>>12974067
If you want a more extended answer: Mein Kampf is an often boring, often repetitious piece of poorly written agitprop which holds little value beyond its historical significance. The most interesting parts were his accounts of NatSoc ideology, but these can be found better explained in the papers of someone like Alfred Rosenberg, and his accounts of propaganda and oration which are actually quite insightful. However, this comprises a bare fraction of the book, with the rest being a plodding self-aggrandizement of himself and the party, and agitation against marxists to stir up his base. There is no reason that it should be 600+ pages.

>>12975621
It can give you good recommendations but you have to excercise some judgement in picking through what it spits out at you. as >>12975652 says, you can make bookshelves and get recommendations based on them, so you can select the pool from which the AI does its work. All that said, you will run into diminishing returns the more you read as it tends to promote the same books over and over again, as the pool seems quite limited.
Trawling the "people also read" or scrolling down into the ratings/reviews and looking through other peoples accounts is also a good way of finding more books on a given topic to read. Every so often you'll hit upon a massive autist in a given subject and their profile is a veritable treasure-trove of recommendations.
