Censorship history
In 2024, "You're So Dead" by Ash Parsons was banned at the school level in several districts across the United States, primarily due to concerns over its themes and content, which some parents and educators deemed inappropriate for young readers. The ban was initiated following formal complaints from parents during school board meetings, leading to votes that upheld the removal of the book from school libraries and curricula. Specific details regarding the districts involved or any legal challenges to the ban have not been widely reported, but the decision reflects ongoing debates about youth literature and its suitability in educational settings.
