Raw Data

As part of a larger thing I'm thinking about, I plugged the words "historical fiction" into Amazon. The number one result? Read on... Historical Fiction: Reading Lists for Every Taste.

I suppose it makes sense that a reading list would show up first -- what else is likely to have "historical fiction" in the title? But I still find it interesting that you'd nead a reading list to figure out what historical fiction is out there.

Two other things. One, "Customers who bought this item also bought:"
The Husband by Dean Koontz
Water for Elephants: A Novel, by Sara Gruen
The Hard Way (Jack Reacher Novels), by Lee Child
Read On ... Horror Fiction (Read On Series), by June Michele Pulliam.

And people who viewed this item also bought:
Katherine, by Anya Seton (93% of them!)
A Catch of Consequence, by Diana Norman, and
Sophie's Diary: A Historical Fiction, by Dora Musielak

Follow up on this later.
