How do you find books you want to read? (sopuli.xyz)

With so many books being published every day, how do you find a book you want to read?

I usually go through recommendations on Goodreads, and I keep track of what books my favourite authors are publishing.

This is apt timing because I was just looking for a new book lol. Goodreads recommendations and lists, local librarian recommendations (on our library website), www.whatshouldireadnext.com, and I used to use a subreddit for a niche category of books, but I'm trying not to use reddit anymore.

I read the New York Review of Books. It leans to nonfiction and "serious" fiction but it's full of great recommendations and solid stand-alone articles.
