As a book nerd to the highest degree, there are few things that give me more pleasure than cracking open a brand-new thriller. And the best place to find new titles? Instagram, believe it or not. While I know that there's debatably more to life than a good book, sometimes you just want to forget about all your worldly problems and get lost between the pages.

When I'm having an especially bad day or just want to take a break to check out new books for the 2020 POPSUGAR Reading Challenge, there are a handful of eye-catching — not to mention super-informative — Instagram accounts out there dedicated solely to books! Scroll ahead to see some of our favorite book nerds you're going to want to follow ASAP.
