In recent years, I have mostly read fiction books. I get a few used from Amazon. I pick up a lot at the dollar stores and the occasional close out, book fair, church rummage sale. Most will end up at Good Will. They actually have an online business.
Now days, I think of a book as a kind of chocolate candy bar. You get it. You eat(read) it, and then after a few days it is gone.

And for many kids and teenagers today, Harry Potter is their Lord of the Rings. They are different series but both are really quite good. You have not read the Harry Potter books so you have not had a chance to see what happened in them. Try not knocking something you only know through a few of the early movies (when the kids were learning how to act).
