reading from a selected list, which implied the list is not selected by the reader who uses it, wont allow for real individual exploration, finding ones own unique combination of tastes. thats without considering that most lists generated by large audiences wont include books from ibdependent presses, difficult books, or books that do in fact offer a broader view and different perspective of subject matter. most aggregations result in watered down and untimately forgettable literature; next time you have the opportunity, ask a bookseller (preferably one at an independent bookstore) what they think of the new york times "best sellers"
