I tend to not treat free books any differently than any other writing out there. I approach them, generally, as I approach all books. This is a modified Nancy Pearl approach. I tend to try to read around 10%-20% of the work. If it has me hooked, I continue. If it does not, I move on to something else.
Free or cost, it doesn't matter. If I hit the 10% mark, I ask myself if I want to continue. If I hit the 20% , I force myself to either put it down, or continue. I've read all fiction this way. Fan fiction, free fiction, pay fiction. Serials, Baen books, Asimov's Science Fiction, whatever. It doesn't matter to me.
