Peace Questions "It's gone. Where I lived It's gone. It's completely gone. It's on the Yellow line. It is devastated. There is nothing. Anywhere. I graduated top of my year. It's gone. What do I do? How do I return? It's gone."

In order to ban books from its libraries, New Braunfels Independent School District has just closed its libraries to middle and high schoolers.
