    I like seeing them but they're typically stocked with either low quality pulp fiction type stuff or things like war criminal biographies.

    Often a combination of the two with things like Tom Clancy books.

      I read a lot of garbage when I was younger (I still do, but I used to, too) and it is probably part of why I got good at reading

        I was 10 and reading stephen king and star wars extended universe airport books. Not quite literature but I was reading. So I get it.

          I think I read every Star Wars book yet printed when I was a kid lol. Even the one with the three-eyed son (grandson?) of the Emperor, and the three-eyed impostor

      Only thing I've ever found in one that was worth taking, to me, was a copy of Flatland.

      Yeah, it's the kind of books people are willing to give away for free.
