 Say I'm an American, but I'm someone who doesn't have as much time to read as you do or I do and I'm only going to take away one book tip from this Podcast video. I'm going to you know walk into a Barnes and Noble or go to Amazon and I want to buy a new book and At the margin, what's the piece of information? I should have that will help me make a better decision Other than just saying well go to literary saloon and see what I tell you to do but more generally I forgot my iPad. I'm in strand or Barnes and Noble well, I think Depending on the bookstore and but it works probably even for for many of the Barnes and Noble one I really think you should have some faith in the staff that they they will be able to best guide you I'm certain at strand for example, which the Booksellers there are book lovers and if you give them a bit of Information about what would be suitable for you that they will be able to guide you I mean, I like to think that the complete review is meant to guide To their books, right? And I so I think on the more localized level in the bookstore. You you hopefully get that as well I think I've bought more than a hundred books because of you so I thank you for that Let's say now. I'm someone who more or less reads for a living Maybe I write books or I'm a book reviewer or I'm a certain kind of journalist Or I work in publishing And you can give me advice at the margin how to make a better book choice something to buy and read for that kind of person Harder to give advice, right?

I'm very much that can't be true You may not have articulated your system. Yes, but I saw you in the strand. You have rules and principles You turn the corner at a certain time, you know what sections to go to right and it's But yeah, it's a very personal selection process. I think and I mean it's I think it's whatever information works for you. One source of information for example is is Seeing what imprint is published a certain publisher. So Um, that if if new directions or new york review Review books have brought out a volume, you know Possibly in what kind of book this might be and so that that helps narrow it down and In a books or with book use book stories. You have to be familiar with the older imprints for example Which just takes a lot of practice, I guess But that for example is one of the sources of Information, but it's it's very difficult. I think to Dare it down I think that's one of the wonderful things of going in a bookstore and of being willing to take a chance and pick up something that Hasn't been shoved down your throat hasn't been recommended in 15 different publications because The offerings out there are so rich that you can really find many things just at the extremes
