I never, ever read those sample chapters. If it's the next book in the series, I'll either get it or I won't based on what I just read. Otherwise, I don't start anything I don't have complete, or haven't yet checked out the synopsis and reviews. Even in paper books, I never, ever read them.
A nice synopsis of other books I might browse, but never an actual chapter.

I'm the opposite. I read every one of them. Can't resist.
