David E. Gates featured on Shepherd’s “Best Books”.

I am delighted to announce that I have been selected to have a feature on Shepherd’s “Best Books” website. The site aims to create an experience that is like wandering the aisles of your favourite bookstore. When looking for a new book online, it can sometimes feel soulless.

In it’s founder, Ben Fox’s, own words:

A book is an experience, and the process of finding a book is part of that experience. 

I love wandering around bookstores and letting random books capture my attention. Nothing will ever replace the “bookstore experience,” but I want to reimagine online book discovery with more serendipity and delight. 

To start, I’ve asked 9,000+ authors to share five of their favourite books around a topic, theme, or mood and why they love each book. This infuses each book with magic and meaning.
