21 curated nonfiction books (all 5/5 rated), covering philosophy, psychology, history, economics, and human nature.

How It Works

The server uses TF-IDF scoring with concept expansion (synonym maps for 17 concept families) to match natural language queries against structured book profiles. Each profile includes themes, tags, key insights, emotional tone, worldview, difficulty rating, and connections to other books.
