Oh...I've definitely had times where I forgot the title/author, but reading the blurb and/or sample would jog my memory. It seems I'm the opposite of most people, though...I tend to remember the ones that I really didn't like--but then again, I haven't run into that many over the years that I started and found that I didn't like it. Usually reading the blurb and a few pages would let me know if I will like it or not, and if there's any question, I don't start reading it. The only times I can remember trying to read something that hadn't 100% passed the preview test was when I had absolutely nothing else to read--a couple of times when I was traveling and hadn't brought enough books. I can't see that happening again, now that I have an e-reader. Even if something happens to my Kindle on a trip, I have my phone, tablet, and laptop.
