Hey, thanks for trying it out!

I basically agree with all you said. The cover book issue is something new for me :)

Ratings: That’s a great point. A quick star rating makes total sense and would definitely improve the recommendations. By the way: 5 stars or 10 stars?

More Recommendations: +1 for this. Adding a "Load More" button sounds like a no-brainer. I was thinking of adding it before but I put if for later. But I think now is the time to add it.

Cover Images: I’m using an external source for them, so I’ll look into cleaning that up. By the way, if you have some examples of messed up covers - you can share them here.

Really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts - this kind of feedback is gold.

Thanks again!

5 stars ought to be enough. I usually either like or dislike a book, simple as that, so I'd probably give everything either 5 stars or 1-2 stars. Speaking for myself, there are no cases where I'd want to give something 9 stars or 6 stars out of 10.

Here's an example of the book cover issue: https://ibb.co/DQLC584

In the pic, out of five recommendations, one is correct, two are wrong, and two have no covers available.

Thank you once again! I will take a look :)
