This week’s musing hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading asks…
Most of the time I read the dustcover, or the blurb on the back of the book. Other times I may go to Goodreads and check out what others who have read the book had to say about it. And of course I read a lot of the other book bloggers reviews, and find a lot of new books by new authors after visiting their blogs.How do you decide to read a book by an author you haven’t read before? What sort of recommendations count most highly in making that decision?
I often check out other book blogs too. :)
ReplyDeleteHere’s my Musing Mondays post. :)
Reading other blog reviews is what makes my wish list so long.
ReplyDeleteOh, I may just have to participate in this meme today! Good topic!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my Monday Reading.
I am the same way, read both the synopsis and bloggers' reviews but the genre also has to be something I enjoy. Hope you and Tony have a Happy Thanksgiving.
ReplyDeletefellow bloggers are probably my number one source of recommendations..like I need more books..lol
ReplyDeleteI do the same things when I'm looking for book recommendations, especially the ones from other book bloggers.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like I am pretty much just like you when picking a new book!
ReplyDeleteSame here, the blurb, goodreads and other bloggers may influence my reading selections.
