Guest Blogging Again: How do you find new books?

My monthly blog at APEX is up today. This month I'm talking about the fact that I can't go to the bookstore and simply browse for new books and authors like I used to . . . and the fact that it's put a crimp in my book buying style. I like to support new authors, but since I can't find them on the shelf as easily anymore, I know I'm missing out on a bunch of them out there, since the only way I hear about them anymore is word of mouth. So I pose the question: How do you find new books? You can answer here or over at the APEX blog.

My TBR pile is truly scary. I usually take recommendations from friends. In fact, that's how I found your books. Of course, my friends are all on Good Reads, so if I can't get hold of them, I look there.

Yeah, the rec from friends seems to be how I'm finding most of my books lately.
