    In this episode of Chapter One and Beyond, I dive into how I use AI Assistants to get custom book recommendations. I'm sick and tired of the same old recommendations so I'm putting a spin on it! Whether you’re craving thrillers, horror, sci fi, fantasy, or something weirdly specific, this AI tool has not only helped me but I hope it will help you with some new favorite ways to build a TBR. I’ll share prompts, tips, and books I found through ChatGPT, Gemini and DeepSeek!
