Deciding Whether to Read a Book: Some Wildly Reductive Heuristics People send me lots of books, so I have to decide rather quickly whether one should be added to the ambitious pile of stuff I already really want to finish reading. On the off chance that you care or find it useful in developing your own filtering, here's my insanely reductive, mean-busy-guy way to make a 90-second decision on whether to read a new non-fiction book from an author I'm not familiar with.

Though the last bit where Diane Keaton finds Warren Beatty stepping off the train is one of the great romantic scenes of all time. Mason has started clucking or maybe clicking.
