NEW YEAR, BOOK CLUB APP📲✨

Happy first Sunday of the year! 🥂 Let’s be real-we’re actually finishing that TBR pile in 2026. 📚✨

PHICTLY just got a major logic upgrade to help you stop hoarding books and start actually enjoying them. Here’s what’s new:

Rate & Review ⭐ - No more "vibes only." Give your books the clinical autopsy (or the standing ovation) they deserve.

Visible Logs 👀- Main character energy! Show off your reading progress and keep yourself accountable. If it’s not logged, did it even happen?

Featured Section 👀✨- Coming soon! Get ready to see the best of the best curated just for you.

New year, new logic. Let’s get those pages turning! 🚀

A woman holds a stack of six popular BookTok books, including 'Powerless' and 'Divine Rivals', against a world map background. The image is overlaid with text 'my thoughts on BOOKTOK'S FAVORITES' and decorative yellow outlines and flowers.
The book 'Powerless' by Lauren Roberts is shown with a 3-star rating. The review describes it as young adult romantasy, but not true enemies-to-lovers, finding the romance underwhelming. It recommends against reading it.
The book covers for 'One Dark Window' and 'Two Twisted Crowns' by Rachel Gillig are displayed with 4 and 4.5 stars respectively. The review praises the gothic fantasy series' atmosphere and magic system, recommending it.
are these booktok books worth it??
Everyone and their mother has gotten questionable book recommendations from tiktok. I wanted to give my honest opinions about some of the books i see all the time on booktok, and let you know if they’re worth reading! And yes, i was influenced to read every single one from booktok creators 🤠
