These Instagram pics will make you want to run to your nearest book store right away

There's always space for a new book in one's shelf, after all.

Books do different things to different people. To some the smell of new books makes their day a lot brighter, while to others a quote in the book sends tingles down their spine. Some become iconic while others get lost in obscurity, but rarely would you find a human being to whom a book does nothing.

The bookworms among us could spend days together with frequent cups of coffee and a book and could label days of the sort as the best days of their life. Those of you into both Instagram and books would know of the several hashtags related to books that do the rounds. Don’t the photos and aesthetics in some of those accounts and their posts make you crave for new books or make you wish you could take a day off to re-arrange your book shelf? Well, that’s exactly the kind of sentiment we are looking to produce inside of you as well.

While bringing the smell of new books to you via technology is a distant dream right now, these Instagram photos could give you serious ‘Bookworm Goals’, if there’s anything of the sort.

From ‘Harry Potter’ to ‘The Martian’, this one’s got it all. Bonus: The redheads atop the books!

A not-so-organized stack of books sitting next to a half-filled glass, now isn’t that the kind of room our mothers walk into every time the house is left to us?

With a book and delicious food in the same frame, this one’s put us into some serious dilemma.

No book list of any sort is complete with Jane Austen and didn’t we all love Colin Firth as Darcy in Pride and Prejudice?

 

“I always deserve the best treatment because I never put up with any other.” Jane Austen, Emma ___ In case anyone was wondering how out of control my Jane Austen collections are becoming, I’ve had to limit myself to one Jane Austen themed post per week. _

Even books are going green now. Inspired yet human beings?

Day 17 of #fanaticalbirdmarch is green books. It turns out I don’t have many green books and the top one might actually be blue _ but it’s close enough. #books #bookporn #booklove #bookstagram #bookstack #bookpile #greenbooks #stpaddysday #irish #marchphotochallenge #matched #gracelingseries

World Book Day is around the corner and this very pretty photo is here to greet you in advance.

 

Happy WorldBookDay. . Have you done anything fun today? I just rearranged my shelves which is always lots of fun xD . Also, I just discovered this great campaign that helps out refugees. Backed by Sabaa Tahir and Ally Condie (among others), I feel like you should check out #read4refugees, the idea is to stay in to read, and instead donate thw money you would have spent on a night out. All for a good cause. Check it out over at @gojanegive . #Bookstagram #books #yabooks #bibliophile #booklover #booknerd #bookjunkie #bookaholic #bookworm #bookblog #bookishaddict #readersofinstagram #read #bookstagramfeature #yalit #youngadultbooks #bookdragon #bookreviewer #bookphotography #yareads

I must must must start reading some of these, just for fun books! Good news- I can see the sky, I’d forgotten it’s beautiful pallor and height, with the low ceiling the dove gray rainy sky demands.

On an ending note, here’s some book-shelf inspiration.

 

It’s almost the weekend and next week we’re going to start shipping the March boxes off – woo hoo! Just a reminder that they will start shipping around March 23rd due to the book’s publication date. I’m so excited for you guys to see what we’ve put together for you this month! After a busy day of meetings at London Book Fair yesterday, we’re feeling super inspired and are busy plotting and planning upcoming boxes. We’ve got some really unique and useful items planned for you guys in the coming months – it’s going to be a great year! _ _ gorgeous photo by @bookdaydreamer
