and non-fiction, separate from the stacks, nesr the entrance.

I also watch for new books from my favorite authors by checking their websites..

I used to discover books at the yearly fund-raising book sale. (Library no longer does that.) They weren't new, of course, but when I found one I liked, I would look up other books by the same author and then follow their new ones.

Now I browse sections by letter, but with no particular plan or method. Also listen to book reviews on NPR for fiction and non-fiction.
