If you're finding objects by their 'shape', then I suggest that you do not buy a Herald Bobroff Astro Atlas. (if they were still in print). They don't use any kind of constellation/asterism markers, other than a few 'straight lines' between them!
A planisphere & my H.B is all I use.
ps. As already suggested, find the 'part of the sky' with your planisphere n rotate your charts to suit..star hop from there..
