Could you check this paragraph about books?
Could you check whether this paragraph is free from mistakes and flows naturally?
People have their own likes and dislikes about food. The same thing can be said about books. You don't have to buy bestsellers just because they are popular. You can stop reading if they are boring. They may be good books, but unless you have enough basic knowledge to understand them, you cannot get anything out of it.

I can't thank you enough for your great proofreading. Is it okay for me to ask you a few questions?
1. Is it okay to use 'You can say the same thing about books' instead of 'The same thing can be said about books.' to prevent misunderstandings?
2. Is it possible to use 'cannot learn from it' or 'cannot benefit from it' in the same way you use 'get any benefit from?'
