It’s 2025, and the new year is the perfect time to reignite your passion for reading, especially as the cold, snowy weather may be pushing you to curl up on a comfy chair, snuggle under a warm blanket with a steamy cup of tea, and get cozy with a good book.

Only problem is, you don’t have anything to read. You don’t remember the last time you had time to start a book, let alone finish one. You love reading but there are too many books coming out too fast, how do you know which one is worth your time? With so many apps and people and work responsibilities vying for our attention, how does anyone find the motivation to read anything just for fun?

If you’re sick of scrolling on social media and you’d rather be turning the pages of a good book, don’t put your phone down just yet. You can find both the motivation you need to start a reading habit and your next favorite novel all in one place: on Bookstagram, Instagram pages dedicated to spreading a love of books and reading.

Whether you’re into romance, horror, non-fiction, graphic novels, or totally unsure, these Bookstagrammers have the reading recs for you.
