Banned Book Blog Hop
Today is the start of Banned Book Week!! Hooray!! :) I will have a banned book review every day this week and a giveaway. Plus, it's a giveaway HOP which means there are lots of bloggers having giveaways. This Banned Book Giveaway Hop is Hosted by I Am A Reader, Not a Writer and I Read Banned Books. Hooray!! Hope you're ready for a fun week.
My giveaway this week is one of my favorite banned books:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Sebastian and Viola, twins, are separated in a storm. They both think the other is dead and must get creative in their ways to survive. This leads to some very humorous moments in the Shakespearean tradition. I love this book. It's my favorite Shakespeare play.
Why is this book banned you may ask? Because there is cross dressing. Yes, really, that is the reason. Some people felt it encourages homosexuality so it is now banned in some places. *shrug* I think it's an awesome story!
