I've found that for just about anything I put in the search on Kobo, even if it's the exact title of a book, in the top 1 or 2 results will be a "romance" title. Commonly with covers more suited to a porn/fetish shop than a general bookstore. More than a few are downright disturbing. Maybe they've realized that you have to be a masochist to shop there, so that's who they're targeting themselves towards.

Honestly it's a big reason I'm using Kobo less and less. They really seem to have gone to some trouble to communicate that, whoever their target market is, it isn't me.
