When I was younger it was always ream to become a professionally r. I wanted my entire day job to be reading books, thinking critically about what was good, what was bad, and what I would change, and then sharing my thoughts with other people. I really expected this to be a full-time job.

I’ve separated these into four different categories of ways to make money from reading books: social media, jobs, review sites, and

Unfortunately, there’s no book-reading degree. You can’t get a nine-to-five job as a professional book reader. (At least not yet.) But it is possible to make money by reading books online and offline. I’ve got 18 ways listed right here. Some of these are pretty typical, and some of these are a little more unconventional, but all of these will result in you earning money from reading books.

Make Money Reading Books for Social Media

One of the most standard and fun ways to make money by reading books is to create a social media profile where you gain a reputation for reading books, having interesting thoughts, and influencing others to read or not read particularly

All you need to get started is a way to post. You don’t even need to buy books at first — use a library card or a Hoopla account to read books for free.

1. Post your video thoughts on BookTok (and BookTube, and Bookstagram

Then, start reviewing This requires a bit of thought — how can you make your videos stand out? How can you gain a reputation as a thoughtful, trustworthy Influencer

After that, join the creator fund whenever you’re eligible. In 2021, Cait Jacobs went on the record to state that TikTok’s creator fund only nets you 2 to 4 cents per 1,000 views, so you’d need between 25,000 to 50,000 views to earn just a dollar.

Create the video once, then cross-post it on all three video channels to get the most bang for your buck. It may take some time, but you can earn money by reading books this way.

2. Write your review on a blog to earn money by reading books.

What better way to make money by reading than penning an homage to the book with the written word? Blogs are a great way to make money by reading books. It’s a less demanding schedule than video content, so you can post once or twice a week as you read and review books, and slowly gain an audience that way.

Whack ads on that bad boy and you’re good to go. It may take a while to start gaining traction, but if you truly love books, you’re reading them anyway, just post your reviews on your own website instead of (or in addition to) Goodreads.

3. Post about books on Medium.

Medium has a royalty payment scheme. The way it works is when a paying Medium member reads your post, you earn a small portion of their monthly membership fee. More views more money.This is a really great way to do it because it’s simple. You don’t need to do any SEO to get money from ad views. You don’t even need to host your own website. Just post your thoughts, get 100 followers, and start making money by reading books and posting your thoughts.

4. Podcast it, baby

Podcasts work similarly to BookTok or Bookstagram to make money by reading books, except instead of recording both voice and face, it’s just your voice.Right now, most podcasts don’t earn money through anything by ads, but if your podcast grows bigger, you can leverage your audience to get Patreon support, sell bonus content, or get some kind of exclusive deal with a podcasting company.

5. Translate books.

Know more than one Language Amazing news — you can get paid to read books in English, Spanish, or any other language and translating them. I love reading books in Spanish, German, and English, so I’m very grateful to the translators who help share works in other languages with me.Alternatively, you can also proofread books in another language. Places like Flex Jobs, Fiverr, Upwork, Babelcube, and Ulta are good places to look for these kinds of jobs.

This can be a career or just a gig, depending on your passion for the job.
