A random book generator selects titles from a curated list so readers, teachers, and book clubs can skip manual list-making. It is designed for recommendations and prompts—not as a bookstore or review aggregator replacement.
This Muxgen tool runs in your browser: set book-count (default 3), pick a Genre, toggle Allow duplicate books, generate, and copy. No account and no server upload for your picks.
Three simple steps from filters to copy-ready book lists.
Enter book-count (default 3), pick a Genre chip from 7 options including All and 6 themed groups.
Toggle Allow duplicate books for repeats up to 100, or turn it off for unique-only batches capped by the pool.
Click Generate book(s), review results, then Copy to clipboard for reading trackers, slides, or chat.
