And it's not like Maas is an unknown writer, apparently she's sold some 12 million books. The real question is why didn't school librarians take these books out of their libraries without this law? And why were they there in the first place?

I've had high school teens, six of them, and I would definitely not have wanted them reading this crap.
Because the librarians are all for the freedom to read. It's a bad day for the students when books are banned because of some asinine people.
