Thanks to everyone who has been participating in the great discussions of Sorcerer’s Stone Week! I’m hoping to catch up with them and join them soon. We’re transitioning now into Banned Books Week, which begins today. I won’t be doing a “Day 1,” “Day 2,” etc. like with this past week. But be sure to visit often for frequent material this week on Banned Books.
As we all know, our beloved Harry Potter books have been challenged and banned, and at least a few of these challenges have gotten a lot of attention. So this is a topic that is close to the heart of the Harry Potter fan.
Here’s some introductory reading material on banned books to get your week started:
- Banned Books Online – history and links to banned books
- List of Banned Books at Wikipedia
- Doris’s blog at Leaky is covering Banned Books Week (Doris is also a Pub patron)

Thanks for the link to my blog on Banned Books Travis.
Anyone who is interested, I’m asking people to protest book banning by reading a snippet of a book from the list Travis has listed on a vlog. If you send me the link I’ll put it on the blog I’m writing for Monday night.
I’ll be linking to Travis’ page, but I’m hoping he’ll make a quick vlog for me! (No pressure!)
Thanks Travis for highlighting such an important cause.

Doris, I’ll try! I’ve been planning on doing a video for the HP Progs Beedle the Bard contest, too, so maybe I’ll try to find time to sit down and record them both.
