Santa Fe Dead, and HELP!!!!

So I finished Stewart Woods' "Santa Fe Dead" last night and I have to say it was a pretty good book. It was what I would call a straight out thriller as there was no mystery or who done it factor, so it stands on its own for keeping the pages turning. The story line of basic revenge and greed is one that flows through most good thrillers, and this one has it all. The plot line might be a little bit out there (woman who just was found not guilty of murder meets and marries a billionaire in the matter of two days...please) but the story does work and will keep you reading.

One of the things that usually bugs me about Woods is that he seems to throw gratuitous explicit sex scenes into his books. These can get a bit much, and really sometime it feels like I am not reading a novel but rather a porn book or something. This time, Woods lightened up on the hardcore sex and uses the sex to move the story along, rather than spice up the book. This is something that Woods should do in some of his other works. All in all this is a great book for a quick mindless read that is able to transport you into a world of greed and murder.

Now onto the more important subject and I am asking for your help here, so please post a comment if you like.

I have a big dilemma and I don't know what to do. I'm stuck in a cigar smoking rut. I cannot get out. It seems that I can only go to the humidor and reach for Don Pepin cigars, Blue or Cuban Classics. While this is not really a bad thing, I just feel like I am going to get burned out (pun intended) on the Pepin smokes and that would be a bad thing. Why I am in the rut I am in is anybodies guess, but I need to break out of it. HELP.

Do you cigar smokers out there get stuck in a rut with the same cigar over and over again? Am I the only on that this seems to happen to? Is it really a bad thing? HELP!!!! I'm begging you for opinions!!!!
