Need a refresher?  Oh, and don't forget this fantastic development.

Are we all on the same page now? 

Good. 

Drumroll, please...

From the St. Petersburg Times:

Armed with notes and stacks of books, a five-member "challenged books" subcommittee convened Friday to decide whether 10 novels from a Nature Coast Technical High School library order should be purchased.

For two hours the subcommittee scrutinized passages and debated context, before deciding nine were worthy.

The 10th, Rats Saw God by Rob Thomas, struck four members as too graphic in its depiction of sexual activity between a high school student and teacher.

I'm really surprised, actually.  It's been a while since I've read it, and I do remember it being geared towards the older high school set, but I don't remember it being THAT BAD.  Maybe the committee just felt like they had to throw Sandra Nicholson a bone.

Sorry, Rob Thomas.  I guess your book is too hot for high school.  You'll just have to be content with CREATING THE BEST SHOW ON TELEVISION.
