This may be a bit off topic. I'm curious... How do you find a good *newer* book if you just walk into the bookstore without a clue?

<-- clueless

Basically, I know nothing about the great authors of now, not sure if I'd like anyone's writing style. Is the best bet to ask the opinion of someone working in the book store? Are there popular book forums to see what people are enjoying?

I'd like to read more books, but can never find anything interesting just by looking at the name, author and cover pictures.
