Emily and Sarah ask Booktoker Ayushi to spill the tea about authors entering reviewer spaces and breaks down the etiquette of authors interacting with reviewers on social media. Ayushi is behind the wildly popular Bookwormbullet on Tiktok and our conversation delves into her experiences creating video content, what kind of work and time are involved in being a content creator on TikTok and navigating trends in the digital book community.

Ayushi breaks down what kind of trends have grown on TikTok and the rise of romance books vs fantasy on TikTok and what is drawing readers to certain videos. She digs into what makes a book go viral on TikTok, gives perspective on what an author can do to promote their book on TikTok, the power of tropes and strong emotions in an author’s book and how to make your social media presence stand out.

This interview is for anyone curious about the Booktok world, and who wants an insider’s scoop on the fast paced world of the TikTok book community.
