Which ones are correct when asking?

1. What kind of books do do you like?

2. What kinds of books do you like?  This one is best because a) you assume the person likes more than one kind of book and b) generally, the singular "kind" would be used with a singular noun or non-count noun

3. What kinds of book do you like

Which ones are correct when making a statement?

1. I don't like that kind of books

2. I don't like those kinds of books. Correct for reason (b) above

3. I don't like that kind of book Also correct for reason (b) above

4. I don't like those kinds of book.

Which one is correct?

1. This kind of book is not sold here. Correct

2. This kind of books is not sold here

3. These kinds of books are not sold here Correct
