These sites are well suited to browsing for ideas of what to read. Bookfinder and Abebooks are good for rare and out of print books, and the customer reviews on Amazon are particularly useful, with a wide range of opinions on most titles. The Waterstones site is easy to use, with reviews by customers and staff. The Love Reading site offers excellent features such as like-for-like recommendations, and browsing by genre. Just remember, it's always cheaper to borrow a book from your library than it is to buy one!
