Finding Your Next Great Book

Dear People if the Blog,



This is how I choose the books that I read. I choose books in a few different ways. The first step I always do when choosing a book is look at the cover and the title. I know that you’re not supposed to judge books by their cover but I believe that to me it feels natural to and I do, but I don’t completely toss a book to the side if I don’t enjoy the cover.
The next step that I usually do to determine if I will read a book is read the back (or inside of the book jacket) of the book to get a jest of what the book is about. Also, I try to figure out what genre the book is. If I liked the book so far I will then turn to a random page and read it. If I know almost all of the words (not all) and it seems to be close to my reading level I might then read the first chapter and see if it interests me enough to want to read it. In the first chapter I could tell the point of view and the setting (sometimes) this usually influences my decision about reading a book.
Also I tend to recognize what my friends and family around me are reading. I like to get recommendations from my friends because my friends and I tend to have similar taste in books. The steps that I have told you about are the ways in which I usually choose my books. I hope this helped you find your next good book.
Sincerely,
Jared B.
