"She is too scared to use her real name, or allow the school to be named. She fears that the school will try to take legal action against her and does not want to become a public figure, where she worries she may be targeted.

Why do people fear books, don't understand it... never happens here, they might not recommend a book but I have never encountered a situation like this. (some books are just labeled "for adults only" or "unsuitable reading for minors" and that's it.)

What is the world coming to?
