How to Find Book Deals on Bookstagram

In the ever-expanding universe of social media, one platform stands out as a haven for book enthusiasts and bargain hunters alike – Bookstagram. This unique space within Instagram has captivating book reviews, artistic photos, and exclusive book deals and discounts. In this article, we will unravel the secrets, tips, and tricks for finding incredible book deals on Instagram.

 

What is Bookstagram?

Bookstagram isn’t just a hashtag; it’s a dedicated corner of the Instagram platform where book lovers unite to share fanart, bookish memes, aesthetic book photos, and book deals. It’s a unique space for readers to connect, discover, and celebrate their favorite books.

 

How to Search for Book Deals on Bookstagram

There are several approaches to finding fantastic book deals on Instagram:

Search by Hashtag

First, you can search by hashtag. When you open up the app, look towards the toolbar at the bottom of the screen for an icon that looks like a magnifying glass. Click it, then tap the search bar that appears at the top of the page. Then, type in things like #BookBargains, #BookDeals, and other similar searches. If you are looking specifically for ebooks, make sure to use hashtags like #eBookDeals! Hit enter, then look for the button that says “Filter” right above the posts. Set your filter to “Recent top posts,” to ensure you are getting deals that are still ongoing. Then you can scroll through and find all the best deals!

Follow Bookstagram Focused Accounts and Authors

Another method to use when looking for deals is to follow the Instagram pages of book lovers, authors, and other bookish brands. These kinds of accounts will often partner with other authors and publishers to promote books and other literary content and are often accompanied by discount codes and exclusive access to book deals. You can also find accounts specifically dedicated to rounding up the best book deals in certain genres or for specific kinds of eReaders.

Check Stories and Recent Reels

If you are searching for deals on various accounts, one of the best ways to make sure you are finding deals that are still ongoing is to look at the stories or recent reels from authors and publishers. They will frequently use these features to announce limited-time promotions and book giveaways, so checking these regularly while looking for books is a great way to ensure you snag the best deals before they expire.

Participate in Lending Communities

You can also explore the communities on Instagram dedicated to connecting readers for book lending – from physical copies to ebooks! In these communities, you would lend a book in your digital library to another user, and they would lend a book to you – this usually works best if you find a community dedicated to lending on your specific eReader, whether that’s a Kindle, a NOOK, or something else. While this may not technically be a way to find your own book deals, it is a great way to read new books for little to no additional cost!

 

Conclusion

By strategically navigating bookish accounts, hashtags, and engaging with these communities, you can fill your bookshelf with captivating reads without emptying your wallet. Happy book hunting!
