Elements of a good recommendation
We believe the main element of a good recommendation is trust — some recommendations are simply better than others. We always tell you why one book, author, or series is recommended for another.

NoveList is committed to fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion across our products. One way we are doing that is by making it easier for our users to find stories by and about people with diverse identities. Our story elements help readers connect with characters and authors of various races, genders, cultures, nationalities, orientations, religions, and abilities. We also hold ourselves to high standards of inclusivity when curating read-alikes, book lists, library promotional materials, training, and more.
