Option 1

 * Article title
 * Puberty blocker - Although unrelated to challenged books, the use of puberty blockers elicits the same public reception in many ways.


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article doesn't address challenges to the use of puberty blockers. I would hope to further discuss issues regarding age, adverse effects and reversibility of puberty blockers. I would also like to address claims by advocates for and against the use of puberty blockers and the

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Thirteen Reasons Why


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article as a whole is in need of more work. The plot seems proficient and the writing in the lead and throughout is concise and adequate. Resolving the discrepancy in opinion between the book's relationship with the TV show is important, especially considering the popularity of the TV show and the potential to overshadow distinctions that are made in the book.The article's completeness is justly described as a start class. It seems like a good start, but is in need of much development.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Transgender hormone therapy


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article lacks in addressing controversy surrounding the use of hormone therapy in children. Similarly to the Puberty Blocker article, I would hope to add a section and discuss the issue of age, adverse effects, and the scientific literature supporting both advocates for and agains the use of hormone therapy.

Option 4

 * Article title
 * One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (novel)


 * Article Evaluation
 * There is a controversy section; however, each incident is only briefly listed. There is no general reception section. Among the bullets in the controversy section is evidence of immense critical reception of the book that certainly warrants more than a short list (e.g. 5 people sued a board of education, a teacher was fired for assigning it etc...).

Option 5

 * Article title
 * James and the Giant Peach


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article briefly mentions efforts to censor the book in the lead, but does not have a section for reception/controversy and does not elaborate. I would like to add a section discussing the reasoning behind the challenges to the book and the incidents of challenging the book.
