Drop everything you're doing and open Instagram right now. Oh, wait, you're already scrolling through the 'gram? Abandon those blogger pics of ice cream cones and macarons and navigate immediately to @hotdudesreading.

The feed is exactly what it sounds like: Picture after picture of attractive men reading books. As New Yorkers—or anyone who's ever been on a subway—know, a man flipping through the pages of a novel on his morning commute is a rare sight indeed. It's not that guys aren't smart enough to read books, it's just that men on trains seem to be more apt to listen to obnoxious rap or EDM music turned so high that commuters above ground can hear.

Thus, Hot Dudes Reading was created. It's an ode to those who are sexy and book smart, or sexy because they're book smart. Give the new account a follow and you'll be treated to things like a perfectly-coiffed guy finishing 100 Days of Solitude, or a beanied gentleman knee deep in Not That Kind of Girl. It's worth at leat 30 seconds of your time, because no one ever regretted checking out cute bros, amirite?

Even better, you can start stalking down your very own hot dudes—the account takes submissions (by email or Insta-tag). But, they do have one slightly picky requirement: no Kindles. They're looking for the old-fashioned kind of man.

Hot Dudes Reading. It might not be the Instagram account we deserve, but it's the one we need right now.
