So.... made a mistake and read a bomb of a book.... didn't rate it high but how do I ensure that I don't get book recomendations because of this specific book in my LT book recomendations? Is there a way to do it?

>1 MiserableFlower: You can set whether to use recs per collection. If you want to base them on most of your catalogue, but not select books you want to exclude, I'd set up a collection for that, move those there and turn off recs for that specific collection.

Those who want recs based on select books they enjoyed most turn of recs on all collections, create a collection for recs and put those select books there.

To change the setting, click 'edit collections' and when you click on a specific one there will be options to edit.

well dang. I was hoping it could be simple as a check mark box. Thanks

>3 MiserableFlower: If it's an occasional books, it is simple. I have a 'ditched' collection and just move those there. It's set up not to be used for recs. So once you make a collection and disable recs, it's a single click to move any future ones there.
