It's Banned Book Week!
I am completely against book bans in any form. Parents have the right to determine what's appropriate for THEIR and only THEIR children to read, not all of us.
SOMEONE I USED TO KNOW was banned in a Florida school district and it just tortures me. I've had so many readers -- male readers, too! tell me how the novel helped them understand a complicated issue a bit more clearly.
I hope you'll join me in resisting book bans by reading all of the books libraries and schools are being forced to remove from their shelves, including mine.
Visit the Brooklyn Public Library to learn more about their program "Books Unbanned."
