Bookstagram Questions
Does your instagram have a theme?
Hmm..I guess I have a warm theme going on.
Do you just write reviews or do you do other posts too?
I do both!
How do you find inspiration for your photos?
Sometimes from the book, sometimes from Pinterest, Instagram too
How long does it take to create a photo and upload it?
It can take 10 mins or half an hour to create; then there’s editing which can take 5 mins(I think) and I need to spend 15 mins(feels like forever) thinking of a caption. When all that is done, I click publish…of course, if insta is being glitchy, then the post might take hours to go up!
Where do you share your bookstagram posts?
Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest. I also have an Instagram widget on my blog
What is your favourite thing about bookstagram?
I think that it’s a brilliant space for book lovers to share their book photos and opinions. It’s also a great place to discover bookish businesses and vice-versa. Of course, bookstagram has also given a major advantage to the book publishing industry(that also comes with its negatives). .
