Goodreads Summary:

Humans of New York meets Porn for Women in this collection of candid photos, clever captions, and hilarious hashtags about one of the most important subjects of our time: hot dudes reading.

Based on the viral Instagram account of the same name, Hot Dudes Reading takes its readers on a ride through all five boroughs of New York City, with each section covering a different subway line. Using their expert photography skills (covert iPhone shots) and journalistic ethics (#NoKindles), the authors capture the most beautiful bibliophiles in all of New York—and take a few detours to interview some of the most popular hot dudes from the early days of the Instagram account.

Fun, irreverent, and wittily-observed, this book is tailor-made for book lovers in search of their own happy endings—and those who just want to get lost between the covers for a while.

 

Review

That title. HOT DUDES READING. How does one resist? Well, I couldn't ;) When I found out about its existence, I knew I couldn't miss out. I already followed the Instagram account so why not read the book? This proved to be a good decision.

 

Like the book mentions at the beginning, when you spend a lot of time on public transit, it's hard not to look around. I don't know about you but I love to people-watch- observing others is actually quite fun. It's even better when they're gorgeous guys who like to read. The people behind Hot Dudes Reading really captures them. This book is hilarious, ridiculous and all around fun. What better way to admire hot dudes reading than through these pages?

 

There are witty, if not a bit cheesy captions to each reading hot dude. In addition to these captions, there's always a hashtag or two at the end of each picture. They are laugh-out-loud hilarious. They make clever, sometimes nerdy, references that are sure to make you smile if not burst into laughter.

 

I'm not familiar with the New York subway lines at all but from the intro before each section and some of the writings in this book, you get a sense of what to expect on each line. From the suit and tie gents to the mellow laid-back studs, you get an idea of where you're headed.

 

If you're an Instagram user and are not already following @hotdudesreading, what are you waiting for? If you already are a follower then good for you but now go pick up this book. Seriously, just do it. #EyeCandy #GreatLifeChoice
