If you answered yes, I can’t wait to share with you 10 Instagram accounts for book lovers (that you should be following in 2020)! The book lover community on Instagram is just BURSTING with amazing bookstagram accounts but I kept this to 10 of the best!
(this post was originally written in 2016 but updated for 2020)
I mean, I feel like I’d be remiss if I didn’t plug my own here. HI MY NAME IS JAMIE AND I HAVE AN INSTAGRAM IN ADDITION TO THIS BLOG AND WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO CHECK IT OUT.
Maybe you might like it? It’s not nearly as beautiful as the ones I’m going to feature sooo figured I’d start with that so it didn’t seem like a disappointment after all the droolworthy photos you’re going to see below. MANAGING EXPECTATIONS AND THINGS haha.
You can follow me @perpetualpageturner
Now on to the other top Instagram accounts for book lovers to follow:
Best Bookstagram Accounts To Follow In 2020 :
- @crimeofrhyme
This feed is just so dreamy and I love the ~theme~ she has going on. Plus it’s always making me hungry or having a desperate craving for a coffee! I love that she reads eclectically like I do. One of the most beautiful bookstagram accounts!
Rachel is a delight and always a joy when she pops up in my feed. Very cozy account that makes you want to just settle right in with a good book and coffee. One of the best instagram accounts for book recommendations!
Listen, Steph’s account is the most incredible sight to behold. Not only is she the sweetest but she pairs book recommendations with the MOST AMAZING PIES THAT SHE MAKES. One of the most incredible bookish Instagram accounts that every book lover should follow and definitely one of the most creative bookstagram accounts.
Lotte is a university student from Berlin whose account is just droolworthy. I love her eclectic reading taste and always find good recommendations from her whether it’s YA or adult fiction.
Carmen’s account is something special to behold! Seriously works of art. Bright, creative, stylish and she’s such a wonderful person that I’ve followed for years in the book community. She focuses mostly on YA and is a fierce champion of diversity and social activism.
Kayla’s account is newer but it’s already become a favorite for me in 2020 and I had to add it to my list! Her shots are gorgeous, her personality shines and I love her thoughtful posts.
One of my favorite fellow bookstagram mamas! It’s nice to talk motherhood and books with another mama who gets it! And her photos are gorgeous and airy! She read a variety of things but if you love romance, she has the BEST recs. One of my favorite book instagrams turned cherished friend and I love how she talks so openly and honestly about motherhood, body positivity and so many other things.
Her feed is so cozy and her recommendations are so good! One of my favorite bookstagram accounts for bibliophiles!
Jaime has wonderful book recommendations and I always love reading her thoughtful takes on books a variety of genres! One of the best literary instagram accounts!
Kerry is a delight — if you want a cozy space with someone who is the epitome of all things calm and soothing and HYGGE…her book account is one I highly recommend. I love her book recommendations and thoughtfulness in her reading life.
Jessica’s account is one of the most engaging! She’s your girl to follow for great book recommendations, social issues/activism, baking with her toddler and SHE SHARES GREAT DRINK RECIPES and some fun random things that make her personality just shine!
So tell me…are there any top bookstagram accounts you think, based on my favorites, that I should follow???

Denise says
Thank you for all these recommendations! I’ve had a Bookstagram account for over a year now, and I’m always looking for new accounts to follow. I love Rebecca’s account so much, especially! Her photos are so pretty, and feel so effortless. I love the way she edits them too. If ever I feel like I don’t want to read, I can always go onto her feed, and I instantly can’t wait to pick up my book again!
