What Should I Read?

I don't know about you, but I find it hard to find a new book. At this moment I have seven books on my night stand. I've read first pages for all of them, and didn't like any of them. So, how do you pick out a good book?

  • Sometimes a friend or co-worker will recommend one
  • I read reviews on Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Powell's Books
  • I subscribe to GoodReads, What Should I Read Next, and Shelfari
  • I look for the best sellers shelf in the grocery store and read the backs of the books
  • I look for favorite authors to publish a new book
  • I go online to my local library and put in a favorite author and read reviews and summaries for books I haven't read by that author.
How do you find the next book you will read? Please e-mail me, I'm curious to know.
