35 Literature Memes & Book Tweets Every Bookworm Gets Instantly

Literature memes are for everyone who thinks "just one more chapter" means three more hours. This batch brings you 35 of the funniest book memes and book tweets for those with a deep, possibly worrying, relationship with their bookshelf. If you’d rather get lost in a novel than small talk at a party, these jokes will hit home. Bookworms, library lurkers, and paperback hoarders—welcome to your new happy place.

The best literature memes blend sharp wit with the struggles every reader knows. There are jokes about late library fines, the chaos of TBR (to-be-read) lists, and the heartbreak of finishing a series you love. Some book memes roast the pain of waiting for your favorite author’s next book. Others poke fun at the lengths we’ll go just to read in peace. You’ll spot plenty of book lover humor, literary jokes, and clever takes on classics that every English major secretly loves to hate.

Whether it’s Kindle addiction, hardcover snobbery, or just an unhealthy obsession with bookmarks, this gallery covers all the quirks.

If you’ve just finished the gallery of book tweets, you probably recognized yourself in more than a few gems. Maybe you thought about your growing stack of unread books, or laughed at the agony of misplacing your favorite bookmark again. The best literature memes made you remember all those times you’ve ignored texts, missed meals, or stayed up way too late with a plot twist you never saw coming. You’re not alone—every reader has a pile of "just in case" paperbacks and a soft spot for fictional drama.

Still craving more nerdy laughs after these book memes? Check out our movie memes for fresh story chaos, or try some general nerd memes for the rest of your geeky obsessions. Literature memes make it clear: the world can wait, but a good story—and a solid meme—always come first.

Happy reading and happy scrolling.
