Wild Things: YA Grown-Up discussion

Time keeps flying by!

If you haven't done this before, our rules can be found here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... If you have questions, please ask.

Our theme for November is Banned Books. You may nominate 2 Young Adult books, one that is themed and one that is not. Please label your books as themed and non-themed. Nominations will run for about a week.


Don't forget to check the group's bookshelf for books we've already read. https://www.goodreads.com/group/books...

Please include authors' names when nominating. Authors may not nominate their own books!

Thanks!

The ALA keeps records of banned and challenged books.
