I too have done the survey multiple times.

I sometimes wonder about how Kobo has come up with some of the recommendations; they seem bizarre from my history. The second book of 50 Shades of Grey - really? I haven't read the first, why would I be intersted in the second...

It seems a bit disingenuous to recommend to me a book I have added to my wishlist. But I suppose they are correct; it is a book I am likely to be intersted in.

But by far the strangest is recommending to me a book I have already bought from Kobo and read. It is on their servers as having been bought and it is in my reading stats as finished. Maybe they think I liked it so much I should read it again?

But, all things considered, I still like the recommendations as they ahve on occasion pointed me to books that I probably wouldnt have found otherwise.
