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.

Yeah, I've heard about the free samples, which would definitely be an advantage of the ereaders over the shelfsurfing. And I've started finding new author through anthologies and short stories as well, lately.
