This is a fallacy. The opinion that the probability that something that has not passed a filtering mechanism is not worth reading is very high or at least much higher than for a book that has passed a filtering mechanism does not lead to the opinion that all book that have not passed a filtering mechanism is not worth reading.
I want to maximize that chance that a book I start to read is good so I use filtering mechanisms that have worked for me before.
