Depends what you do with said personal copies. I'm not saying you can't do it for yourself(Though it does seem like a huge waste of time you could spend making your own stuff, or hell even a fanfic of the story) but Like if you're reposting the hungergames and all you did was change she to he because you thought katniss should be a guy, you're pretty much just being an asshat.

Or going on blogs, sites, stories, etc and editing them to fit your own personal standards/wishes.

If you're just doing it for yourself and don't really change the original, there isn't much of an issue most of the time.
