Book Display Ideas - Celebrity Book Suggestions

People love book suggestions from celebrities. Former President Barack Obama puts out an annual list of his favorite movies, books, and music. Michelle Obama has also mentioned books she enjoyed. There are certainly plenty of successful book clubs attached to celebrities. An Instagram account called Celeb Book Recs collects book suggestions from a variety of celebrities as does the account Book Recommendations from Celebs.

If you see a popular celebrity recommend a book, take note. When you have enough, it makes for a great book display or list. Just watch for diverse authors and titles that are not bestsellers. Also, no one needs to be introduced to classics like The Great Gatsby or The Old Man and The Sea through your book displays. 

I have included a few lists below that can help get you started. Harness the power of celebrity to help move your backlist!
