Yes I did get sucked into another side of TikTok, this one is called “Booktok”. The reason I got sucked in is because I must admit that I love reading, and I’ve gone through phases where I will read a bunch of books and then stop for a while. Basically, I love a good book every now and then, and Booktok has convinced me to get back into reading.
On the plus side, I get to do something I enjoy and read really interesting stories, but the best part is I get to go to Barnes and Noble more often! YAY! I have an unhealthy obsession with Barnes and Noble and I could literally spend time there hours upon hours.
If you’re reading this and thinking “I don’t like reading nor do I have the time for it” I hope that you find books out there to choose from. How can you choose just one to read at a time; the options are endless!
I have followed many creators on TikTok who have beautiful bookshelves and make content based on their book recommendations, and from there I have created a list of books to read after finals are over. I usually get my books from my local library or Barnes and Noble, but a recent TikTok I’ve seen of girls going to brunch and second-hand book shopping might convince me to check out thrift stores as well.
Plus, if you enjoy watching movies, there is a good chance there was a book version first, such as: “The Perks of Being a Wallflower”, “Little Women”, or “The Maze Runner.” Other than that, I hope you consider reading and check out some of the creators on BookTok and you get sucked into it the way I did.
