Introduction to Next Book

Next Book is designed as a specialized book advisory tool, aimed at enhancing the reading experience by providing tailored book recommendations. Its core functionality revolves around analyzing a user's current or last read, through image recognition of the book cover, to suggest subsequent reads that align with the user's preferences. By examining an extensive database, Next Book offers insights into books by the same author, or within the same theme, setting, and characters, maintaining a chronological order of publication. For instance, if a user uploads an image of 'Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban', Next Book will recommend earlier and later books in the Harry Potter series, followed by similar magical fantasy books.
