I have the same issue and unfortunately no real solution other than always use the 'Review Downloaded meta'

The problem is compounded by the default titles I get when importing amazon books. For example I have one book with the title

Quote:
The Poison Path: A Gripping Detective Crime Mystery (The DI Hogarth Poison Path Series Book 1)
When I look for metadata from google what it actually sends is a request

So it is looking for 15 things in the title and doesn't find a match but does find several other books in the series than match 12 of those things and thinks that is good enough.

Hence it suggests a completely different book.

Usually I get better results by changing the title to be just "The Poison Path" , but in this particular case I get a book by a completely different author.

I've tried excluding google from the metadata sources , but that means I often don't get any results.

If I'm correct there isn't any way of prioritizing the meta data results as there does when download covers.
