There are no other types of ads. However, you can't opt-out of the suggested reads. You can't even call them recommendations because they don't even resemble past purchases, unlike Amazon where you can tweak your recommendations so they are more on point. The last straw for me was when I was forced to look at a sexually explicit cover and title for several days. Others have complained about the same thing. What if you give your child a NOOK? But the bottom line is those ads/suggestions should be in the store when you are shopping/browsing. Not on your homescreen.
