I'm curious if it's possible to screen for this on the BK site. I mean, I go to the latest books list, but it has all of the text books, etc mixed included which I have know interest in. Can we establish criteria that just gives the nonfiction or fiction like this? Is that where you get this list? Also, how does a "how to write poetry" book get on the fiction list.
