BookX is a community of X (formerly Twitter) users who discuss books, share recommendations, and engage in literary conversations. The community includes casual readers and literary critics, who often use the hashtag #BookX to organize discussions, highlight new releases, and participate in reading challenges. For example, a BookX user may review a novel, debate a theme with others, or even interact with authors.
The term emerged in the early 2020s as part of the broader trend of social media book communities, where users connect over shared reading interests. It follows the naming convention of other social-based communities, such as BookTok on TikTok, Bookstagram on Instagram, and BookTube on YouTube. And for all the Twitter users who refuse to acknowledge the "X" name, you can use BookTwt.
