Question

Where do I pull data from for my project?

Additional context

I am trying to make a program that pulls the all the romance books from openlibrary and puts the information into a google spreadsheet. It has columns for Title, author, year published, cover image url, genres/tags, and cover image colors hex code.
In order to get actual romance books, I did stipulate that it had to have other certain tags. My problem is that I can only pull the same five books. I'm wondering if there's a certain place that I need to pull from that I'm not using. I tried using the API first, then I downloaded the complete dump, and still have to figure out how to use that.
