LEESBURG, Fla. -- Many Leesburg parents say they want some books in the "Gossip Girls" collection banned from the young adults section. Eyewitness News learned that the books contain steamy sex stings and drug use by teenage girls.

"Only in Your Dreams: A Gossip Girl Novel," (read excerpt) is one of the books that some parents say is very racy. The other is "The Bermudez Triangle (read excerpt)."

Many mothers told Eyewitness News that they're not promoting censorship. The parents say they believe the two volumes belong among the adult books in the library. They say the racy topics and bad language don't belong in a room frequented by 12 year olds.

UPDATE TO STORY: "Racy" Books Will Stay In Young Adult Section
READ EXCERPTS: Only in Your Dreams | The Bermudez Triangle

The books are shelved in the Young Adult Reading Room at the Leesburg Library. Dixie Fechtel says she was shocked at the content of the books geared to young readers and she thinks other parents would be too.

"Every holiday is an excuse for sweet Pagan love. I usually don't have to picture it because it happens right in front of me," read Fechtel from a book.

Dixie Fechtel's daughter borrowed a book for a road trip. The Leesburg mom thinks it has no place in the young adult section for 12-18 year olds and she's found an ally in Dianne Venetta.

"While some people might debate if that material is okay for a 15 -year-old, I don't think many would argue its okay for a 12-year-old," said Venetta.

What Fechtel and Venetta are referring to are chapters entitled, "Helmets are almost as important as condoms" or passages that reference, "A king-sized bed divided into sections; One for sleeping, one for eating, one for watching TV and one for sex."

"I didn't find anything they don't see on television," said library director Barbara Morse. "I think they're in the right place and if they were in the adult section, they would want to read them and we would have them choosing books in the adult department that they aren't ready for."

The Library Advisory Board will weigh in on the issue at a meeting Wednesday, where they are expected to make a recommendation.

"We are all for open access, but at what point do you say, 'This is not okay for our kids,'" said Venetta.

The Advisory Board's recommendation is not binding, which means if the recommendation doesn't go as expected for other side, the next stop could be the City Commission.
