Is it acceptable to post a "someone else recommended this book, but I did not find it compelling because of these reasons" on the current thread instead of the thread on which the recommendation was originally made?
My personal preference would be to keep the discussion in the original thread with the original recommender; but perhaps include a link to one's reply here. (eg '- I read Bar; it was the best book ever and I'm now founding a business based on it\n- I also read Foo but I didn't enjoy it nearly as much as $RECOMMENDER did; see [my reply] to them for reasons why not.')
