I suspect I will be seeing many more romance recommendations as I rarely buy books from the Kobo site. Free books I tend to acquire from elsewhere -- elsewhere being defined any place where I can obtain the books without DRM. The majority of my books purchases are from Baen and other non-DRM loving publishers.

Guess I'll have to live with the unintended humour of many of their recommendations.
