What's funny about it (and points up Connect's shortcomings) is when you enter an author's name and a book with that author's name comes up with anything other than 100%.

The other totally ludicrous thing is when you enter a name, such as "Deborah Crombie" which is a complete name and would indicate to most people that I want to see ONLY books by her, that books by other authors whose names start with Deborah also come up, and then they show anything other than 0%.

I know, they may just be hoping that something in those other entries might catch my eye and get me to buy the book, I think they should have a selectable "Show me other books which might be similar" or "Only show me books which match the search term comletely" option so as to not waste my time.
