Find Unknown Books That You Might Want to Read
Why?
Mostly you are influenced by people close to you or the media, as to what you might want to read. What if you could discover an excellent book that you might like that you would never get otherwise?
How?
A website and app where members have first to list any good book they just read. After a while, the system will start producing a list of books by analyzing all the recommendations of the members, finding out the most valued books, and discard all of the books that are publicly popular (by scanning major “best” lists.) The resulting list will have all the best-recommended books that are not publicly popular – the unknown gems.
