I look at the title first. See how it grabs me. Then it's the cover of the book. If I'm still interested, I'll flip it over and read the blurb. That's about it. I'll take it if I'm intrigued.

I pick up a lot of my books on Amazon.com as well. And I read the reviews to help me determine if I want to buy the book.
