This is a fundamental misunderstanding of copyright.
Copyright isn’t violated when someone consumes a copyrighted work.
Copyright is violated when a copyrighted work is used by someone who isn’t the author to generate profit without prior permission.
You can read a copyrighted book and remember it. You cannot copy it and sell copies. If you want to excerpt it you must give credit and there are limits to what’s considered “fair use”.
