I read a lot. I also use my local bookshop a lot, I love books.

I got banned yesterday!

I thought I would help them out whilst I was there. All I did was move all the bibles into the fiction section!

    Oh dear.

    That's sad. I hope they let you back in soon.

    When borrowing books from the local library I was amazed that someone had taken it upon themselves to cross out words and insert their own, the start of literary censorship, Hitler used to burn books didn't he?

    I use my library a lot. I've never come across this. I can't imagine why anyone would deface a book. Just don't read it if you don't like it, that's what I do.

    I got thrown out of my library for making all the Korans point to Mecca.

    I had thought of having my copy of the Koran on my Kindle, but thought that might be inflammatory.
