Honestly I look at covers and titles for new things to read. I also do this when I'm in a used book shoppe. If it looks or sounds interesting I'll read the cover flap or the back. It's usually not lead me astray. If I'm staying in the same genre but am looking at different authors I'll usually see what if any books are mentioned in a book I know I like. Or I look at the you may also like recommendations on B&N.

Browsing Amazon, particularly 'deals of the day'. Second the thread here on what are you currently reading. I like to go into a B&N occasionally and look at their display of new releases, but since moving I don't have a convenient one to go to. I do belong to a book club where I live now but my participation has been lax of late. I'm the only guy in it and the book selection and discussion is skewed very feminine of late but I do get some good recommendations talking to other members. It also falls on golf day so with good weather, I'm on the links.
