From my understanding, I think that she just picks the book, assuming that the author will be appreciative. I got the impression that the author wasn't asked, and he didn't appreciate the "favor". I think it is kind of a double edged sword: the title of being her book club pick practically ensures top ten status on the best seller list, but as an English major, I can see how the "Oprah-ization" can take away from a book's literary merit.
