I will read them once for an author. After that, I like starting at the meat of the book.
As for reading shampoo bottles, I've given up on such activities after trying to explain to my daughter a few years back why 7 varieties of toothpaste with the same brand name claimed to be whitening, good for sensitive teeth, enamel rebuilding, etc. while the list of medicinal ingredients were identical (same ingredients, same %'s) while the non-medicinal ingredients were listed without percentages but in the same order which is supposedly from the largest to smallest percentage.
