I like your idea of "random reading."

I lived in a small town as a youth. A local big city University had a program where they would send me eight "random" books, (based on my choice of genres), every two weeks. I would read about half the books before returning them, although sometimes I read most or all of them. I found many books I liked that I never would have "chosen" had the choice been mine.

I haven't tried this approach as an adult reader though. Based on your experience, I may just download some of those "free" books and try "random reading" again!
