my favorite local bookstore has employee curated picks scattered around with little hand written 1 paragraph reviews on the shelf. going in there is like a reward for finishing the last thing i read. i love independent bookstores
a fun thing that works in just about any bookstore is to go straight to the penguin books section. the standard of quality from them is quite high
I basically do the same. The tiny local bookstore I like has a big table in the middle with titles picked by the owner. Something in there will be interesting. I can always just ask the owner if I’m stumped. It’s a bit easier because I’m not a single-genre reader, so I’m spoiled for choice.
