I don't have much luck with recommendations; I've assumed it's because the books I request are not conventionally popular. I do understand that, but it's frustrating when I have to wade through a welter of newly added romance and mystery titles to find the odd history offering if I'm lucky. I think the algorithm may place too much emphasis on circulation and not enough on meeting all needs.
