Thank you @johnbiggs for hunting us and the kind words. We hope to suggest superb reading selections for all of you for over the holidays! :) As an introduction: Riffle is a vibrant online community of book experts whose mission is to inspire you to read more books. Our data shows that having conversations about books actually makes you read more and helps you find better books. Knowing that, Riffle’s chatbot will greet you, ask some questions about your reading habits, then connect you directly to an expert in our community of librarians, genre bloggers and avid readers, people who know and love books. They’ll chat with you and suggest some superlative reads. Our beta is web based but we’ll be moving to native mobile chat soon. :)

Riffle has been doing amazing stuff with books for a while now and it looks like they've finally cracked the book recommendation issue. Looking forward to our book recommendation overlords.
