I don't see why. People with similar tastes and interests will congregate in the same virtual places, so their recommendations are likely to carry more weight than a review in a general purpose magazine.
With ebooks there is no real reason why you can't let people read half, most, or all of your book before they decide whether it is something they want to pay for or not. So if someone with similar tastes to you says "Hey, this book is above average", there would be nothing to lose by trying it.
