l8r g8r was the No. 1 banned book in 2009 due to the prevalent sexual content, use of profanity and the use of shorthand language.[1] The fact that the book depicts sexual content among adults also contributed to its banning. Despite the notoriety, it is widely popular among children, particularly young women who feel that they can relate to the characters.[2]
