Nothing is google bombed today. Being highly ranked on Google has a huge financial payout, so you can be sure that if there was a way to game Google, lots of people would be doing it. None are able to. The only way that you can get better search rankings on Google is by doing more relevant and better quality content.
And ranking search results is much harder than ranking recommendations for specifically identifiable books on a database of books. The books are all books, while Google search has to figure out what each page is actually about.
