A list of books most objected to by US public schools and libraries has been released and it includes Mark Haddon's The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time and the Holy Bible. Books are challenged by readers on the grounds of too much sex and violence (or for legal and moral issues raised). The Bible was sixth on a list topped by John Green's Looking for Alaska, cited for "offensive language and sexual content". The runner-up was, predictably, EL James's raunchy romance Fifty Shades of Grey."Some people feel that, if a school library buys a Bible, it's a violation of church and state," says James LaRue, director in the Office for Intellectual Freedom for the American Library Association, which released its annual top-10 snapshot of challenged books, in its State of Libraries Report for 2016.I Am Jazz, a transgender picture book by Jessica Herthel and Jazz Jennings, was No3, followed by another transgender story, Susan Kuklin's Beyond Magenta.The list also includes The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time, Alison Bechdel's Fun Home, Craig Thompson's Habibi, Jeanette Winter's Nasreen's Secret School: A True Story from Afghanistan and David Leviathan's Two Boys Kissing, with one objection that it "condones public displays of affection"."Books dealing with diversity are often challenged," LaRue said.Works challenged in recent years range from Harry Potter novels to Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird. ..
