We are more interested in recommending “books & movies you will love” rather than “books & movies you will like”.
For this reason, we build our recommendations on top of deliberately-curated lists in the style of “my ten favorite novels/films of all time”. Hundreds of writers, directors, and critics have submitted similar lists to various publications. Any aggregation of these lists tends to converge on a small canon that “averages out” any unique tastes. Thankfully, many publications have been generous enough to publish the individual voter lists that make up their aggregate rankings. Movies are built on the most recent Sight & Sound poll, while books pull from several sources.
