Looking for the next great book to read?

Sometimes trying to find the next book to read can seem daunting. Here's a great resource for finding good recommendations of currently published books from those on the literary frontlines--independent bookstore owners and employees. The American Booksellers Association--the nonprofit trade association for independent bookstores--publishes a monthly online list of book recommendations from independent bookstore employees called the "Indie Next List." Each recommended title is accompanied by a short synopsis and critique written by the bookstore employee. Choosing books from these lists can be a great way to mix up your reading a bit by discovering a new writer or trying a new genre.
