Is this a grammatical error?
1. I get bored while reading the economic section in a newspaper. - Do I need to replace the 'in a newspaper' with 'of a newspaper'.
I believe both are correct in their own context.
2. but he has a credits section at the end of many of his chapters, along with a chapter dedicated to his recommendation of books from other authors. - Is it 'recommendation of books' or 'recommendations of books'.
Thank you in advance for the time and help.

It would be "recommendation of books" if it is one recommendation listing several books. It would be "recommendations of books" if it is several separate recommendations (a separate one for each book).
