You don't even need to be controversial. I once criticized The Long Walk from Stephen King since he made an error as how that deadly competition he wrote about would actually pan out in real life. I could still find it several days later, but a year later it was gone.

That’s crazy!! I suspected that might be the case, so I just use it as a book list of sorts, and give the star ratings without reviews. But I’m getting really sick and tired of this kind of censorship! And I have a feeling no matter where you go when it comes to sites, it’ll be the same thing.
