A collection of books that are banned or challenged. Dive into these controversial works and explore what has been pushed for you to not discover.

A list of Banned or Censored books (from around the world) that I want to read and form my own opinions about...

Fuck censorship! This is not in support of this group but to bring awareness of their actions. Started by Cierra Clarke of Twin Falls, Idaho Moms for Liberty has challenged more than 95 books in the districts collection, two of which have been removed. This is a list of the books challenged as of 2026.

Books that were adapted into movies (not tv shows). Let's make this list as long as possible!

(going to only add the first book in a series)

Books that are banned/challenged most often in the United States, based on data from the American Library Association. Resist censorship 🛑

All of these are from the list that Texas lawmaker Matt Krause in October of 2021 tried and in many cases succeeded to get banned from classrooms and school libraries. There are quite a few interesting and odd choices in there which is part of why I wanted to share this list on here. Not necessarily recommendations but there are some pretty good books on here. As well as a lot of textbooks

For the readers out there who were on the internet with no restrictions in the early 2010s XD

Please comment which book was your favorite during this era!

Unfortunately here in the US, a lot of books are banned in schools for ridiculous reasons. Here are just a few of them.

In October 2021, Texas State Representative Matt Krause initiated an inquiry targeting a list of approximately 850 books in Texas public schools, alleging they could cause "discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress" regarding race or sex. The list disproportionately targeted LGBTQ+ topics, race/racism, and sex education.

This is my project to read through this list for myself - utilizing my local library system for access to these titles. Follow the journey or join along!

A gallery of books selected on covers that are unique. Most of these are from actual paintings. Different types of art selected. The books listed below are just my opinion. Recommendations are welcome

it's the 2010s, you're watching the vlogbrothers on youtube & watching the hunger games movies with your friends in cinemas

As a proud Pennsylvanian I had to make a list of books in PA :)

Middle grade and YA novels whose main characters are artists. Recommendations are always welcome — the only requirement is that the main character must be some sort of artist (painters, writers, dancers, musicians, chefs, and more are all acceptable) and that their love of art must play a key role in the plot.

Home, sweet home. Books about/set in Pittsburgh

Books I - as a teacher - would recommend to teenagers if they need to do a book presentation or book report
