Salt Lake City, August 8 (RHC)-- The U.S. state of Utah has enacted a ban on 13 books — 12 of them written by women — ordering their removal from public schools and libraries. 

PEN America says Utah’s move is the first statewide book ban. 

It includes the books “Forever” by Judy Blume, “Oryx and Crake” by Margaret Atwood, “Milk and Honey” by Rupi Kaur and six books by Sarah J. Maas, a popular young adult author.
