    You shouldn’t even be reading used copies of HP. It isn’t very good. There’s way better ones out there. I recommend “His Dark Materials” for starters.

      Alcatraz Vs The Evil Librarians has more of a similar feel to the first three books, whereas His Dark Materials feels more like the later HP books

        I don’t know what the later HP books are like. I bailed after the second or third time Harry lost a positive father figure. That wasn’t the only reason I gave up, but I didn’t feel like they were worth the slog to get though anymore.

      Yeah, those books are better, but have you read his new series? Shockingly bad, I waited so long for them and I wish he’d never written them.
