Fifty Shades of Grey by E. L. James and the rest of that series has to be my favorite banned book, 🙂
I hate to admit it, but I kind of liked Fifty Shades of Gray! LOL
Harry Potter. Thanks for the giveaway!
I think I have never read any banned books 🙁
The Harry Potter series
The Bible I’m sure is banned somewhere and that has to be my answer.
The Harry Potter Series!
When I was in high school, many, many years ago, the Liberian decided to ban Exodus by Leon Uris.
The book had been on the shelf but she decided to remove it. I went to the principal to have it reinstated. Neither had read the book, I asked them to, they did read it. It was reinstated. It is still my favorite book.
Thank you for this great giveaway
I like too many of them to pick just one.
My fave banned/challenged books are The Great Gatsby and The Catcher in the Rye! Thanks for the giveaway! 😀
Yes, The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
I don’t have a favorite banned book
I love Where the Wild Things Are.
One of my favorites is “The Catcher in the Rye.” And “Lolita.” And Kate Chopin’s “The Awakening.”
So, a few. 🙂
One of my favorite banned books is Native Son, by Richard Wright.
My favorite banned book is the Bible.
