With this, it was questioned what would be the influence of videos about books on TikTok in relation to sales in the publishing market and to answer this problem, in addition to the bibliographic and documentary research on the objects of study, two questionnaires were also applied, one with users of TikTok and another with content creators, in order to seek to understand the behavior of readers within the platform and the degree of influence that BookTok has in the lives of respondents.
