I Read Banned Books by Laura Korzon – Mudpuppy – 500 pieces
You’re damn right I do! In fact, when I do a puzzle like this or read about banned books, it only makes me want to read them even more; I wonder if those book-banning d**che-bags understand that at all. Probably not, that would take critical thinking skills, logic, and comprehension.
This was a fantastic puzzle with very good quality that went together quite quickly – in fact it was almost too easy and I found myself wishing it was 750 or 1000 pieces to make it last a bit longer.
Although I don’t care for the backing Mudpuppy uses, and wish there was more than one piece shape, it was otherwise a very good quality puzzle. The fit was excellent, and the image reproduction was stellar. In fact, the fit was so good that….
I don’t know why it makes me so happy to be able to take pictures like this, but hey, if it makes me happy to take a stupid picture of a puzzle standing up – why not? It’s a little thing, and it really does make me smile. 😁
On the back of the small poster that comes with the puzzle is a little blurb about each of the books with one or two sentences describing what they’re about. A couple of the books I’d never heard of, and a few I’ve heard of but haven’t read. Finding out what they’re about has made me want to read them all. I’ve only read three of the nine books shown, but I’d definitely be interested in reading the rest of them.
This really was a fun, good quality puzzle. If it looks like it would be your pile of pieces, go for it! It’s very highly recommended – two stacks of banned books 📚📚 and two thumbs up! 👍👍
*Heartfelt and special thanks to my dear friend and fellow Puzzle/PADS Posse member Penny for this lovely birthday gift. I absolutely adored it! 💖*

So glad ypu liked it! It’s funny, sometimes I will see a puzzle image and I will think, “Oh wow, I bet Stacy would like this one.” And then there are other puzzles like this one, where the image absolutely screams Stacey! LOL

So bright and colorful! Love it! What a wonderful friend.
I’ve only read 3 also. Instead of banning I wish they would just start the book with a little blurb about how the book was written in different times or took place in different times and it’s important to look at our past and not repeat. Use the books as a learning tool. But the books that are almost pornographic, I don’t feel they belong in schools. Just my opinion.

This is a thoughtful gift, and I like your standing up puzzle pic. One of the books I’ve never heard of, and six of them I’ve read. —Di

Oh, and it’s nice that there’s a brief blurb describing each of the books. Informative.

I liked that very much as well, some of the books I’d heard of but didn’t know what they were about. It was nice to read about them.

Love the image, too bad about the boring piece shapes. That’s the reason I very rarely buy Galison / Mudpuppy puzzles.

Same here, they have some great images, but geez – give us some variety in piece shapes, huh?
