If you search for symbols

The results make no sense.

[
  {
    "item": {
      "title": "The Lost Symbol",
      "author": {
        "firstName": "Dan",
        "lastName": "Brown"
      }
    },
    "refIndex": 10
  },
  {
    "item": {
      "title": "Monster 1959",
      "author": {
        "firstName": "David",
        "lastName": "Maine"
      }
    },
    "refIndex": 22
  }
]

There is nothing matching for David or Monster. At best monster has 3 matching letters in a totally different order.

Can someone explain why Monster 1959 is a result for symbols but not for symbol?

As a newb: perhaps because symbols is a closer match: "__m_o_s" is somewhat close to "mons" in monster. Whereas symbol does not have that final "s" in position. You can lower "threshold" to 0.4 to limit more results to higher matches.
