Teaser Tuesday: For the Love of Books by Graham Tarrant


Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by The Purplebooker.
Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
• Grab your current read
 Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
 BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (Make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title and author so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

"From the moment books came into being, people found reasons to ban them."

"Books were banned because they were deemed heretical, anti-clerical, licentious or obscene - which covered a lot of ground."

Both quotes are from 13% on my Kindle though they aren't right next to each other. They are from the chapter on Book Banning. I'm on the chapter about writers' feuds now.

For the Love of Books: Stories of Literary Lives, Banned Books, Author Feuds, Extraordinary Characters and More by Graham Tarrant is due to be released today June 4th, 2019 from Skyhorse Publishing.
