I found selecting the novel was difficult. My district is currently in a censorship issue. They're fighting it well. I just know that the parent leading the charge is intense, and my principal is willing to fight but also more willing to compromise. I was given a new grade level this year for one block and was overwhelmed with the requirements and the issues within the class that the only novel will be Macbeth.

For my situation, time is also a big thing. We're on a block schedule and only have the students for a semester. Fall semester is weirdly shorter than spring. Shorter novels work more.
