48 Hr Books Reviews 10

My experience with 48 Hour Books was absolutely amazing. From start to finish, their team was kind, patient, professional, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process of publishing my first children’s book.

As a first-time author, I had a lot of questions and needed guidance along the way, and they took the time to walk me through everything I needed to do. They made the process feel manageable instead of overwhelming, and their customer service was truly outstanding.

What stood out the most was how responsive, supportive, and encouraging they were during every step of the process. It genuinely felt like they cared about helping me succeed and making sure my book turned out the way I envisioned it.

I would recommend 48 Hour Books a thousand times over to any author looking for quality work and exceptional customer service.

First off, I want to start by saying I have used this company a few times with no problems. Now I make an order, and it does not come out how it should, and they tell me they are using a new INKJET printer. I ask if it can be fixed, and they tell me it has been posted on their website for months that they are switching printers and customers should have seen it on the site. Well, if I don't go on the site for a few months how would I see it? Not even an email was sent to notify customers of the change. I feel like as a company it would not take much to fix this error, but they will not budge. I also wanted to order more books from them again, but I will have to find another company instead. They have a very poor business model, and I am disappointed in a company I would normally refer to others.

Their printing of text pages and binding is fine. Printing of images is poor. Communication is deceitful and if you complain you'll be met with condescension.

Do not choose this company, they added 50 more pages to my journal. Which I printed at UPS just fine. They said that my page 5 needed 1 more page, and that simply isn't true. Then I tried to cancel my order the next day, and they said they wouldn't give me back my $100 it was non-refundable. Sounds like a SCAM to me. Also, they say they are quick printers. Note: it's after they get you to approve the PDF print which also takes more time. Find a more reputable and honest company than this one.

We could not be more pleased with 48 Hour Books. High-end production values and strong, beyond-the-call-of-duty support from the knowledgeable prepress staff. Alysia was especially helpful. We will be repeat customers, for sure.

They printed several hundred books for me in small quantities as I made revisions and spread them around for input from friends. 48hr books people are not supportive or communicative. They made a huge error on my last cover and would not reprint the order. They do not pay attention to what they are doing. They are about speed and sequencing through their processes to get them out the door in 48 hours.

I've been making books with 48 Hour Books for nearly a decade now. Their customer service is always thorough and excellent. They have a very quick turnaround time, and their prices can't be beat.

I hate to write this about 48hr Books--their customer service is truly exceptional, as is the quality of the printing-- but seeing that the hard-cover copies that I had ordered were glue-bound was a let down. I wish that they had told me that they didn't offer stitch-bound. I feel as if I have partially wasted my money.

As a first-time author, the terrain of publishing can seem like a labyrinth, each turn filled with uncertainty. Yet, the team at 48hour Books, particularly Alex, has been a beacon of guidance. The immediacy of their customer service has been nothing short of miraculous, meeting my countless inquiries not just with efficiency, but with genuine support and understanding.

The artisans at 48hour Books excel not only in their craft but also in their remarkable spirit of helpfulness. In a world overrun by haste, they demonstrate that quality need not be the casualty of swiftness. Their commitment is akin to a skilled sower—every step from the first interaction to the final product is executed with utmost care and precision. Much like a tree is known by its fruit, the quality of their books— in paper, binding, and print clarity—announces their unparalleled dedication.

For those embarking on the journey of sharing words, 48hour Books is a sanctuary where opportunity and skill coalesce, where the promise of today unfurls into the cherished keepsakes of tomorrow. Thank you, Alex, and the entire team, for making my first voyage into authorship not just successful, but profoundly enriching.

seemed a bit expensive but was a choice well made to use them
