Of course you're right. No point trying to force myself to like something, especially when I have a large backlog of free TBR books waiting for me.
This forum has been a real eye opener for me, though. I also assumed most sci-fi/fantasy readers were younger males. I couldn't have been more wrong.
I still can't help but think I am missing something and may download one when I see a freebie that seems interesting. If I ever get in the mood for something totally different, it will be there. Ereaders give people options like this, it's so great.
