Very cool. Somewhat similar to my book discovery app http://quotab.ly (discover via random quotes). Where did you end up getting your data? Did you scrape Amazon or are you using their API?

Nice, any plans to do more with it?

Yes! This was really just to establish the base case -- is randomly 'walking' through all books available interesting?
