About Us

We are Em and Julia, two twin teens who have bonded over many things, including our love for reading! Julia writes the blog alone, and both Em and Julia work on the bookstagram (Em physically takes pictures and helps with set-up, and Julia edits, posts, and helps with set-up).

Julia (Blog & Bookstagram)

Julia is very excited about the blog, and loves to work on it. Like Em, she likes to read, especially realistic fiction, historical fiction, and poetry. Her favorite book is The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt. She also enjoys learning, blogging, and being outdoors.

Em (Bookstagram Only)

Em started to really love to read a couple of years ago. She loves young adult novels and biographies. Besides reading, she likes playing the flute, procrastinating, mac 'n cheese, and photography. Em's favorite book is Made You Up by Francesca Zappia. Her favorite color is orange, and my favorite number is 529. Em is great at taking pictures, and is thus the main photographer for Reading is Inevitable.

[Julia's Note: Em is very sweet and kind. She is a great friend, and I'm lucky to have her, not just because of her amazing photography skills, of course! She is so much funnier and outgoing than I'll ever be, and I believe that I admire her for that.]

This Month's Popular Posts

Quotes: The Nightingale

I realized that, over a year ago, I wrote a post called "Quotes: Audacity" , and that this post did really well (it's actually Reading is Inevitable's most read post!), and yet I never wrote another post of quotes from a book. I liked writing that post, too. I like sharing quotes I like from books. That's why I started doing it on our bookstagram page . So why did I never write another one of these "quote blog posts"? I don't know. But I intend to write at least another one. And that's why I'm here today. Well, there's that, and then there's also the amazing book that is The Nightingale. If you've read some of my recent blog posts or have poked around a bit, you would know that exactly a month ago I published my book review on The Nightingale , in which I explained my love for it and why you should read it yourself. And while I actually have another post in the works on that book because it definitely deserves more than on...

Book Review: On Writing

Title: On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft Author: Stephen King Genre: Nonfiction Rating: 4/5 Reviewer: Julia Personally, I've never read any of Stephen King's fiction works, titles such as The Shining or Carrie . However, I am a fan of writing and am interested in writing little stories myself, so I thought, "Hey! Reading a book on writing by a bestselling author might just be a good idea." I was actually motivated to fulfill this notion of mine by the amazing Brittany of @bookbarrreview on Instagram, who said to me, "If you like writing, or you're just interested in how stories are created, it's definitely worth a read!" --Brittany, Book Barre Review Blog and @bookbarreview (Instagram) On that great description courtesy of Brittany, let's get this review started!

5 Activities to do on a Reading Break

You can't read forever. Even I, an experienced reader, get aching eyes after reading for even an hour. If you are like me and sometimes end up reading for several hours, you may find yourself not feeling too well. Of course, you could be like my co-blogger, Em, who surprises me by not appearing to be bothered at all by reading for several hours. And if you are not affected, that is great, but I have always preferred not to finish a book in a single sitting. If you too get tired eyes or like to have a break, then be glad, for this post is completely dedicated to activities to do on these breaks!

Blog Update - 03.17.17

As some of your probably know already, it was our one year anniversary for our bookstagram and blog this past Sunday! It’s amazing to think that in one year we were able to literally start from nothing to where we are now: 1,500+ followers on Instagram and more than 3,000 pageviews to the blog. We seriously can’t thank you all enough. While our bookstagram certainly has done well, I think I owe an apology to you, our blog readers. I really haven’t kept up with the blog. Heck, my last blog post was back in January. That really isn’t good or fair for your guys. I think I want to change that.
