Spines Reviews 637

Spines is the best publishing company I have ever worked with! My editor always answered my E-mails quickly, working with my requests, offering me straightforward answers and waiting patiently for me when I needed to modify/re-write some of the chapters. Spines took care of everything, from proofreading to cover design, making the whole process smoother than I expected. All the people I’ve worked with on this project are true professionals. All in all, publishing with Spines has been the best decision I’ve made for my book!

Spines are a dirty company who steals your money from book sales.i signed up for my books to be sold on Amazon only ,but my books r being sold on multiple websites......to the future authors please please please don't trust spines they r scammers,they steal your money u have no access to nothing at all,go to another agency please I'm warning u.imma be quiet because what I say will be used against me but they r so shady.. please don't do any business with spines I'm warning u now......please don't .n don't matter what response they may say to this,it's just to cover up all the lies they have been doin to hard working authors,it's not fair ,but they shall be sued someday ..don't trust these scammers,they r fake,as fake as can be .....

Working with the Spines team has been an outstanding experience from start to finish. What made the entire publishing process so smooth was the dedication and professionalism of Ela Nazari and Maria Noseda, whose consistent communication, expert feedback, and guidance kept the editing process flowing seamlessly. Their support made the journey not only easy but truly enjoyable.

I’m thrilled to see my project finally published and now moving into the audio production phase. The advances in AI voice technology are simply amazing—it’s incredible to hear my words come to life!

A heartfelt thank you to Samuel Ochoa, who helped secure my second project with Spines—the Spanish translation of my book.

Exceptional teamwork and excellence all around. Great job, Spines team!

Spines made the publishing process smooth and easy! I’m excited to see it live on Amazon and to work with them on future projects. Thanks Wardah!

A heartfelt thank-you to José Uzcátegui and Pablo from Spines

Publishing my first book, Ory the Owl’s First Adventure in NYC, has been an incredible experience — and I owe much of that to José, my account manager. From the very first message, his kindness, patience, and professionalism made me feel that my project truly mattered. He guided me through every step, even when the process became challenging, always communicating with honesty and care.

I also want to thank Pablo, the designer responsible for the final editing and layout, who helped refine the book’s presentation beautifully.

I’m deeply grateful to José, Pablo, and the entire Spines team for their dedication, support, and genuine enthusiasm. Seeing my book live on Amazon is a dream come true — and they helped make it happen.

Thank you, Spines, for believing in authors and treating every project as something special.

BEWARE OF THE DECEITFUL SALES PRACTICE !
1. was explicit about wanting
illustrations inside my book Diego asked me if it was a children’s book I said it was YA fantasy which includes children at the age of 10 -18 . He directed me to their dashboard where I you would set up your password and sign-on. I read where it said to place *** asterisks in a line underneath where you wanted an illustration. They set me up with an account manager who told me I don’t get any illustrations in my book. 😡I said you need to get that fixed because I specifically said I wanted it . They never called me back .
2. I was told I would have an editor to proofread my book. That was deceiving, i’m forced to do my own editing on their dashboard.
3. The AI generated book cover lacks quality. The edit feature ignores the book content and ignores what you specifically ask for. My book is a fantasy/realism book it has no castles anywhere in my book. The AI generated content kept giving me castles even when I said specifically said No castles . Then it put in little children I have no mention of little children in my book . When i asked for tree house it gave me fancy houses in a tree. I was supposed to have the option of an artist .
3. I was told that they would have me featured on a bill board in Times Square but after I paid there was no mention of that anywhere.
4. I asked for the 100% no hassle free cancellation under the 7 day money back guarantee . When I cancelled they said it would take a few days? But wouldn’t tell me how long! That’s a hassle, they received my money instantly. I want my refunded 100% paid back instantly. I need to find another publisher ! This was a bad experience that had me crying!

BEWARE! Do NOT waste your time and money here. Their AI is incapable of creating a quality product. Their customer service is non-existent. And when you go to cancel their surprise subscription requirement), they inform you that they own all the content (audiobook, ebook, etc.) they created for you except the book that you originally provided to them. Spines Suuuuuuuuuucks!

Exceptional Publishing Experience — Thank You, Natalia!

From start to finish, my publishing journey with this company was nothing short of phenomenal. I had the absolute pleasure of working with Natalia, whose professionalism, patience, and dedication made this entire process seamless. Her customer service was impeccable — she was always reachable, proactive in communication, and handled every detail with care.

Whenever an issue arose, Natalia called me personally to ensure everything stayed on track. She made sure my book was produced and released on time, and the quality exceeded my expectations in every way. It’s rare to find someone who combines technical expertise with genuine care, but Natalia did just that.

I can honestly say I couldn’t have done it without her. I am beyond happy with my published book, and I owe much of that satisfaction to Natalia’s commitment to excellence. If you’re looking for a publishing partner who truly values your work and treats your project like their own — this is the company to trust.

Thank you again, Natalia — you are an absolute gem!

Spines has made the process of publishing my book very smooth and easy. Everyone over spoken to is very friendly and helpful!

I strongly recommend Spines to any Author or Aspiring Author looking to bring their Book to life and placing it in front of the world to enjoy...and their Spines team are very Understanding and Supportive, it was truly a tremendous pleasure working with Yanina and Bianca , they guided and kept me updated with the different stages of producing and publishing my book, Thank You!

Spines Publishing is the third company I have had to publish my Adventures of Calvin and Calley series, and let me tell you third time was definitely the charm. Natalia Almonacid was and is my book manager. She is the best. She would call or email back in a timely matter and helped to get not one but two books in a reasonable amount of time. Also when it comes to royalties this place pays as well as let's you sell your books at a reasonable price. I couldn't ask for a better Publishing Company than Spines Publishing.

As a prolific author with over 20 titles I was encouraged by my readers to publish. I interviewed several publishers and decided to work with Spines. I couldn't be happier! My account manager Wardah and production manager Melina were very helpful and talented throughout the publishing process. I highly recommend Spines Publishing!

Spines has been excellent. And my account manager, Jose Francisco has been diligent, quick to respond, professional, and very efficient. It’s actually been a joy to work with him & the spines team.

I have been working with Spines publishing company for over a year and I hope that I can succeed with them!My publisher is the first 👌 of her kind and I will keep this up!Ivana ❤️ you are the best!

I would like to write a review of my publication experience with Naara Rios and Jose Francisco Uzcate. They were very helpful in the editing and publication process which resulted in a book of high professional quality. Furthermore, they were encouraging and delightful to work with.. It is with sincerity that I recommend them to any author who would seek publication of their manuscript

I have worked with two staff members at Spines: Vini Muniz as my Account Manager and Thaís Oliveira Leme as the Production Manager for the E-Book version. Both have been very friendly, helpful and professional.

Still waiting for a refund. I paid $136.29 to start the process, being told I had 7 days to back out. I decided not to move forward within 24 hours, did not sign the contract, and contacted them many times. That was 9/8/25. Today is 10/1/25. Bad customer service.

Just went live today and so far so good. Maria was wonderful. We did have a few communication problems, It was my first experience and I advised them I have Parkinsons and they worked with me. I am waiting on instructions for hard back purchase. Have not dealt with royalties yet,

Natalia Almonacid was my account manager at Spines. She was extremely responsive and helpful, making suggestions that contributed to a polished product. I also commend my proofreader Ela Nazari for her skilled proofreading. Both of these Spines' professionals contributed significantly to a successful book! Natalia was very patient with making changes, going above and beyond to make certain that I was satisfied with the results. Ela also patiently made changes to my manuscript. Both were efficient and made the requested changes in a timely manner. I highly recommend Natalia, Ela and Spines publishing company!

As someone who is a newbie to writing I am amazed at the services Spines provided. Ela Nazari worked so diligently and professionally to help me get a product ready for print that a special thank you to Ela. I never expected to have a final product that can stand next to any other published book and look as good or better than the others. If you need a company to deliver on their promise then look no further than Spines!
