I love the idea of introducing serendipity. A bold idea: reach out to Amazon: 1. Kindle users have marked numerous snippets for their favorite books, and the snippets marked by most users can be better than your own selection. 2. A link to the books on Amazon can be good to both the user and to you (affiliate program?), that could be your business model maybe.

Interesting, I might give that a try.

Some Kindle highlights are publicly available on

https://kindle.amazon.com/

...but that site feels abandoned and is hit-or-miss for most books.
