"Lady Chatterley's Lover" Is Among These Iconic Books That Have Been Banned

Written as an autobiographical graphic novel/memoir, "Gender Queer" ($18, originally $20) by Maia Kobabe has been both highly praised for its discussions of gender identity and targeted for those same topics. Its LGBTQ+ content and its depictions of sexuality have been at the center of its controversy. Although it is categorized as adult/general autobiography and graphic memoir, not a children's or YA book, the book's challenges resulted in it being named the most-challenged book of 2021 by the ALA.
