Actually, the only book I have ever skimmed through was the 5th in a series, which I had already read, and having then started from book #1 I wanted to keep the continuity going when I got back to #5 again. Otherwise I either read the whole thing, or give up completely if I'm not enjoying it (and I've only done that about 3 times in my life).
