In my opinion, this applies especially to The New York Times.

As you say, they certainly have the skills to pay the bills, but who’s choosing which books they review these days, Border’s?

I mean, it’s corporate book promotion at its best, or worst, depending on how you look at it I suppose.

I’m looking for reviewers that introduce me to books that I actually want to read.

Oh well, I guess it’s all personal tastes in the end.

Cheap but there it is.
