That's kind of why I swing in and out of Marvel. I usually keep up with what's going on in X-Men, to a point, but sometimes it just makes me sad and/or angry, which is not a fun way to be when reading comics.
ETA: Astonishing is not a reboot. Don't expect to find Scott and Jean though. Jean is still dead and Scott's off being a war criminal. Liu's trying to write a fun and interesting series, so she's not dealing with any of that. Teenage Jean from the past has made a recent appearance in All New X-Men, along with the rest of the original team, and it looks like she'll be sticking around for a while.
Marvel has generally been pretty good about not having the characters exist in a vacuum, but they can only keep juggling so many characters through so many books. Except Wolverine. Even the editors joke that he can exist in 1000 places at once.
