Opened 7 new tabs from the interesting books to me before I realized this didn't work too. It seems the URLs are not quite "pages" -- opening one and refreshing it redirects home as well.

Nonetheless, this is an awesome project.

Yeah this is my mistake - sorry :(. I'll fix it as soon as I have time.

If it's not too much bother, any chance you'd be willing to put this on a git repository, like GitHub or Gitlab? It would be cool to be able to contribute to: for instance, being able to filter the list to fiction and non-fiction would be pretty great :-)

I might be a bit embarrassed with the code quality - this was one of my first attempts at front end development. I was planning to expand the features of the site a bit, including genre filters, so perhaps I could clean it up a bit and release it when I've done that.

Oh, I wouldn't worry about that :-) if you are concerned, just say it's rough and ready in the readme. I doubt anyone will be critical, and if they are then tell them to piss off!

The beauty of open code is others can help improve it
