This is amazing. Thank you!

Does it take into account negative reviews/comments? I have seen that Why we sleep is being recommended in the 6 months tab, but, while it was received with a lot of praise, it was soon critizised by others researchers in the field and I would expect that the HN crowd would have followed that trend.

When I labeled the comments, I didn't label books that were criticized. So in theory the model should filter out negative reviews. But currently the training dataset is pretty limited in size so you still can see some negative ones. I suspect that with more training data this problem will go away.
