I like to read by author and find those short novellas and freebies are often enough to let me know if I want to read more of that author (or maybe if a new author wait until they mature a bit)

But I'm thinking I might start using it for other types of book too. There are the classics I will probably never read fully but keep for reference. Also things like the Barsoom books which I got as a single book, split, read the first and feel like I'll probably never read the other ten. The complete works of HG Wells anthology contains stuff I'll almost certainly never read - his political essays and so on - but I'll be surprised if I don't end up reading The Time Machine or War of the Worlds again every couple of years. However that part of the TBR tends not to grow. So whether I finally end up reading them or not the main thing is whether the overall count is going down or not. Which of course it isn't. |
