FLAMER

By Mike Curato

Another book challenged for its depictions of LGBTQ experiences, Flamer is a coming-of-age graphic novel by award-winning author and illustrator Mike Curato who, according to NPR, knows boys the way “Judy Blume knows a teenaged girl, and that’s quite a bit.” 

Despite its challenged status, Jarret J. Krosoczka, author of Hey, Kiddo, argues that this book about finding yourself at summer camp “will save lives.” Hopefully, it can find its way into those lives to save them.

Available at Amazon, Apple Books, and Barnes & Noble

Good morning.

Here's one from the latest list:

tricks

By Ellen Hopkins

Many of the books challenged in 2023 have been challenged on grounds of sexual content, and that is certainly true of New York Times-bestselling author Ellen Hopkins’ Tricks, a novel about five troubled teens who fall into prostitution in their efforts to survive and make a place for themselves in the world. 

Described as a book that “turns you on and repels you at the same time,” Publishers Weekly has raved that “while readers may connect with some characters more than others, they will long remember each painful story.”

Available at Amazon, Apple Books, and Barnes & Noble
