Since as is the opinion that whether or not a book is good is a subjective matter, why would the purchase of a book by you alter my opinion of the book's quality?

Picture - if you can - my tongue quite firmly planted in my cheek as I wrote that.
As for books that I have purchased, I read all of them. If I buy them, I have established that I will like them. I have on occasion looked at free eBooks, and there I will discontinue reading if they do not appeal to me. I have also been "gifted" books that I did not finish reading, but not once have I purchased one and not read it.
