A Cork bookshop owner says TikTok's "booktokkers" are helping to boost book sales and revive the popularity of some books

BookTokkers recommend books in online videos and it is having a hugely positive impact on book sales

BookTok has gained such a momentum in recent times that TikTok launched its first book awards in the UK and Ireland last year

Joan O'Leary Of Vibes and Scribes outlined to RedFM News what books are getting special attention

"Books in particular that young women are reading so it's young adult, fantasy, romance. But then some of the classics have also been revived "The Secret History" by Donna Tartt which was published in 1991 and while it wasn't a classic, it was a bit of a"who dunnit" and that came to someone's notice, they reviewed it and reviewed it and it just went viral"
