Actually those taste-based recommendation have led me to read a lot of bad or barely OK books in the last years. What I want is a human selection based on quality. Then I can choose within that selection based on my taste, or because I read a few pages in the store and liked it. Unfortunately, very few stores offer this kind of advice, but it's the only one worthwhile in my opinion. If I could find an online shop that offers this, I could do without the b&m stores.
