She recently got the news that her new book, Through Mom’s Eyes: Simple Wisdom from Mothers Who Raised Extraordinary Humans , had reached No. 1 on the New York Times bestseller list. “I just screamed,” the mom of three says. “I’ve had voice problems in the past, so I don’t scream. I don’t even remember the last time I allowed myself to—but this one had just come out. I was so elated.” It was a joyous moment after a year marked by the painful loss of her husband, Uche, and, months later, her beloved grandmother.

Jones got the idea for the book after watching NBA all-star Steph Curry linger after a Today segment, shaking hands and taking time with everyone he met. His kin...

And while that does happen, the book has been getting attention for a different reason. The American Library Association (ALA) recently announced that Sold , published in 2006, was the most challenged book of 2025. It has been on the ALA’s list for the past two years, ranking eighth in 2024 and 10th in 2023, because of claims that it’s sexually explicit. It has also appeared on PEN America’s Index of School Book Bans since 2021, peaking in 2024, when it was the second-most-banned book of the year. According to the ALA’s Office for Intellectual Freedom, more than two-thirds of challenges resulted in a library ban last year.
