I picked up Neil Gaiman's new Sandman: Endless Nights collection over the weekend. I almost don't want to start it, because I know it will distract me from everything else in my life until I'm done reading it. Plus, once I finish it, I'll never be able to read it for the first time again.
This is probably the same reason I'm hesitating before buying Neal Stephenson's latest novel. Safety first: if I don't own it, I can't stay up till dawn reading it!
