Same here. They send me so many useless emails - especially the ones with suggested books. I don't know how their suggested book algorithms work, but they sure haven't improved any. I semi-regularly go through the list on their website of the "recommended reads for me" and will delete any I am not interested in. I generally am not interested in 1/3-1/2 of their suggestions, have read (and in quite a number of cases, bought from Kobo), about another 1/4-1/3, and the small number remaining are actually something I might be interested in.
But I hate to discontinue the emails, because then I will miss the few sale codes they do send.
