This looks like a recommendation list for teenagers, kind of how we looked for CDs that had the “parent advisory” sticker.

Reading any ACOTAR (a court of mist and fury, listed above) is such an enormous waste of time though.
Like if you want to enjoy some smut go for it but it’s really devoid of any merit besides being erotic.
Claiming you’re reading when it’s actually ACOTAR is like saying you’re watching cinema when it’s Backdoor Sluts 8.
You might be right technically but nobody would agree with you.

It’s a shame to see Gender Queer on there. I read it for my university class on comic art and thought it was really interesting. I would probably say it’s more of an adult book, but I think just about all the books I read for high school English were adult books.
The author is really cool too. When the covid lockdown happened my professor emailed them asking if there were any digital options for the book, since a lot of students relied on the local library or might have left their copies in their dorms. They sent my professor a pirated link and gave permission for us to use it.

I’d take this with a healthy dose of salt. For instance The State of Wyoming has no laws banning any books. Certain School Districts and Public libraries have guidance regarding books they see as controversial but there is no STATE law about them.
I’m sure other States are being simarily misrepresented.

I like how most of New York is red, except Long Island. Long Island isn’t its own state (yet).
