Tastes differ!
I can't think of a reason not to recommend a book. A recommendation could lead to a new favorite book or author! =]
I recommend "Uzumaki" by Junji Ito. Because I know you'll like this scary book!
I would recommend Everything Everything by Nicola Yoon
I don't think I have never not recommended a book - as for why should recommend - you love a certain book so much that you just want to share it with the world.

I'd never not recommend a book I love, but I don't suggest recommending a book just because it's hyped or famous and you secretly didn't like it.
thank you so very much! :)
I tell people about books I love after reading them but I also respect the fact that we all have different taste and not everyone would like what I do.
If someone isn't interested in hearing about your book recommendations, I guess that would be the time to exercise caution. But if my friend does love to talk about books, I enjoy sharing recommendations. It's always important to be respectful of other peoples tastes and preferences though!
I tell people all the time when I have read a good book.
I like to recommend a book so I have someone to discuss the book with
People don't always have the same taste in everything, but I still will recommend a book and they can decide for themselves!!
If I know that someone has similar tastes then I'll gladly recommend a book. If they don't, then I won't!
I can't think of a reason. I love recommendations
I only recommend books freely when I know that the person shares the same likes and dislikes that I do.
I would not recommend a book if anything in it upsets me.
Thanks for the giveaway; some people don't like certain genres, so don't recommend a book from a genre they don't like. ;)
Thank's for the giveaway. I can't think why not to recommend a book. We all have different tastes, but that doesn't mean we won't try something new.
Even though everyone has different tastes in reading I find it hard not to suggest a title of a book I thought was a fabulous read. They don't have to read it but suggesting a title is just that, a suggestion.

I would not recommend a book if it had a hard limit that might someone uncomfortable.
If you love a book, recommend the heck out of it. If you like it, the same. If you hate it, but recognize its value, recommend it! I think you should always recommend books, and let people make their own opinions about it. Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean someone else would feel the same.
I can't think of a reason too why men do it.
You should not recommend a book to someone if you know the person does not like that genre or subject
I would NOT recommend a book, if I know the content in the book would upset that particular reader/friend.
Not everyone like and think same about one book :)
I recommend books only if I felt like they were worth my time.

I would not recommend a book if I didn't want to share my 'book boyfriend'. LOL!
Oh thats hard since what someone might love...someone else might not. I do always share the ones that I love...in hopes that someone else might love them too. However...If I do not like one...I usually keep quiet as someone else may love it!
Because then you will have too many bookaholics to rule the world.
I shouldn't recommend a book if you personally didn't read it or enjoy it. Books should get recommended from personal enjoyment that's being passed on, not just because.
I don't know why someone shouldn't recommend a book to anyone. It's always the reader's choice whether they want to read a book or not. If there are delicate topics or issues in the book, I would mention it. If it's geared towards a certain age group, again I'd mention it but it's still the person's choice whether to read it or not. :)
I think you should always recommend books, but only if you know the other person's tastes.
I can't think of why not to recommend a book.
I love giving and receiving recommendations. There are just too many good books out there I don't want to miss any of them. Many of my favorites came from other people's recommendations.
I don't think you should recommend a book if you haven't read it yourself
I think you shouldn't recommend a book when You've not read it yourself.. Seen it happen a few times.
I like book recommendations. If you like science fiction read Illuminae. If you like fantasy read Impyrium.
I don't think you can or should recommend a book & come off as a reputable commendation if you haven't read the book.
Well, I'm not sure if there's a real "should" (or "shouldn't") for me here. :) But I'm most likely to recommend a book if I love the author's works in general, and/or if I found the book to be really captivating & absorbing. Interesting question!
