I’m often caught reading strange books that no one has heard of. Family members ask me: where did you even hear about that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, this article is my answer. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This just going to be a list of the best places to find new books, including book bloggers and vloggers that make great reviews and recommendations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ll merely comment that the best bloggers and vloggers out there really focus on what makes their favorite works good. These people rarely “rant review,” a technique that might get a spike in traffic, but is overall terrible for finding books to read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steer clear of those types of reviewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Better than Food Book Reviews<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Clifford Lee Sargent<\/a> gets my number one spot for good reason. His reviews are genuine and passionate. The title sounds a bit like a joke. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What books would you<\/strong> choose over food?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But make no mistake, the way Sargent describes these books tells you he’s not joking. The best part is that he almost always finds books I’ve never heard of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reviews go in-depth without getting into spoilers and almost always get me excited to check them out. They sound more like literary analysis than review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the greatest parts of these is how he manages to seam together clear, rehearsed thinking, opening the book and reading a supporting passage, with impromptu declarations of things he loves about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just watch this review of Javier Mar\u00edas’ A Heart So White<\/a><\/em>, a book you’ve probably never heard of, to get a feel for it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
