Hanover County school administrators on Friday instructed teachers and librarians to remove a list of 75 books from shelves, including an array of well-known titles.

What’s happening: “The Handmaid’s Tale,” “Slaughter House 5,” and “Wicked” (yes, the one about the witch in the “Wizard of Oz”) are among the books the Hanover School Board flagged for removal.

    Huh, slaughterhouse 5 was required reading when I was in high school. Could just be because I went to school in Indiana where the author is from though.
