How Did You Find Your Current Book?

[K.M.]

Tell us about how you discovered the book you're currently reading!

I've got a bookmark in four right now:

On the Road Classic. 'Nuf said.

Brave New World Revisited It came as a bonus in the back of the paperback version of Brave New World, which I just finished.

The Last Boy: Mickey Mantle and the End of America's Childhood Got it on a Kindle sale a long time ago.

On Guard: Defending Your Faith with Reason and Precision Got it on the recommendation of Wordplayer Garrett Amerson.

Currently reading The Traitor Baru Cormorant which was recommended to me by the same friend who recommended The Goblin Emperor (which i LOVED)

Very nice. I've been following Dr. Craig's work for a few years now. Hope you enjoy it.


I'm currently reading Introverts in the Church: Finding Our Place in an Extroverted Culture, I found it on a twitter feed for eBook deals (@Kindle4Christ).

Also continuing my long slog through The Complete Works of H.P. Lovecraft. I grabbed it for free on Amazon when I got my Kindle a few years ago.

I just finished Replication: The Jason Experiment by Jill Williamson, and I found it through her blog, Go Teen Write..."

Entertaining isnt it?

Well Storming I found after connecting with KM on twitter.

My current book is #3 in the Book of Mortals trilogy by Ted Dekker and Tosca Lee. I think it was through Amazon kindle ads.

Cinder I discovered through Nanowrimo and the Einstein Prophecy either through Amazon ads or Publishers weekly.

[LittleBookDruid]

I am reading Vicious and I found that through Kat O'Keefe's vlog.

I am reading Samara's Peril by Jaye L. Knight right now. (Actually beta-reading it). I discovered Truth, also by her, just under Molly Evangeline, on Goodreads randomly. I saw it was Christian fantasy, and had to give it a try! Now I make sure to read each new book she releases! <3 :)

I find a lot of books suggested by Goodreads, Amazon, Twitter and by word of mouth.

The library sends me the NYT list every week. That's my first stop. After that, it's Goodreads reviews, especially if they are on books I've already seen on the NYT list.

I read mostly books that I can access for free (I couldn't afford to buy 300 books in a year, let alone store them at my house lol) so I usually just browse through whatever section interests me that day at the library. I read a lot of ebooks from the library too, mostly YA fiction. I choose those by sorting for what's "available now" in ebooks (NOT audiobooks, I basically hate those) and then looking up any that seem interesting on amazon to make sure they're rated four stars or above. I also have a few books I'm reading right now that I won on Goodreads Giveaways, although apparently I did it wrong because they're all pretty abysmal (which is why I keep putting off finishing them lol). And sometimes I comb through the free Kindle books on amazon, although it's really hard to find any that are worth reading due to the proliferation of free ebooks and associated rating inflation.

I found Mammoth Book of Dieselpunk at Barnes and Noble. I found Black Magic Woman online while searching for local PA authors, and it seems to resemble The Dresden Files, so I went for it.
