1. A lot of the questions are just leading questions leading to the author's descriptions of the books in question.
2. I believe that it's impossible to predict what you're going to like in fantasy/sf. I love Tolkien, Bester, Lem, Banks, and individual books like Neuromancer. I hate just about all other fantasy I've slogged through. I hate Heinlein and a lot of "classic" sf. Reading a description of a book is not going to help me decide whether to read it.

Far too anglo-centric
Having a "First contact" question where none of the answers is Lem is painful.

The bulk of sf is English language

Ask r/books. I posted some of our charts and they recommended completely different shit from different eras that wasn't just taken off top 100 lists and slapped onto a chart which was a big fucking surprise to me because that's what the bulk of their recs are
