Tell Me Something Tuesday: To Tour or Not to Tour

To Tour or Not to Tour? Do you participate in book tours? Why or why not?

I do really enjoy being part of tours. They are a fun way to connect and learn more about a book and authors. I find them even more fun when it is a good book that is totally overlooked or new. The only issue is when the book is…well…not that good. I try to be very selective when joining a tour so I can avoid the awkward email to the publisher or organizer. I don’t want to be that reviewer who hated the book. Ekkk that is a nightmare for me. 

If I am iffy about the book or I know I do not have time, I’ll still try and join and just post an excerpt or interview or something. I love independent books and I love to give them some time to shine! It keeps the industry alive. 

So yes, I love to join tours, but I can be picky.
