Escaping the suggestion algorithm is what the physical bookstore does for me. Yes suggestions can be helpful to a point but limit the ability for discovery. Books in general are about discovery whether that is discovering knowledge or discovering new worlds. A bookstore is an extension of this. Lists do this to some degree but someone has done the discovery for you. ( and I don't have the answer here ) But we need to find a way to allow the discovery to occur.
