QotD: Book Recommendations

Where do you get recommendations for new books to read?

I don't normally solicit recommendations for new books these days, since I can barely find time to study for this exam as it is.  As I think about what I have read over the past two years, it has mainly been books I have read about (usually in the NYTimes) or have seen talked about on Oprah or John Stewart.  Here and there a recommendation from a friend has had an impact and occasionally like my most recent bookclub suggestion, I found just by reading covers of books standing in the bookstore. 

I look forward to leisure reading again in December!!!
