chosen.content: No, books should not be censored as the right to read and make choices should be upheld. It is important that readers are able to decide which books they want to consume, and banning or censoring books takes away this choice. Censorship also limits freedom of speech and expression, and can prevent readers from engaging with difficult or uncomfortable topics in texts. Additionally, it can be difficult to objectively determine what can or should be censored, as every decision may be subjective and context-specific.

rejected.content: It is generally thought that books should not be censored, as it restricts the freedom of expression and thought of both readers and writers. However, certain content in certain books may be inappropriate for certain ages, and should be considered by parents when choosing books for their children. This can involve removing or editing particular passages or images, so that the overall meaning of the book and the story is not changed. Other than that, books should generally not be censored.
