I'm like most of the comments, I don't avoid the list but I don't seek it out either. My TBR list is way too long to be looking at what everyone else is reading.

That's what I was thinking. No one (thankfully) has given the "bestseller rant". Yet.
The NYT Bestseller list doesn't add or remove points for a book for me, I simply rarely know what is on the list at any given moment so it's a non-issue. Not avoiding it, just have never paid attention, so I couldn't tell you how many bestsellers I've read. There have been some, for sure (probably read far past their reign on the list because I rarely read new releases). Probably not many lately, simply because my tastes have run to certain genres and cheap / free offerings, and those most likely haven't made the list. I usually don't even know unless they
put it blazon it across the cover.
