Answer

You can try to do the SELECT statements inside a transaction if you need to have consistent reads. Another option is to tag the SELECT statements with routing hints that send them to the master server.

There's also the slavelagfilter, which routes SELECTS after data modification to the master. It isn't currently included in the package but you can build it yourself by adding -DBUILD_SLAVELAG=Y when configuring the build.
