How to choose a book to read

Choosing a book to read isn’t easy, both for avid and less experienced readers. In fact, the former may have exhausted the bibliography of their favorite author or of the genre that fascinates them most, and therefore does not know which direction to take. The latter, on the other hand, will not even know where to start, as the choice is too vast.

You can rely on instinct, going to a bookstore and examining titles and covers to assess which ones catch your attention the most. Once you have identified the most interesting volumes, you can read the synopsis, reviews or even the first pages to get a general idea and determine if the content is interesting.

Alternatively, you can get advice from someone, preferably family, friends, or acquaintances. They will likely direct you to readings that meet their tastes. Opinions and reviews found online can also come in handy if you have concerns about a particular book.

Choose from the best sellers

One of the simplest and most immediate ways of choosing is to look at the best seller ranking, as there are many different genres in it, but in general, they are always books that are liked by a lot of people, so they are likely to be written well or interesting for some reason. This ranking is updated often, so new discoveries can be made continuously.

Furthermore, you can search not only among the best sellers of the month, but also among those of the last few years or of all time. In this way, you will have access to not only the latest news, but you will be able to evaluate even the great classics of literature. The choice remains quite wide, but there will be a greater chance of finding something worthwhile.

On the other hand, if a book is included in the best seller list for years, there will be a reason. Another advantage of choosing among the best sellers is being able to find many people familiar with them. It will therefore be easier to get advice, and to discuss it with someone after reading. These are therefore excellent ideas for starting interesting comparisons or conversations.

Choice of books by genre or author

When you already have some experience in the field of reading, it is easy to have a favorite genre or author over all the others. You can focus on them to be more sure of finding something that suits your tastes. There will obviously be books that more or less valid, but the style of writing and narration will still remain appreciable.

This system can prove to be optimal even for the inexperienced, since if you happen to read a book and become passionate about history, it is likely that others in the same genre will be equally interesting. Likewise, if you particularly appreciate the writing of a certain author, it will be easier to appreciate the rest of their bibliography.
