And so who gets to define what is good? The publishers? Because you know they haven't got a good track record either.

I'm kind of tired of self-important people telling me that what I like to read is below me and if I'd just listen to them, my life would be so much better.

Amazon provides me with lots of choices. My local bookstore provides me with lots of choices. And guess what? *I* get to make the choices.
