15 Instagram Accounts To Inspire Summer Vacation Reading
Summer is in full swing, and it’s time to read a fascinating book. And we will simplify the matter of choice for you. We have collected 15 accounts in which you can not only spy on which book to take up in the near future, but also plunge into the literary world filled with colorful illustrations, deep stories and thoughts of writers who are left behind.
Choosing a book is a responsible business, especially when it is for the soul. In @russian_bookworm you can find brief annotations on the works of classical and modern literature, and the author’s recommendations will inspire even those who find it difficult to sit down for a book.
In addition to worthwhile reviews on @biblio_teka, look for books on familiar covers. The author of the account is fond of modern design and arranges books in such a way that I want to read almost everything, from timeless classics to screened bestsellers.
The author @best_from_books has collected the brightest quotes and excerpts from famous works of world literature. Now instead of colored bookmarks in a book, there are bookmarks on Instagram, which you can constantly return to.
All jokes aside, this is an account of the Reading Cats Club. If you are crazy about cats and have read yourself more than once, lying with your pet in an embrace, you will not be able to pass by. When browsing photos of adorable pussies against the background of bestsellers, do not forget to spy on the titles of the books! Limit concentration is clearly needed here =)
Dogs are also not averse to getting acquainted with the literary heritage. In this account cats are banned, look here only for cute dogs surrounded by books.
Uli Better Cohen is an ordinary New Yorker who rides the subway every day.

Reading is fashionable! The New York Public Library account recently launched the #ReadingIsLit campaign, joined by actresses Reese Witherspoon, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Maisie Williams (Game of Thrones’ Arya), as they talked about what they planned to read this summer.

Wherever the author of this account is – on the street, in the library or on a trip, subway or train – the book is always with him. Sitting in his favorite position and opening a page of a brand new story, the guy can only interrupt in a photo, under which he will surely tell the subscribers which story captured his attention this time.
