Here you can see several scenerios where the Book Bot's different features are used.

Scenerio 1, Leonardo meets the Book Bot

 Leonardo likes books but he hates trying to decide which book to read next. One day while he walks down a street and he bumps into his old friend Raphael, who is an author right now. They have a small chit-chat and Leonardo complains about how he likes books but doesn't have the time to search for the right book. Raphael smiles and says, "Oh, my dear old friend... Do you not know about the amazing technology that solved this? The Book-a-Bot?" Leonardo is surprised but being a little bit lazy, he assumes that it is a lot of work to setup and use such a technology. Raphael comforts him, "Not hard at all! All you need to have is a Telegram account.". Leonardo pulls up his phone and opens up the Telegram app. He asks, "OK, how do I do it?" Raphael says "Just say that you are looking for a book!" "That's all?" "Don't worry it will guide you."

 Leonardo is very interested in fantasy books. He decides to ask the Book Bot for a fantasy book recommendation. He writes to the Book Bot, "Hi, can you recommend me a fantasy book?" The Book Bot answers "Hi Leonardo! I have found 1326 fantasy books. Do you want to add any more spesifications or do you want to see the results?" Leonardo remembers that Raphael used to write fantasy books and decides to search for his books; "Can you show me Raphael Smith's books please?". Book Bot answers "OK. I have found you 3 fantasy books, written by Raphael Smith. Do you want to add more spesifications or do you want to see the results?". Leonardo wants to read his lastest work so he says "Sort them by publish date, and show me the latest book." Book Bot gives links to Raphael's latest fantasy book and asks "There are 9 comments about this book. Do you want to see them?"
