For the most part, I have found that reading a great book that doesn't reflect my interests elicits one of two responses: I absolutely hate it, or it was a wonderful read. The latter usually outweighs the former since it usually expands my interests and understanding. While sticking to stuff that I'm confident that I'll like can accomplish the same, it is rarely to the same degree.
