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 1617 Views
This is the only place. Tom - 10/11/2013 04:26:22 PM 1300 Views
Maybe, but I'm a bit skeptical Larry - 11/11/2013 12:14:36 AM 1251 Views
If you want to attract NEW readers, the site needs to be reworked from scratch Werthead - 13/11/2013 01:06:41 PM 1181 Views

That might be swimming upstream against a strong current Larry - 22/11/2013 08:41:15 AM 1226 Views

Locus Online also has good lists of upcoming/new SF/F releases Larry - 11/11/2013 12:16:18 AM 1222 Views
The Economist, NYT, and WSJ The Shrike - 11/11/2013 01:05:36 PM 1157 Views
Very true Larry - 14/11/2013 07:57:14 AM 1239 Views
I'm skeptical of the Economist. Tom - 16/11/2013 05:02:47 PM 1215 Views
Which books were those? The Shrike - 19/11/2013 03:19:59 PM 1207 Views
There were at least four or five bad reviews. Tom - 30/11/2013 05:41:45 PM 1200 Views
I remember reading that book. I don't recall being impressed by it. *NM* The Shrike - 05/12/2013 03:37:59 PM 632 Views
I've essentially stopped reading A Deathwatch Guard - 11/11/2013 12:36:51 AM 1370 Views
I don't think very highly of the discussions on r/fantasy Larry - 11/11/2013 08:25:54 AM 1396 Views
I've never even been to r/fantasy A Deathwatch Guard - 11/11/2013 08:31:11 AM 1184 Views

I'd say this place is still the most influential for me. Legolas - 11/11/2013 10:29:19 AM 1180 Views
For some odd reason, I distrust Goodreads Larry - 14/11/2013 07:58:29 AM 1343 Views
"Distrust"? Interesting word choice. Legolas - 14/11/2013 09:32:35 PM 1319 Views
Perhaps, but I think "rating-based" reviews distort views to fit into a template Larry - 22/11/2013 08:47:18 AM 1114 Views

Ah, I understand a bit more now. Thanks. Larry - 22/11/2013 08:50:26 AM 1153 Views
Here mostly too. And bookshops over here. Rebekah - 12/11/2013 06:54:05 PM 1152 Views
Bookstores here generally don't do recs very well (outside of independents, that is) Larry - 14/11/2013 08:02:16 AM 1209 Views
I have list of things to read longer than I have time to read random thoughts - 13/11/2013 05:39:59 PM 1130 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 1084 Views

I don't really care to learn about new books. ranagrande - 21/11/2013 08:58:44 PM 1151 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 1136 Views
