It's almost like a horizontal scroll version of this blog post. I guess it's the small sample size.
- baraah 10y agoThe same thing can be seen for Bill Gates' books of 2016 that was posted here recently.
- ChuckMcM 10y agoActually it is the large sample size. Book lists tend to do this when read by a lot of people, especially if they pull their cover art from Amazon. There was a hack whereby a person used AWS resources to generate this sort of effect on demand. The result was, as expected of such a prank, books on conservative theology having "also viewed" lists which were primarily erotica. Amazon "fixed" this by ignoring item views from addresses within it's own IP space but apparently it still works for lookups from a bunch of IPs.
