As a young…

    Once said by the famous Stephen Chbosky, “Banning books gives us silence when we need speech. It closes ours ears when we need to listen. It makes us blind when we need sight.” I think this book should be banned because it displays delicate and sensitive material and would put bad images into the younger generation 's minds and be corrupted by it. It should only be read by high school and college students because the material in the book can be understood by those age groups and they would know…

The book is a bunch of letters written to an anonymous person who never writes back, so it’s kind of like a diary recording everything throughout the year and he goes through a lot.
