One other possibility is that the OP is reccing things all the time, and her friend is feeling fatigued and/or exasperated.

I have a buddy (not a fandom buddy) who is continually telling me to read this book or that. He has tons of spare time and adores reading. I'm sure many of his recs are worth checking out, but I just don't have time to weed through them all to find out which ones might appeal to me too. (Plus there's the pressure factor - he keeps asking me if I've tried them - and that makes me begin to feel actively averse...)

On the other hand, if I get a single rec from my friend who recommends books only once in a while, I'm much likelier to try that out because it's a much easier undertaking, and also there's no actual pressure to read.

I thought this might be what was happening the moment I read "I've been reccing you that for months". The more someone insists I read something, the less inclined I feel, because I start to associate it with that pressure...
