I felt like a queen for the entire 8 days of my tour, because they treated me and my book with THAT much care and consideration.

I have seen firsthand the success of their tours with book launch after book launch and would highly recommend them to anyone needing book promotion.”

J.M. Failde, Author of The Crow Lord"I will never stop singing praise to Book Tour Gals. This tour was probably the best decision I have made for my book and its marketing. Not only were all the gals incredibly sweet, supportive, and fun to work with, they also brought me an influx of readers and followers. It's been almost a month now and I'm still seeing results from it! New readers message me often that they found me through BTG, and I just cannot recommend them enough.
