I don't really know what's wrong with that. That's one way to monetize this site and I think it's pretty harmless.

I find this site very useful to me, maybe not this one he linked, which really looks like book marketing, but idea of experts recommending books is useful

I'm always wary of undisclosed affiliate links. Sometimes it's monetization of genuine recommendations, sometimes it's just "I pulled a bunch of possibly-mediocre books related to a domain I can easily talk about so I can better monetize a blog post".
