Dear All,
Thank you so much for your continued support, help and hard work you have all put into GGBook Tours. Whether you are an author we’ve toured with, a blogger who has been part of a tour or just someone who has RT’d our tweets – we are so thankful.
Unfortunately, we are finding that even with four of us working on tours, there is far too much work to do. Due to the fact we are free and charge nothing for our services, we are inundated with requests and as more people find out about us, it is becoming increasingly difficult to keep up with it all.
As all bloggers say time and time again, we do what we do because we love it – not because we get paid. None of us have made a single penny through blogging or through running book tours so everything we do, we do off of our own backs and in our own free time.
As each of us grows up, makes major life changes and our lives develop, we start to find less time to invest in hobbies. With children to look after, husbands to spend time with, jobs to start and volunteering to do, we are finding it harder to keep the work/life/free time balance totally healthy.
Sometimes replying to emails can take up to three hours in the evenings and planning a blog tour can be incredibly time consuming too.
For the above reasons, we are going to be taking a break from GGBookTours for the foreseeable future. We are dedicated to completing all tours we have already signed up and fulfilling our commitments to authors and bloggers alike, but after the final tour is complete, we will be taking a break. During this time we will be working out how we can make the process easier, slicker and less stressful for all involved and will possibly look to starting up tours again towards the end of the year, and into 2015.
We hope you all understand and we are sorry to have to temporarily shut down what appears to be a popular service but we hope we can open again in the future and offer an even better service.
Thank you once again,
Laura, Kirsty, Victoria and Megan xxx

Why Gosling?
Being four young (ish) women, we have much love for the male species and especially Mr Gosling. We have called ourselves the Gosling Girls for a very long time so when we finally decided to set up this little tour company we thought we'd pay a tribute to our main man. Please don't worry about The Gosling. If you are not a fan of his face and do not want him to be on your blog tour posters or banners then that is fine. We are also happy to go by the name of GGBookTours so we can be as discrete about The Gosling as possible if you want to have the most professional and slick looking tour. All you have to do is ask :)
