There's the rub...to read or not to read, that is the question...whether t'is nobler in the mind to suffer...Ah, well. I get your point. So many books, too little time. How do you decide? No, really, how do you decide? Is it the book cover? The blurb on the back? The first few sentences? The author? I'm curious as an SF author.
Take a look at the other "Books I'm Not Reading" entries, and you can see how I make some of my reviewing decisions. It's a balance between what I SHOULD review, what I WANT to review and what I simply can make time for.
