We have had the opportunity to work with some tremendous authors in the last year and we're so thrilled they've felt our work with them has been a success!
Kari and Corrine were a delight to work with – upbeat, organized, and always responsive! They made the promotion side of my book launch painless, and connected me with a wonderful network of book bloggers and supportive readers! I'm so glad they were able to help send 'family' off into the world – and the book blogosphere!

"Teen Book Scene invited me to participate in a blog tour to promote my debut novel, ASHFALL. Accepting was one of the best marketing decisions I made. They were super-well organized, which allowed me to do a whole month's worth of blog posts in advance. As an author, you definitely don't want to have to keep up with both a physical and blog tour at the same time. The posts I wrote for Teen Book Scene generated hundreds of comments and many thousands of views, which I'm confident made a big difference in ASHFALL's success. I hope they'll invite me to do another one when ASHEN WINTER launches in October of 2012!"

Teen Book Scene gave me a chance to connect with readers I would never have found on my own. Kari and Corinne and are so organized that they made the daunting challenge of a month long blog tour a breeze. I would recommend them to any writer hoping to expand their audience and better acquaint themselves with the YA community.

As a debut author and self-admitted technology newbie (Twitter aside), the world of real life bloggers was completely new to me and sort of scary-- everyone seems to know everyone and read a heck of a lot more than I do! But working with Kelsey who introduced me to Kari, Eleni, and Sandy was such fun that it made me completely comfortable. The interview questions were thoughtful and relevant to Tweet Heart and the guest blog topics were a total blast. Having them get the word out to other readers was amazing and I definitely saw spike in the interest after the blog tour went live. Thank you so much guys!! I hope we get to do this again soon!

The Teen Book Scene totally took care of everything on my online tour for Firelight. I can't imagine working with a more efficient group. Kari and the rest of the team accommodated my needs, tailoring it specifically for me, making it an easy and enjoyable experience that I know greatly helped me gain exposure for my book. I will work with them again and again and again -- as long as they want to host me!

Teen Book Scene made setting up a blog tour super easy and extremely painless! They were great to work with and very professional every step of the way. I would definitely do another tour with them.

I decided to do a book blog tour with much trepidation. To be honest, I wasn't quite sure in the beginning what a blog tour was. I didn't know how the whole thing was pulled together. Kari not only wrote up a fabulous interview for me, but helped me brainstorm and organize the entire blog tour. I wanted to do something more than just have a series of book reviews and Kari was full of great ideas. My blog tour ended up with interviews that each had a slightly different slant. There was also a video, a Mad Lib, and a Texas Trivia Challenge with secret answers sprinkled all through the various blogs. Kari created a page that linked all the blogs, wrote up a quiz for the Texas Trivia Challenge and basically organized the whole experience. The tour coincided with the release of TAKE ME THERE and sales were so strong the first two weeks that Simon Pulse did a second printing. Next time I get a book contract, the first thing I'm going to do is ask Kari to set up another blog tour. It was a fantastic experience!

Kari and The Teen Book Scene team wowed me from the start. They set up a fantastic blog tour for me, complete with author interviews, guest posts, and reviews. I felt like a virtual rock star. Definitely plan on booking future gigs with them.

At a time when I was overwhelmed preparing for the release of Freefall, Teen Book Scene swooped in and saved the day! They took care of the details and scheduled varied stops for me with a number of blog hosts. It was such a help and drastically reduced my stress levels. I recommend Teen Book Scene to any YA author who can use a little help in organization and in spreading the word about one's book to those who happen to passionate about books

I'm amazed by the enthusiasm and professionalism with which this tour came together. What an incredible service to offer authors (who need all the help we can get)! Teen Book Scene was great, the bloggers were great. And how wonderful to read comments that say, "I've been hearing so much about this book--now I have to read it." I am brimming with gratitude.

Three cheers to Kari and the amazing reviewers for The {Teen} Book Scene. I just finished a monthly blog tour for my novel Freefall (Greenwillow/HarperCollins). The reviewers were smart, intuitive and insightful. I loved the questions they asked me and their reviews were fantastic. Kari is so organized and efficient. I can't wait for my next book to come out so I can get on another one! Thanks to all of you.

Teen Book Scene knows how to throw a blog tour. They expertly set up the tour, so all I had to do was write the guest blogs and answer interview questions. It was great not to have to worry about getting things to the right person at the right time. Kelsey and the others at Teen Book Scene took care of all that. I appreciated their attention to detail, and I think the tour certainly helped get my novel exposure. Thanks to everyone involved.

When I met Kari, she was just one of many book reviewers, albeit quite talkative, which I loved! Quickly, however, Kari outpaced the others, offering more than her fair share of time to promote, organize, and flash-ify my books. She put together a wonderful, month-long book tour for me, notifying me of daily posts, reminding me to do my part when I found my brain melting in the chaos of positive feedback, and absolutely blowing my mind when it came to her personal dedication to the book trade. This girl literally rocks with socks, and is an invaluable asset to my team and literary future.

I highly recommend The Teen Book Scene for a book tour. I wasn't sure exactly what to expect but became pleasantly surprised at the organization and ease as Kari took my hand and led me through the process (even during NANOWRIMO). Kari coordinated with all the bloggers and did the legwork for me so I could concentrate on the interview questions and guest posts. Jessica updated the links after each posts on my book tour which made referencing so easy. The bloggers were timely and courteous with requests from me and in holding contests. I will definately being doing more tours with them. Thank you ladies and bloggers!

My blog tour with TeenBookScene was all I could hope for. I answered a few questions and Kari set up the rest. The whole thing was professional and fun. Can’t wait ‘til I have another novel out and we can do it again. Thank you to Teen Book Scene and your terrific group of bloggers for all you do for authors and introducing our work to so many readers.

I had a great time promoting my book NIGHT SCHOOL with a Teen Book Scene tour. Everything was so well organized--even a scatterbrained author on deadline could keep up! The bloggers were all enthusiastic and creative and I never had to answer the same interview question twice! It gave me an incredible opportunity to spread the word about my new book without having to do all the legwork myself. I would highly recommend any author with a new book schedule their own Teen Book Scene tour!

Thank you so much for running such an incredibly well organized and fun blog tour for Tell Me a Secret—I’m honestly still blown away that you would *volunteer* for something I spent two months on last spring, and that so many thoughtful and respected book bloggers would participate. You are amazing, generous, and all things wonderful.

Teen (Book) Scene did an awesome job with my two week blog tour. They were not only efficient and professional, but also very creative. They came up with great ideas for posts, and I got my interview questions early, giving me plenty of time to prepare. I would definitely recommend Teen (Book) Scene for any author wanting to do a fun and unique tour. If only I'd known about them before my book came out, my initial promo surge would have been a lot easier!

Book Scene does all the hard work of assembling a blog tour so that you
don’t have to. I was so impressed with the variety and professionalism I
encountered along the various blog tour spots. Their enthusiasm and
superior organizational skills truly makes Teen Book Scene and their
bloggers a joy to work with. I highly recommend them to authors
interested in doing a blog tour and I look forward to working with them
again. Thanks, Kari and Teen Book Scene!

Teen Book Scene was a lifesave when it came to getting the word out about my book. I am ordinarily very disorganized and busy with my deadlines, but all of that was taken care of by Kari, who did an amazing job coordinating the tour. It took all the worry out of my blog tour and everything went so smoothly! I would heartily recommend Teen Book Scene to any author.

Teen Book Scene is AMAZING! It is such a pleasure working with Kari and the rest of the crew for author's virtual tours. I'm an independent book publicist who promotes more than a dozen authors of any genre at a time. While I still reach out to bloggers on my own, Teen Book Scene is able to save me some time so I can tackle more projects and give the authors I work with the maximum exposure they deserve. The work Teen Book Scene does is beyond what I would have ever expected, and they are so efficient! I can't thank them enough for their help in getting buzz going online about the wonderful authors I represent and their new books.

The Teen {Book} Scene did a truly incredible job of running the blog tour for Rising Shadow. Jessica was helpful, organized, and highly professional as she set up the tour, coordinated the posts with the bloggers, and kept me up‐to‐date on the schedule. The bloggers did an outstanding job of coming up with creative and interesting topics for the interviews and guest posts, and they were top‐notch reviewers. It was a fantastic experience, and I can't wait to do another tour with them!

I loved doing a blog tour for WHERE I BELONG with Teen Book Scene. The questions and posts were so creative. I think I had almost as much fun writing them as I did writing WHERE I BELONG.
The Teen Book Scene women are incredibly professional and everything went incredibly smoothly. As a debut writer, a virtual book tour with such passionate YA lovers made my fairy tale story complete. I loved seeing the posts everyday and making contact with such wonderful book enthusiasts. I'd do it all again and I hope I'll have that opportunity.

As the author of a technology superhero series, you'd think I would know all about the this digital world we live in. Wrong! I just ask my kids for all the answers. Only, even my kids couldn't help me when it came to setting up a blog tour. When I discovered the Teen Book Scene, I was amazed! Kari and the rest of her team are fabulous. They truly choose bloggers who are a perfect fit for the type of book an author writes. The interviews, guest posts, top ten lists, etc, were so spot on. It made the whole experience a joy instead of a chore, and I've had many readers comment on what a fun tour it was to follow. I would highly recommend choosing these ladies. You won't find any other group more professional, savvy, and easy to communicate with. I truly couldn't have pulled this tour off without them.

Working with Teen Book Scene was my first time participating in a blog tour, and it was a blast! The young lady who coordinated the trip was very helpful, friendly, and fun to work with, as well the bloggers who hosted me. It was a good also to meet some new reviewers to work with in the future and helped open doors for future promotion of my work. I also thoroughly enjoyed writing the guest posts, character interviews, and other fun writings for the tour. Teen Book Scene has been a pleasure to work with; they made this new process simple and fun for me, and I plan to work with them again in the future.

The Teen Book Scene is where it's at. When they first approached me, I wasn't sure what to think. I was unfamiliar with them and therefore thought I might be taking a risk. But as it turned out, it was no risk at all. They were more than accommodating, and very responsive to any questions I had.
Their long list of bloggers is quite impressive, giving each and every title they review a very well-rounded assessment. I love their range of topics and the fact that these bloggers not only take their tours very seriously, but they are also well connected. I can't wait to visit again.

"You can't go wrong with Teen Book Scene's blog tour. Jessica was warm, enthusiastic, professional, flexible, and well-organized. The bloggers sent intelligent, thoughtful, unique questions and posted on time. Each blogger tweeted their post (so I made some new e-friends, too!) and did their best to support and promote my book. Since only those who *signed up* to blog about my book would be participating, I knew I would be assured at least a reader who was looking forward to the concept and idea of my story. This was especially important to me, as a South Asian author, because I knew the bloggers reading my book would be interested in learning about a different culture while escaping into a storyscape that might not be familiar. It was an absolutely delightful experience and I highly recommend this dedicated crew of bloggers and book lovers."

The Teen Book Scene is truly great to work with and has an impressive list of bloggers. Although our books skew slightly on the young side of teens--more like tween or middle grade, TBS was able to accommodate us. The interview questions have been thoughtful and the bloggers have been enthusiastic and well-organized. We feel lucky to have found Teen Book Scene, will work with them again, and highly recommend them!

I can't tell you what it means to have an extra pair of hands as a writer during a release week. Kari and The Teen Book Scene not only coordinated an amazing tour, but they were super patient and brilliantly efficient. It was a wonderful success from beginning to end, and I'd highly recommend The Teen Book Scene to any other author.

What impressed me most about the Teen Book Scene tour was the imagination of the bloggers I was paired with. Every interview was unique, and the ten lists and blog posts were challenging in a good way, especially Nicole's Character Tweets at Books Complete Me. I confess I had never tweeted before, but the experience was most satisfying and I must have done something right because, of all my guest posts, this was the one that got the most comments,
Many, many thanks to Kari for making my blog tour such a pleasurable experience and to all the bloggers that participated for having me.

Teen Book Scene hosted a blog tour for Chasing AllieCat the month after it was published. The Teen Book Scene Bloggers ROCK! Every single one brought a unique twist to looking at the novel. The reviews were fresh and honest, and the interviews were a blast. Having the main characters interviewed on various blogs reminded me why it’s so important for an author to know every character deeply. I felt like my characters, Sadie, Allie, and Joe made a bunch of new friends on their trek through blog country. I loved it (And so did they)! And--besides, we did a fund-raiser to buy bicycles for girls in India so they can go to school. The Blog Tour bought FOUR BICYCLES! Thanks, Teen Book Scene!

When Jessica and I set my tour with the Teen {Book} Scene reviewers, I realized I hadn't really completed my "platform"--for instance, my e-book version of my novel was not yet processed for the Smashwords Premium Catalog. With professionalism, honesty, and enthusiasm, TBS and the reviewers provided me with a series of reviews that allowed me to fill out my marketing platform with a credible spread of reviews for sales sites. I was also able to include "snippets" of the reviews to my novel's webpage, providing readers with a richer first experience of the novel. In addition to the marketing advantage, I also gained valuable insights into my novel and how I write as I completed the various writing assignments for the tour. Thank you all for eighteen "whistle stops" of fun on my virtual book tour!

By setting up a blog tour for my second YA novel, PLAYING HURT, I was able to have a new interview, guest post, or review up on a new site six days a week for a month, coinciding with the book's release. Because posts were completed ahead of time, I was also able to complete the revisions of another novel while Kari and her crew put up posts around the blogosphere! As a writer, publicity and time to write the next novel are absolute necessities—and Teen Book Scene allowed me to have both! I’ll definitely be back…

Jessica at Teen Book Scene did an amazing job setting up not just one but two simultaneous book tours for Candlemark & Gleam's two current YA titles, Broken and Hickey of the Beast. With very little notice, but very great skill, she organized two four-week tours that combined reviews with fascinating author interviews, character tweets, top-ten lists, and much more. All the different post types made this more than simply a book making the circuit of blogs – the more blogs you read, the more interesting tidbits you learned about both the books and the authors. Even as the publisher, I learned a lot about the books and their authors!
Working with Teen Book Scene couldn't have been easier or more enjoyable – everything was smoothly coordinated and incredibly professional, and I was immensely impressed with the end result. I can't wait to work with Teen Book Scene again when we have another YA book to promote! In fact, I wish they organized book tours for more than just YA – or that everyone was as wonderful to work with!

Teen Book Scene made my blog tour experience so easy and wonderful! Kelsey organized everything, and I didn't have to worry about a thing except answering the interview questions and writing up the blog posts, which were a blast. Having the exposure for Queen of the Dead on so many blogs has really helped spread the word. And it was fun! I highly recommend Teen Book Scene for blog touring, and I look forward to working with all of them again!

The Teen Book Scene book blog tour was an absolute blast! I feel so fortunate to have had an opportunity to work with Kari and, through her, get some great exposure and publicity for my book, Leverage, on a 13-stop blog tour that she organized. Kari did an excellent job lining up interested bloggers with large followings themselves, providing my book exposure to readers who would not have normally given Leverage a second glance. The blog post topics and questions were creative and funny and had me chuckling as I wrote out answers, sometimes in the voices of my characters. Kari was extremely enthusiastic about my book, easy to reach, and always great about answering any questions I had during the process. The entire tour was very well organized. If you are an author and have the opportunity to work with The Teen Book Scene to promote your book, jump on the opportunity!

THROUGH HER EYES was my first novel for teens, so I was venturing into new and confusing territory when it came to promoting the book. Kari at the Teen Book Scene took me by the hand and led me through the world of YA bloggers, and it was such a fun trip! She opened so many doors for me that I would not have known existed. And she planned and organized the entire tour, making everything so easy for me. The Teen Book Scene's help in getting the word out about my book has been invaluable. I hope to work with them again when it's time to promote my next novel!

Let me just say that I’d sooner face the Jabberwocky without a Vorpal Blade than do a book blog tour without The {Teen} Book Scene.The {Teen} Book Scene far exceeded my expectations. Kelsey taught me the basics, scheduled the tour, kept everything on schedule and followed up regularly. The blog post suggestions were unique, and the blogs themselves appealed to a wide variety of readers. And the best part – I immediately noticed an increase in traffic as soon as the blog tour started! 5 Stars for The {Teen} Book Scene.

The Teen Book Scene did a wonderful job putting together my blog tour for "The Chosen." I'm still getting used to doing publicity, and the girls took me by the hand and led me through everything that needed to be done to put the tour together, including a giveaway scavenger hunt, and get it done right. Thanks to them, my book got more publicity, and some good review, too. I thank each and every one of them for all of their hard work. I would love to do another tour with them!

I was lucky enough to have Teen Book Scene in my corner during the release of POSSESS. It was one of the most professional blog tours I've ever experienced! TBS is organized and totally on top of their affiliated bloggers. The blogs were innovative and original, more than your average Q&A interviews, and I had such a blast doing them. I noticed an exponential boost in traffic to my website, and I firmly believe TBS turned up the "buzz" on my book. They rock!

My book tour was a huge success thanks to Teen Book Scene. They sent me the interview questions so early that I had months to work on them, avoiding a mad scramble at the end. Kari held my hand the whole way through, reminding me of outstanding posts, communicating with the host bloggers, and making sure that the schedule wasn’t repetitive. I could never have done such a comprehensive tour without them, and ended up really enjoying something that could have been an arduous task. Many thanks to their highly professional team!

Thanks to Teen Book Scene for an amazing blog tour for my debut, OyMG. I had no idea what to expect and was amazed how well Kari and Jessica organized it all. (How is this not a full-time job?) The interviews were all different and way more fun than anything I would have come up with. And in the end, I got wonderful exposure for my book on a variety of excellent blogs--what more could I ask for? Which is why I recommend Teen Book Scene to other YA authors, and why I'll be doing a tour with them for my next book, if they'll have me! :-)

When Kari first contacted me about doing a blog tour for my debut novel, I was excited, but also wondered what the catch was. It seemed too good to be true that someone I didn't even know was volunteering to help me promote FROST! Well, a couple weeks after the conclusion of the tour, I can say with certainty that there was no catch! Kari set a series of varied and interesing posts, and all I had to do was supply the content. She took care of everything, even when glitches arose, in enthisuastic, friendly, and professional manner.

Kari’s an organizational whiz and makes sure you receive everything you need from the various blog stops in plenty of time.

Kari was so professional in coordinating everything, getting questions to me several weeks early so I had time to work on them, then managing the logistics of returning them to the bloggers so I didn’t have to keep track of what was going where. Huge thanks to Kari, all the bloggers and admins of TBS – you guys are awesome!

I am so thrilled that my first
ever book tour was with Teen Book Scene! As a self published author, getting
the word out about my book is challenging, but Teen Book Scene was so much fun
to work with. I was nervous about doing a book tour. Really I was afraid they
would want to interview me! I'm really not that exciting, but I could talk all
day about the characters in That Boy. Teen Book Scene let me do just that. The
interviews with the characters let readers get a glimpse of the character's
personalities and for those that had already read the book, gave them more
swooning time with Danny and Phillip until the next book comes out! I can't be
happier with the professionalism and the promotion I received. My October book
sales were triple the previous month. I think that says it all! Thanks again
ladies and all the bloggers that participated!

Kari from The Teen Book Scene coordinated my tour and I have to say I couldn’t be happier. She was professional, prompt and took care of every last detail so all I had to do was enjoy the ride! She organized a four week tour and sent me a variety of posts: guest posts on books I loved, character interviews, author interviews, and this/that preference lists—all of them were clever, fun and revealed different aspects of my book and/or its characters. Thanks so much to Kari, Corrine, and everyone at Teen Book Scene—I highly recommend this as a worthwhile experience for any author looking for a little more online exposure.

I'm so happy to have gotten the opportunity to work with them to help spread the word about my debut novel, and I would do it again in a heartbeat!

A wonderful resource that eliminates the overwhelming prospect of organizing a blog tour.They handled the what, when and where, so I could focus on the interviews and guest blogs. I can't wait to work with them again!
