Social media (goodreads/tiktok/reddit)? Colleagues? Friends? Browsing the library/bookstore? Asking for recommendations from staff at libraries/bookstores?

BONUS: if you can remember, how did you find books you really enjoyed?

I realized a lot of my favorite book recs came from reddit. I was a subscriber of r/books and picked up some really good books there. Piranesi by Susanna Clarke is an example.

    I get most of my recent recommendations from Reddit, and tiktok. My library puts great lists on its website, which I like to browse sometimes. I search for finalists and winners of the Booker Prize and Hugo Awards. I have found some great books that didn’t actually win the prize. I love going to used bookstores too.

    I recently started to read a book from each country, from A Year of Reading the World
