Tbf he has a point. Getting to read something you like vs having to for an assignment can be very souring.
Can't be worse than teens reading the fountain head either.

We don't think teens want to read at all, esp. his addicted demographic.

I don't think I've seen a book written by just Paterson in a long while. It's all co-writes.

I wish he wrote more in the Daniel X series that first one was one of my favorite sci fi books of all time growing up.

Pretty sure they have nothing to do with each other.

IIRC, I think Paterson has always been a team of ghost writers.

Both my kids (13 and 11) aren’t fans of reading, but there are some books they can’t put down (One Piece and Jujutsu Kaizen manga). And honestly, I’m all for it if it gets them excited about reading and not glued to their screens.
I even read the books once they are done with them. It’s kinda like a little book club. 🤷♂️
~My only complaint is that the selection at the library is thin and incomplete.~

TL;DR: talk a bunch of shit about James Patterson, but the dude puts his money where his mouth is.
My partner is a retired bookseller. There's a lot of history and context over which I'm hand-waving. But Patterson has an annual [thing] wherein he awards a grant to employees of an independent bookstore for that employee's cause du jour. I forget the numbers, but it's significant. Like... life-changing quantities of money relative to the bookseller's position and proposal.
My partner has won the James Patterson annual award for [some things she was getting into before we met] about five (seven?) times. She is assed out and is not responding to my poking her to ask. Patterson has funded things like my partner's hand-painted/drawn shelf-talkers, even if they weren't for his books. Patterson funded my partner's friend's launch of an independent bookstore.
Hate on Patterson all you want (oh... and I do). But the dude really gives back.
