About this book

A steamy YA romance about a girl with a bad reputation giving lessons on how to attract guys for some extra cash--only to fall for her client's golden boy brother.

Censorship history

In 2024, "Kissing Lessons" by Sophie Jordan was banned at the school level across several districts in the United States due to its sexual content and perceived immorality. The bans were initiated following formal complaints from parents and community members, leading to school board votes that upheld the restrictions. This trend reflects a growing scrutiny of young adult literature, particularly works that address themes of sexuality and reputation. As of now, the book remains contested in various districts, with ongoing debates about its appropriateness for school libraries.
