- Amazon Suggested Reading. I will always try to shop at a local bookstore first, but sometimes the recommendations that come out of Amazon and GoodReads can assist you in finding books you would not have otherwise seen based on your reading history.
- Austin Public Library I feel like we are very lucky in Austin as the library curates some amazing book lists. Don’t forget to browse when you’re in checking out other books or attending an event.
- Central Texas Mycology The best mushroom org you can be a part of. They offer workshops, recipes, and an all around good time, if you aren’t a member, you should be!
