all proceeds from #HFCWSY book sales this week (9/18 - 9/24) will be donated to the @americanlibraryassociation to fight against #bannedbooks. why? because diversity in voices and in ideas matters. because an individual has the right to choose what they want to read. because so-called “controversial” subjects are exactly the ideas that help children learn to think for themselves. because every child deserves to see themselves in the pages of a book. books defined my childhood and still do — and why should anyone try to limit that effect for someone else? my favorite banned books include titles like: 🌟 “Nineteen Minutes” by @jodipicoult 🌟 “1984” by George Orwell 🌟 “The Handmaid’s Tale” by @therealmargaretatwood 🌟 “Looking for Alaska” by @johngreenwritesbooks 🌟 “The Kite Runner” by @khosseini and others on my TBR include “The Color Purple” (Alice Walker), “Beloved” (Toni Morrison), and “I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings” (Maya Angelou). share your favorite banned books in the comments and visit my website to purchase a copy of HFCWSY (from any retailer!) to help donate towards this important cause ✨ • • • • • • • • #bannedbooksweek #uniteagainstbookbans #powerofbooks #weneeddiversebooks #weneeddiverseauthors #diversitymatters #diversebooks #diverseauthors #diversevoices #powerofwords #freedomtoread #supportauthors #powerofspeech https://www.instagram.com/p/CiuzulJuKJk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

From BookTok to Bookshelf: How a TikTok Ban Spells Trouble for Readers and Publishers Everywhere
Tumblr media
The indie book publishing industry has been steadily growing in recent years, with a significant impact on the literary landscape. According to industry reports, the annual revenue of the indie book publishing sector surpassed $2 billion in the most recent fiscal year.
This remarkable figure underscores the increasing influence and viability of independent publishers in the competitive market.
Indie publishers often champion diverse voices and niche genres that may not receive as much attention from larger publishing houses, contributing to a vibrant and inclusive literary ecosystem. As such, understanding how a potential TikTok ban could affect this dynamic industry is crucial for assessing its broader implications for readers, authors, and publishers alike.
But hold up, because this ban could have some serious ripple effects, especially in an unexpected corner—the global book publishing industry.
Let's break it down. TikTok isn't just about dances and memes anymore. It's become a powerhouse for book recommendations and literary discussions.
You've got bookish creators with millions of followers, sharing their favorite reads and sparking conversations that lead to actual book sales. Take BookTok, for instance—a vibrant community where readers share their love for everything from fantasy epics to romance novels.
Now, imagine if all that vanished overnight. Poof! No more BookTok. No more viral book recommendations reaching millions of potential readers. Suddenly, authors and publishers are left scrambling to find new ways to connect with audiences.
TikTok's unique format and algorithm have proven to be particularly effective in boosting book sales for authors compared to other social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Goodreads. Unlike traditional platforms where users primarily engage with static images or lengthy posts, TikTok's short-form video format allows for quick, engaging content that captures users' attention in mere seconds.
This makes it easier for authors to showcase their personalities, share book recommendations, and connect with readers on a more personal level.
Additionally, TikTok's algorithm is designed to promote content based on user interests rather than follower count, giving even lesser-known authors a chance to reach a wider audience.
As a result, books recommended on TikTok often experience a rapid increase in sales, outperforming promotions on other platforms where content can easily get lost in the noise. The viral nature of TikTok further amplifies the reach of book recommendations, creating a snowball effect that can lead to exponential growth in sales and visibility for authors.
But it's not just about losing a platform for promotion. TikTok has been a game-changer for discovering diverse voices and niche genres. Think about the surge in interest in poetry, thanks to poets sharing their work in short, captivating videos. Without TikTok, these voices risk being drowned out in a sea of mainstream content.
And let's talk numbers for a sec. TikTok has over 100 million monthly active users in the U.S. alone. That's a massive pool of potential readers. If even a fraction of those users were influenced by BookTok to buy just one book a month, you're looking at a significant boost for the publishing industry.
But with a ban looming, publishers might need to rethink their marketing strategies. They'll have to pivot away from TikTok and find new ways to engage with readers. Maybe they'll invest more in other social media platforms or explore partnerships with influencers on different platforms. Either way, it's going to shake things up.
One notable example is Abigail Hing Wen, the author of "Loveboat, Taipei." Her novel gained significant traction on BookTok, leading to increased sales and visibility.
Tumblr media
"Loveboat, Taipei" is a young adult novel that follows the story of Ever Wong, who is sent to Taiwan to study Mandarin for the summer but ends up experiencing love, adventure, and self-discovery. The book resonated strongly with BookTok users, who praised its diverse characters, engaging plot, and exploration of identity and culture.
As BookTok users shared their enthusiasm for "Loveboat, Taipei" through videos and recommendations, the novel gained momentum within the platform's community. This surge in interest translated into increased sales and recognition for Abigail Hing Wen, propelling her book onto bestseller lists and garnering widespread acclaim.
Abigail Hing Wen's experience serves as a real-life example of how BookTok can significantly impact an author's career, leading to greater visibility, book sales, and ultimately, success in the publishing industry.
While a TikTok ban may initially seem like a routine political decision, its ramifications extend far beyond mere community-building activities. In fact, its effects could potentially reshape the landscape of book discovery, sharing, and celebration on a global scale.

In August, Sistah Scifi shared a post that answers "What to read if you haven't read Octavia E Butler?" as an infographic created by a Room of Ones Own Books @roomofonesownbooks. Readers loved the quirky, fan based book recommendations for those new to Butler. We asked Sistah Scifi Siblings what author would they like Sistah Scifi to create a graphic for next. The winner was NK Jemisin (and Nalo Hopkinson. We are still working on that one). Do you think we understood the assignment?!? The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms 🪐Into gods that will love you from the inside out? Meet Nahadoth! The Killing Moon 🪐The darker your skin, the more noble your family. 'nuf said. The Fifth Season 🪐Wondering what happens at the end of the world? This series is for you. How Long 'til Black Future Month? 🪐For lovers of Black Speculative Fiction buffets Publisher - @orbitbooks_us Far Sector 🪐If you like your superheros with a side of Janelle Monáe.
