OK, so I was bored today (meaning that I totally had work that I should have been doing but wasn't) and so I went for a walk to Borders to look around. Now I've noticed before that in the 'Literature' section (i.e. all fiction that doesn't fall under sci-fi, fantasy, mystery, or horror) there are a trillion books by a trillion authors, the majority of whom I have never heard of. So here is the question for those (two) of you who know about such things: if you go into that section just looking for a good book to read, how do you know what to look for? (Besides just looking at authors you already know, that is.)
