Reading is one of the oldest past-times known to man – besides foraging for food and going to war, of course. We’ve been writing down stories and passing them around since written language developed, devouring tales of our ancestors and fictitious creatures alike. Nowadays, there’s whole stores – tons of them – dedicated just to books of all genres. Here are some page-turning book Instagram captions for the book-lover in all of us. If you are a bookstagrammer looking for reading Instagram captions…read on!

Curling up in a comfy chair with a good book sounds great for good reason. Reading is a great stress reliever, helping us relax in the middle of the day or at night as we tuck into bed. It can also increase your ability to empathize – so if you’re trying to be a little nicer this year, picking up a book might be a great step toward that.
Personally, I find both to be true. Taking an hour or two to decompress in my reading corner can turn my mood all the way around. Plus, it takes a little more brain power than scrolling on your phone – which sometimes leaves me feeling more down than before. There are so many great books for women in their 20s and beyond!
In the 21st century, if you didn’t share what you did on social media, did it even happen? Whether you want to show off your cozy book nook, or join a community of book reviewers to share your latest reads, I created a list of captions so good they’ll rival your favourite book. Just kidding! But maybe they’ll at least inspire you to crack one open.
