By Jason Boog 

millions2323.pngBesides book reviews, what’s your favorite method for finding new books?

This GalleyCat Reviews editor spends hours surfing through lists on Flashlight Worthy Book Recommendations and the “Customers Who Bought X Also Bought Y” features on major online booksellers. Today, The Millions released an even more serendipitous search engine for book lovers.

Check it out: “The Millions Books and Reviews. That main page is an exercise in serendipity. Hit refresh and ten new random books will appear that have been mentioned on the site at some point in our history. Click on any one of those covers and learn more–or hit refresh again.”

We’d love to hear more suggestions for discovering books online or offline. Share your thoughts in the comments for a future post.
