I posted this because this got me thinking about how I’ve been discovering books these years, versus many years ago. In the ‘before time’ I would go into bookstores and look at what was being promoted by the store, and also just browse around and open books and read a little bit to see if it caught my interest.
Thinking about now, I think it’s mostly this sub… I look at lots of comments and discussions here, then I’ll go read up about the book and see if it catches my interest. I’ve found lots of great books this way, especially from new authors or stuff I would not have found on my own. Which then got me thinking that I wouldn’t be surprised if there are some advertisers among us acting as casual users.
The other bit was the last part felt a bit wholesome and positive, the authors supporting each other to promote books.
