here, mostly, but i also have less time to read (sort of) and a lot to read... temeraire Send a noteboard - 19/11/2013 03:49:15 PM

i tend to go back and see if any of my favorite authors have written anything new, and then other times i'll reread stuff.

To whom do you turn when you want to learn more about new books? Larry - 10/11/2013 06:17:07 AM 1528 Views
This is the only place. Tom - 10/11/2013 04:26:22 PM 1232 Views
Maybe, but I'm a bit skeptical Larry - 11/11/2013 12:14:36 AM 1175 Views
If you want to attract NEW readers, the site needs to be reworked from scratch Werthead - 13/11/2013 01:06:41 PM 1106 Views

That might be swimming upstream against a strong current Larry - 22/11/2013 08:41:15 AM 1146 Views

Locus Online also has good lists of upcoming/new SF/F releases Larry - 11/11/2013 12:16:18 AM 1144 Views
The Economist, NYT, and WSJ The Shrike - 11/11/2013 01:05:36 PM 1097 Views
Very true Larry - 14/11/2013 07:57:14 AM 1160 Views
I'm skeptical of the Economist. Tom - 16/11/2013 05:02:47 PM 1115 Views
Which books were those? The Shrike - 19/11/2013 03:19:59 PM 1134 Views
There were at least four or five bad reviews. Tom - 30/11/2013 05:41:45 PM 1125 Views
I remember reading that book. I don't recall being impressed by it. *NM* The Shrike - 05/12/2013 03:37:59 PM 599 Views
I've essentially stopped reading A Deathwatch Guard - 11/11/2013 12:36:51 AM 1284 Views
I don't think very highly of the discussions on r/fantasy Larry - 11/11/2013 08:25:54 AM 1333 Views
I've never even been to r/fantasy A Deathwatch Guard - 11/11/2013 08:31:11 AM 1118 Views

I'd say this place is still the most influential for me. Legolas - 11/11/2013 10:29:19 AM 1111 Views
For some odd reason, I distrust Goodreads Larry - 14/11/2013 07:58:29 AM 1263 Views
"Distrust"? Interesting word choice. Legolas - 14/11/2013 09:32:35 PM 1237 Views
Perhaps, but I think "rating-based" reviews distort views to fit into a template Larry - 22/11/2013 08:47:18 AM 1047 Views

Ah, I understand a bit more now. Thanks. Larry - 22/11/2013 08:50:26 AM 1081 Views
Here mostly too. And bookshops over here. Rebekah - 12/11/2013 06:54:05 PM 1069 Views
Bookstores here generally don't do recs very well (outside of independents, that is) Larry - 14/11/2013 08:02:16 AM 1128 Views
I have list of things to read longer than I have time to read random thoughts - 13/11/2013 05:39:59 PM 1055 Views

I believe that in the past 5 years I have bought more books than I can read if I live to 100. Tom - 16/11/2013 05:10:21 PM 1002 Views

I don't really care to learn about new books. ranagrande - 21/11/2013 08:58:44 PM 1071 Views
I'm guessing you must live in a larger city than my suburban (exurb?) town of 15K Larry - 22/11/2013 08:54:58 AM 1048 Views
