My experience with Bookslake is the first I've done. When I couldn't find any book publishers to publish my book, I found a message from KDP Self Publishing and they transferred me to Bookslake. The first book I got published by Bookslake is "Emily and the Devil." I hope it becomes a best seller.
If u wanna get your book out there on the shelves, Bookslake is where u should go. So grateful to work with Anna. She has been so patient with me throughout the process and understood whatever I required. Definitely would recommend them to any of the already established or aspiring authors out there.
BooksLake is very professional in their work. They made my book cover very nice. I am very happy with their service.

Dear Regina, Thanks for your review. Client satisfaction is our number 1 priority.
The pros I worked with at Bookslake were wonderful! Not only did they edit my manuscript but turned it into a great-looking book with a fabulous cover! They were prompt in reading my ms, getting me proofs, and fixing my changes, all within my requested four-week deadline. It was a seamless, fun, and exciting process, and my book is getting loads of positive reviews. Thank you Nicholas, Ana, Ratchet and everyone else at Bookslake who worked on my book, "I'm Still Cringing: A Junior High Journal."

Dear Patricia, Thank you for your amazing feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you had such a smooth and enjoyable experience, and that your book turned out exactly as you envisioned. It’s especially rewarding to know it’s receiving such positive reviews. Wishing you continued success on your publishing journey!
What I can say is that if you want a positive experience and very quick results for your project, do not hesitate to contact and engage this company. I did, and was overwhelmingly surprised to find that my manuscript was handled efficiently at every step of the publishing project. I had Nicholas handle my project, and Anna is doing a very nice job handling PR for my book. I might add they are not that expensive and will work with your project as if it were their own.
