All you have to do is give one or more recommendations based on the formula "If you like ____, try ___." The specifics are entirely up to you . You can give a recommendation based on an entire genre, an author, a title, a random subject, whatever! I am going to go with Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles, so if you like/love that book these are the books I recommend to you: 1. Pushing the Limits by Katie Mcgarry ~ Book 1 in the Pushing the limits series. 2. Dare you to by Katiee Mcgarry ~ Book nr 2 in the Pushing the limits series. 3. Crash into you by Katie Mcgarry ~ Book nr 3 in the Pushing the limits series. (My favorite out of the three that are out.) So those were my recommendations I hope you liked them and I hope you check them out.
