It's an interesting premise. I found it interesting how after adding "Heir to the Empire" as a book, I saw several other Star Wars novels pop up in the suggestions.
Hilariously, If I added books from a wide variety of genres that I liked, the results became more and more focused on romance novels, which makes sense since it's not a genre I have much interest in.

I'm using a very slow computer (intentionally) and I can't look up anything. Even if the title pops up in find-as-you-type neither clicking it or pressing Enter moves me forward. Too bad, I was very interested.

Edit: it finally worked. But it's slooow as hell.
