Sugar is not restricted to mature audiences you know. It's for kids.

Both of those books are loaded with sex and violence. I really can't
think of any books that are more violent, and I can only think of
one book that has worse sexual perversion. Both of them even glorify
genocide, war, and torture. Both have in fact been used to justify
and encourage genocide, war, and torture.

Sugar for adults studying Libral Arts at an Ivy League school?

If you want harder reading material, try consumer contracts. :-(
Those at least have extreme importance to people's lives.
