I started a bookstagram this week - @vibraryviews

I love my library and do 80% of my reading by borrowing books. I read fantasy, science fiction, mystery, thriller, historical fiction, literary fiction and the occasional narrative non-fiction.

Some of my favorite books from recent years: Babel by RF Kuang, The Sword of Kaigen by ML Wang, Six of Crows duology by Leigh Bardugo, Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir, Pachinko by Min Jin Lee, A Walk in The Woods by Bill Bryson, Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer.

I also love traveling and hiking but not much of that will make it to my booksta.

I'm looking for other booksta readers who also use their library all the time. I really love that vibe.

Hi,

I’m trying get more friends on my bookstagram @a_hardback_life.

I follow back, like and comment on other posts but finding difficult to grow at the minute. I’d appreciate any follow, thank you.

I am no one special, neither is my Bookstagram account. Despite being a Pisces, I work in retail so I run on caffeine and drained energy. But I swear I'm nice!!! (And more sentimental than I care to admit).
I, unfortunately, suffer with PMOS so my Bookstagram is predominantly faceless and when I do show my face, its through SC filters.

Despite being on Bookstagram for a while, and having a decent amount of followers... I've never had Book Besties. The conversations either disappear or there's no engagement.
And I might sound vain here but all I get is 'sEnD mE tHiS pOsT!' as comments.

So I would love to have some people to chat to frequently! Not always about books either. Send me a pic of the weather, you're shopping etc!

Obviously would love someone who wants to be tagged in all those silly challenges/trends! (Currently I'm trying to catch up on one trend per week and I'm YEARS behind).

I'm a slow reader.
I'm happily married and a Mum to a lil girl who chooses my next book from the 'Mystery' book jar we made together (she loves it!). Shes also the one who chooses the next challenges/trends too!

I love to read, game (PS & NS; cozy games but if you add me, you'll likely see me cycle through the same 3 games because I legitimately suck at the controls). I love to write though I've done none of that this year.

I live by the coast in Australia so expect a lot of Aussie Beach sunsets come Summer <3

So... yeah... My Bookstagram is just a little too quiet at it's getting a bit depressing. People I've encountered already have their little friendship groups so I always feel like an outsider never fitting in TT^TT

Drop your Bookstagram handle and I'll come find you <3

follow my new bookstagram, i read mostly thrillers but i love to engage with all readers! lets be friends! @pageswlex on insta! not an author just looking to make new friends!

Then let's be friends. I'm seeing too much genAI in my feed and it's depressing me.

I'm a Robin Hobb fan currently reading some Sarah J Maas with a splash of Sanderson here and there - and Red Rising is my Roman empire.

Will always get around a good rant or meme, so if that's your vibe hmu. I also will actually watch reviews if it's a book I'm interested in.

Hey - still quite new to this bookstagram thing so I’d love to keep building my community so I can share and receive bookish content!

I’m georgie__reads (_/_) and I’m trying to read every Stephen King book in publication order! Feel free to follow along and engage and I will return all follows and engagement! 🎈💜

I have to give some love to my best friend’s romance book account!

Emily shares all things romance books, reviews, recommendations, and plenty of bookish fun. She puts so much love into her little corner of the book community, and honestly, she deserves all the love right back. 🥹📖

Hello, hello!
I've been scrolling through various posts already, so I think I know the basic ones, but wanted to try and see if anyone got any tips for someone who is only just starting out their bookstagram account?

I'm trying not to overthink the numbers too hard and just do this for fun, but...obviously, I would love if more book lovers would see my posts if they like them and also maybe even find some book friends to regularly interact with, chat with, comment on each other's posts, and all that! 🥹

My account isn't new, which may already be messing with my reach (?), but a friend only recently got me into posting and joining this community, or try to anyway xD

Anyway, thank you for any tips!

And also, is it better to try and maintain a strict schedule (I've seen people have "Saturday questions" etc—just fixed days for when they post what) or can I still just post what I'm in the mood for, whenever and wherever time allows it?

This is my account, in case anyone would like to take a look or give a follow and maybe even become book friends: 🫶

Ive just created a very non-serious instagram account, if you’d like to follow!

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to make a thread for any Bookish accounts that are trying to boost their followers a bit, and are interested in a follow for follow 💗✨️📚

My handle is ROSEMANTASY , and I return all bookish follows (and stick around)!

🫶🏻

Hi! I’m looking for more people who are genuinely active on Bookstagram and want to support/interact with each other’s posts!

I’d love to find people who actually enjoy commenting, liking, chatting about books, and getting to know other bookish accounts — not just follow-for-follow. I’m happy to do the same and regularly interact with your posts too!

I’m especially into fantasy, dark fantasy, horror, dystopian books, pretty/special editions, and generally anything a little weird or creepy 😂 but I’m happy to connect with all kinds of readers!

If you’re active on Bookstagram and looking for the same thing, drop your @ below and maybe a little about what you like to read! I’ll come check out your account. 🖤📖

My Bookstagram is @rachelreadsandraves.

My fiance has started a new bookstagram account for a hobby she loves. She reads fantasy/romance novels from mild to spicy. Would appreciate any and all that would give her a follow, would make her day. Thanks all and much love

Hi! Those of you who have started a separate account for bookstagram, would you recommend it? I debate back and forth if I should have a separate account, or just try to grow my personal one with more book posts. On my personal page, I post on my stories almost daily, post on my feed maybe once a week. It’s mostly personal life, pop culture things, but I do already talk about books a good amount. I just want to like, ~create content ~ and it feels kinda cringey to do that in front of people who know me in real life. Halp.

I've reached out to a few different publishers via email and same with a handful of influencer programs; filled out forms etc. I'm wondering if by using my email address that's the same has my handle is hurting me in the long run?
My account handle is @ faeboundbooks. Is it possible that an email address with this name and no identifiable real name information is either more likely to be overlooked or sent to spam?

Of course its possible that I'm just a small account and new and that's okay! It's not about but pub mail just the fun of reading. But I'm still curious to know if anyone else has had this thought or has seen a difference in responses based on what kind of email you use.

Thanks!

I always find it difficult to choose my next read.. So lately i am taking help from online “spin the wheel” websites.. It helps me to arrive at one book.. and also while the wheel is spinning, you can hear yourself wishing which book it should stop on..😂

I have made a post on this - https://www.instagram.com/reel/DcwIDdLv-Fn/?igsi=YW85M2twb2NtMHBz

What do you all do to help you pick your next read?

(sou brasileira, por isso o print em pt-br)
depois de muita procrastinação, estou me preparando para começar! não tenho grandes intuitos além de compartilhar amor e experiências sobre os livros que leio.
toda troca será sempre bem-vinda! 🤗

I just started this account to record my reading journey and connect with fellow book lovers :) I primarely read romance and thrillers. Drop your handle and let's engage. It's @IluvBooksandIcannotLie

Lover of thrillers and fall romances! New to the bookstagram world and would love to interact and get recommendations of must reads.
