They've obviously not been around long enough to become classics or sink into abject obscurity, so what criteria do you have to determine what is or isn't worth looking at?

I don't have any set criteria. Sometimes people will recommend something to me, sometimes I'll read it by chance. Whatever. Nobody does anything that deliberately.

I read lots of lit magazines and follow lit awards and shit. Pretty easy to find good books that way. The Sellout by Paul Beatty and Brief History of Seven Killings by Marlon James and H is for Hawk have all been amazing and won ton of awards

I just got a subscription to the NYRB, and have been cruising through their classics. Also, awards season longlists.
