Just moved house and first thing I had to set up was my new bookshelves.

Im obsessed with how theyve turned out. The rest of my trimmed down book collection is in storage for the time being so plenty to keep me busy this summer. by @matthew_gregory1998

Just started watching the off campus series on amazon prime and loving it.

Reminded me I need to get back into this universe that I adore. Read the first 3 and all great books.

My question is how do the briar u books link in as I know the other two are next gen I believe. Regardless ill read anything elle Kennedy writes and cant wait to read the next few books. by @matthew_gregory1998

Picked up two leigh bardugo books last week but cannot make sense of the universe and the order im meant to read them in.

Fully expect to have to buy more books but if someone could please explain the series these books are in and the correct series order to understand the universe. by @matthew_gregory1998

Discovered this whilst watching reels and may change how we all look at algorithm and maybe end the algorithm curse forever.

If you click the three dots at the bottom of the reel under the share and like buttons it gives you these options. If you click see algorithm it shows you what and why its showing you.

You can then train your algorithm with adding and deleting interests. Helped me connect a lot more with people recently and see a lot more posts id like. by @matthew_gregory1998

Sat on the decision of what to rate this book and landed on 4 stars.

Firstly this book is fantastic the world, characters and the imagery it creates is great better than any book ive read bar acotar.

However this book fell down slightly on its pacing. As others said it didn't need to be 1000 pages. 600 to 700 would've been fine and it led me to feel like I was reading the same kind of scene over and over again.

The ending as well was also a slight let down as I did not see what had changed in the story that meant it was in a position to end that it wasn't 300 pages before.

To anyone debating reading this book read it purely for the imagery and characters but be prepared it does become a bit of a slog near the end. I'd love to know if my views match up to you all as well by @matthew_gregory1998

After spending most of 2025 rereading the harry potter series can't believe ive finished the last book. Love the series and the way it transports you. Itll always have a place in my heart.

Moving onto another fantasy series that I'm hopeful will come somewhere near the impact harry potter had on me, the throne of glass series. Decided to start with assassin's blade as more people thought this offered the better reading experience.

QOTD - what book are you reading this weekend? by @matthew_gregory1998

First 5 🌟 book of 2026.

We used to live here follows a lesbian couple who move into an isolated house but soon a man who used to live their plus his family arrive one night asking to look round. Soon strange and spooky events start to happen to the owners but is it them, the family or the house.

This brilliant book by @marcus_kliewer has facets in all types of thriller/horror from psychological to paranormal. This book will leave you wondering which way to turn with each twist with the final one ending the book on a fantastic note that will leave you asking questions of the book and yourself.

Will certainly be picking up this authors next book later this year and all others they publish. Cannot recommend this book enough. by @matthew_gregory1998
