I can see how that could be annoying.
Ah well, I gave up "recommending" - in the sense of trying to evangelise a book/movie/song/album - a long time ago. If I love a book I really don't care if anyone else does. These days I often have conversations that start "What are you reading at the moment?" but I never "recommend" a book as such.
