Each week, we’re committed to sharing our social media recommendations with you. Whether it’s a binge-worthy TV show, something that’ll soundtrack your day, or a page-turner we can’t put down, we’ve got the good stuff to guide you through your week.

Let us put you on!

To eat: M&S Cookies 

@touchdalight

they came out today and already sold out everywhere 😂 #marksandspencer #cookie #foodreview

♬ Club Penguin Pizza Parlor – Cozy Penguin

M&S has completely rewritten the bakery game when it comes to their cookie range. Their latest Chunky & Loaded cookies are hunks of heaven, filled with nuts, berries, chocolate chips, and more. Just the scent of these will have your mouth watering!

To smell: Lancôme Idôle

@lucywwilson

Sorry for the rant, I feel very strongly about this perfume😌😮‍💨 #perfume #perfumerecommendations #perfumetiktok #lancome #lancomeidole @Lancôme

Delicately balancing rose accord, jasmine absolute, and clean chypre, Lancôme’s Idôle is a soft take on modern femininity. The scent forms around its wearer, creating a unique experience for each individual user.

To listen: “Bitin’ List” by Tyler Childers

@timmytychildersmusic

“Bitin’ List” (Official Lyric Video) out now! *Controlled professional training shown. For the safety of the handlers and dogs, do not attempt without proper supervision & equipment.* Huge thank you to the dog trainers, Brian Hendricks, Chance Burroughs, Justen Haynes, Jamie Haynes, and Melanie Haynes, and their dogs, Adventure, Delta, Duncan, Electra, Willow, Mustang, and J.D. at HKL9 Kennels. HLK9 is a small, family-owned business specializing in puppy training, obedience & public service dogs located in Sparta,VA. For 20 years, Justen has competed in IGP — passing his passion on to his daughter Jamie. Together, they’ve won national championships… and now, Justen, Jamie & his dog Duncan have earned a place on the World Team! This September, they’ll represent Team USA at the FCI World Championship in Spain. “As a small business, we can’t do this alone. With the support of our community — near and far — we’re raising funds for airfare, travel, lodging & food. Every donation helps!” Learn more and donate at hausluck9.com/team-duncan-usa (link in bio) — Directed by Emma Delevante Produced by Noah Cordell Director of photography: Tyler Oaks Production Company: Maverick Creative Post Production: Andy Vinson Band Management: Ian Thornton #bitinlist #dogtraining #tylerchilders

♬ original sound – Tyler Childers

This upbeat country tune is doing the rounds on TikTok, and it’s easy to see why! A no-holds-barred take on how it feels to truly hate someone, Tyler Childers has created the perfect song for stomping through town, ruining lives.

To read: Say You Swear by Meagan Brandy

@sophsbookcorner_

Before, during & after > Say You Swear by Meagan Brandy 🏈💜 #beforeduringafter #bookrecs #romancebooks #bookreview #bookreaction #bookish #sayyouswear #sayyouswearmeaganbrandy @meaganbrandyauthor

♬ original sound – sophsbookcorner_

Readers beware: Meagan Brandy’s first novel in the Boys of Avix series will have you drowning in angst and wishing for more. This modern romance will draw you in on the first page, filled with yearning, scandal, and plenty of drama. 

Recommended by: Edyta

To watch: Aftersun

@scahoxz

Aftersun (2022) #aftersun #aftersunedit #paulmescal #aestheticedits #Viral #fyp #Edit #xyzcba

♬ Under Pressure – Remastered 2011 – Queen

This quiet, deeply human story featuring Paul Mescal shoots straight to the heart. Exploring the fading relationship between a daughter and her father, Aftersun touches on themes of nostalgia, love, and loss. All with one of the best soundtracks around.
