Ten of My Favorite Bookish Websites

Posted August 13, 2018 by Jana in Top Ten Tuesday / 26 Comments

This week’s topic isn’t book-related, but it’s definitely bookish! I thought it would be fun to share our favorite book blogs and/or bookish websites (besides Goodreads because duh…) because I know I’d love to find some more blogs to add to my reader and great bookish resources to bookmark.

1. What Should I Read Next?
This fun website has you entire the title of a book you loved. The website analyzes your pick and then spits out the title of another book you’ll probably love, too.

2. BookBub
How would you like an email of free and discounted ebooks sent to you everyday? You even get to choose the genres you love.

3. Hoopla
Check out digital books, audibooks, and music with your library card (provided your library participates)!

4. Off the Shelf
If you love Top Ten Tuesday, you’ll love this place. Sooooo many bookish lists!

5. Omnivoracious
Amazon’s book review.

6. BookRiot
An awesome blog for bookish news, reviews, and merchandise.

7. Epic Reads
HarperTeen’s community and blog for young adult book lovers. They post some really fun stuf like infographics and book quizzes.

8. The Literary Gift Company
All the bookish things we need to own!

9. Hot Dudes Reading
Ok, it’s not a site… It’s an Instagram account. But I honestly think it should count in this situation.

10. The Literary Cat
It’s a Tumblr devoted to pictures of cats and books! What’s not to love?

What are some of your favorite bookish blogs and websites?

  1. OHMYGOSH!! Your list is amazing, Jana. I love that it’s made up of things I’m so unfamiliar with. Mine is pretty basic, but I still love the places/bloggers I mention. Needless to say I find your list really helpful because it looks to be filled with resources I might love. *goes to click on websites* :)

  2. I’ve only recently discovered BookRiot, oddly enough- well not really but I’ve only recently started remembering to GO there ha ha. And I always find something interesting. And Epic Reads too…

      Hehe. Right?!?!

      And thank you! I loved the pink, but the teal just works for me better. Too many book covers were clashing with the pink. Bwahaha.

  3. I also frequent Book Riot and Epic Reads. The rest I am not familiar with so thanks for putting this up. :)

    Also, it’s my first time to link up here in TTT! #AchievementUnlocked

  4. I keep forgetting about What Should I Read Next! That’s a great site so I’m bookmarking it. My library used to use both Hoopla and Overdrive, and now they moved all the ebook/audiobooks to Overdrive and Hoopla is just for movies. Love the hot men and cats, LOL!

  5. This is such a great list of websites! I love BookBub so much and look forward to receiving my email every day and seeing what’s on it. I’m pretty sure I buy probably a book a week thanks to that thing, which is sort of a double-edged sword? Goodreads has a deals thing similar to BookBub, too, only with more books on it. xD

    I’d never heard of the Literary Gift Company, but oh my gosh, so many cute things! There goes my morning …

  6. Thanks so much! I’m putting together my own list of bookish blogs to follow for inspiration – including yours of course. Something to keep me busy reading until I get my master’s :) What do you think 2025 trends will be like, I want to make a reading challenge but my TBR pile is so high I’m exhausted already and want some fresh stuff.

      Thank you for mentioning mine! That’s so kind of you. :)

      2025 trends… that’s a hard question! I’m assuming you mean book trends? So far, I’m seeing a lot of romantasy. There have been a lot of very popular romantasy releases over the last 10 years or so, and I only see that market continuing to boom with the current Fourth Wing series love. Cozy fantasies are also getting really popular, which I welcome wholeheartedly. Cozy and comforting reads in general, really. Witchy/supernatural/paranormal-centered contemporary romance has also been gaining a lot of steam lately. These are usually whimsical contemporaries set in our world, but with hidden twists of magic. Historical fiction is turning into more than just WW2, which is awesome, but now that the 1980s and 1990s are considered to be historical fiction I just feel old. LOL. Across all genres, I’m seeing a lot more diversity and inclusion, which is amazing!

      Thanks for stopping by!
