NEW: Fairfax County Public Schools reinstates the books “Gender Queer: A Memoir” by Maia Kobabe (highly sexually explicit comic book) & “Lawn Boy” by Jonathan Evison (includes a convo in which an adult male recounts a sexual encounter he had with a male friend in 4th grade) 
“I am satisfied that the books were selected according to FCPS regulations and are appropriate to include in libraries that serve high school students," says assistant superintendent Noel Klimenko.
Both books are recommended by the American Library Association as "Alex Award" winning books: adult books with a “special appeal” to teenagers.
Luke Rosiak threw himself on the pyre and read Gender Queer so the rest of us don't have to.

"Parents or school officials who relied on the librarian group’s summary of the 'great graphic novels,' without actually reading them, would be misled," writes @lukerosiak.
I'd argue this is true of almost every single book recommended by the ALA.
