About

BookTok BikeTok Controversy refers to a TikTok trend where the "BookTok" and the BikeTok subcultures began to make videos about each other as far back as September 2023. In November 2023, the trend became embroiled in controversy after thousands of BookTokers flooded the comments of a 16-year-old bike enthusiast, with many of them giving him reading suggestions that were inappropriate for his age. The BookTok-BikeTok crossover then came to be discussed on X, with many people admonishing BookTokers for only reading smut, and for preying on unknowing minors.

Origin

The earliest known BookTok-BikeTok crossover video was posted on September 3rd, 2023, with TikToker[1] @mimosasandmetaphors gathering over 50,000 views and 11,000 likes on a post showing a masked biker reading trendy BookTok novels (seen below, left). On September 13th, TikToker[2] @tintedblue_ posted a "thirst-trap" pandering to BookTok, gathering over 79,000 plays and 14,000 likes in three months (seen below, right).
