A recent discussion at H&H HQ yielded some differing opinions on reading an excerpt from a book prior to its release—some of us like to know precisely what we're getting into, whereas others like their interest to be piqued with the back cover blurb, and prefer to read the book when they actually have the whole thing in their hands.
Where do you stand? Do you like to read excerpts from as yet unreleased books, or do you prefer to wait until the book is out?
