For the third day of Banned Books Week I'm picking Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury!! I totally love this classic and I know all of the books I've highlighted thus far are classics, but they are my absolute favorites!!!
I love Fahrenheit 451 because of the story line and the attempt to break free from societal norms. I also enjoy that it is a book about people reading books!!
This is a banned book which is SUPER ironic because it is about the future and how books were banned from people!!! It is also banned because one of the books that was burned and banned in this futuristic society was the Bible.
I VERY much recommend this book!! Go and pick up a copy now to celebrate the rest of Banned Books Week!!!
Reading tip: look up what each characters name means... Yes, Bradbury had a purpose!!!
