Where can I get more recommendations?

Sometimes you just need more resources to help you find your next good read.  But where should you start?  We're here to help!

There are a ton of terrific online resources that recommend titles based on your likes.  I like to start with some of the award winners.  Two of my favorites are the Man Booker Prize and the National Book Award.  You can always rely upon the Pulitzer Prize in Fiction...except for this year.  Despite there being three nominees this year, no title was chosen for the award.  Maybe next year.  The National Book Critics Circle Award is another excellent choice, with winners being chosen in six categories.

What if you prefer a specific genre?  We've got you covered!  Try some of these great resources.

Mysteries
Stop, You're Killing Me!
Agatha Awards

Romance
Romance Writers of America
The Romance Reader

Sci Fi & Fantasy
Locus Online
Worlds Without End

Westerns
Western Writers of America

Reviews of Books and Fantastic Fiction include a little bit of everything.  Fantastic Fiction is a great resource if you're wanting to quickly find every title by a specific author or the next book in a series.

Happy reading!
