I like to just walk down an isle of the library and grab the first spine that jumps out at me. When I'm feeling particularly lazy I just walk through the featured literature section. Otherwise I keep an ear out for anything my friends have read and loved.

I walk around a book store or library and whatever looks interesting is what I get.

I usually leave that up to my friends. I bug them about new books untill i have a list of about 10 new books i havent read yet or i go to the library until i find a book i havent read yet.

I usually ask the children's librarian at my local library. I have been in there a couple times a week, every week, for the past 10 years or so, so she's able to make a pretty good assessment of what I would like to read.
Occasionally my friends will recommend something, but they don't really read as much...

I've been browsing book blogs over the past couple of weeks and have found that it's a pretty good way to come across interesting books.

I find out about a lot of new reads via the net (especially on Gaia).

...birds creep over tin roofs, like criminals with tap shoes...

.::i browse the library, keep track of my favorite authors, check the bookstores around here::.

and sometimes i get tips online.
often i ask the librarian or the personal in the bookstore about the new books and recommendations they have :3

I look at different websites that show new releases

not sure, sometimes websites, other times in the genre while I'm browsing at the bookstore. Most of the time I look for series.

The links on Amazon (You May Also Like...) and word of mouth, mostly.

Mostly through Amazon recommendations
because most of the people I know read repetitive
romance novels so I don't ask them for recommendations.

I check Fantastic Fiction They have a section on New Releases. If you want to know if your favorite author is releasing anything, just type their name under "author" or "favorite author", I can't remember which. It'll let you know when any new books are coming out.

Most of the time I browse through Barnes and Noble. I love walking by all the shelves full of books! whee Sometimes I find new books through Amazon.

I hear about new books through book blogs on blogspot.com. Readers review the books they read and if they seemed to like or if it catches my attention I added to my LONG wish-list to reserve at the library.

Also, I am very fond of the BN website since there are many spotlight books on the Teen section of the site. That and I just randomly look at people's reading lists on the website as well and if a cover/title catches my eye then I add it.
