The big idea
Library apps know what books you've checked out. AI uses that to suggest new books you might like — same author, same topic, same vibe. It's like having a librarian friend who knows your taste.
Some examples
- Loved a mystery? AI suggests more mysteries.
- Read a graphic novel? AI suggests other graphic novels.
- Some apps suggest books at your reading level.
- Real librarians are still amazing — say hi to them too!
Try it!
Open a library app or visit your library website. Look at the 'recommended for you' section. Pick one book and check it out. Was AI right about your taste?
