I do this all of the time. Though admittedly, I'll usually look up a blurb as well just to make sure it is something that I want to read.

I would probably look at it and then decide if it was something I might enjoy. Not everyone has the same taste.

It depends. I would read a book anyone recommended if it sounded like something I would enjoy.
