Hmm. That doesn't usually happen for me because by the time something wins or is nominated for an award I generally have a sense of how it's been reviewed. So the award itself is generally a tipping factor -- in fact, The Inheritance of Loss is an example. I was aware of it as being positively reviewed, it won the Boooker, I bought a copy, it was nominated for the Orange, I'm getting around to reading it.
