That can be true. But when certain books are best sellers AND end up in 1000s in charity shops in pristine condition and only get good reviews initially in the media maybe they are really junk. Sometimes a successful book is merely junk. There are lots of books I don't like or wouldn't read, or I would even think obnoxious (though I don't believe in banning books), but they aren't junk in the sense I meant.
