Marshall University does not ban books! The information is provided to let people know what has been banned/challenged elsewhere.

2016

Challenged, but retained in the Rosemount (MN) middle and high school libraries despite a parent’s concern about “a graphic sex scene, underage drinking [and] date rape” and also “inappropriate language.” The parent suggested the district remove it from all Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan libraries. The book centers on a teenager, Allyson, who spends one romantic day in Paris with a mysterious actor and later decides she must leave college and return to Europe.
