I have a giant mixture of how I discover new books, but my biggest thing is mainly browsing local library website and their weekly lists of new releases as well as different book review aggregator sites

In addition to “osmosis” that the other user mentioned, which is my main way of finding new stuff: I subscribe to a newsletter about new releases that comes each Tuesday. Also from friends with similar tastes in reading, and a lot of time from checking the works cited and recommended reading sections in nonfiction books.

Each Tuesday?? Isn’t that extremely overwhelming?
