Great resource for both new and experienced NetGalley users. This book gives you insight on how to write a review, recommendations on how to update your profile and other tips/tricks. I will be using these to make my NetGalley experience even better. Extremely helpful!

This is a great resource while getting started with NetGalley. It answers a lot of questions without being overwhelming, like many getting started guides can be. The visual presentation is pleasing and easy to digest. I appreciate the thought that went into the user experience on this.

This is a really great guide whether you're just starting out on netgalley, or have been at it awhile. It give some great tips and tricks for different places to review and how to review if your struggling. I especially enjoyed the parts where it lets you know how you might start a booktube channel as I've been thinking about that for awhile.

This is a great tool for any reviewer/social media book influencer!
It's definitely a resource I will be looking back on and using in the future. The tips are invaluable and I have learned a lot of things that I will be implementing on my blog and Instagram.
If you're just starting out on Netgalley or any book socials, this is the place to start.
Thank you Netgalley for always putting out such invaluable content for us!

This is an excellent resource for anyone reviewing on NetGalley. From advice on blogs and profile to advice on youtube and tiktok, this guide has it all. It's incredibly clear and well-written, and the layout and graphics are colorful and super easy to read. The pops of color in different sections keep your eye moving along the page and help the tips stick out. I learned some very useful tips that I am going to put into practice for my blog, profile, and twitter. I think this would help everyone from netgalley newbies to seasoned reviewers.

Loved this, this was really very helpful. The tips on how to write a book review according to what the publisher wants, and how to streamline your requests are really going to help moving forward.

A great source of information for new reviewers to NetGalley!

I have picked up a few ideas myself to implement when reviewing and can't wait to start with Canva!

I think this is a must-read for all new members.

For anyone wanting to maximise their engagement with NetGalley this is a handy little booklet. It goes into useful details about the dos and don'ts of various social media and how to post across various platforms. The layout is bold and user-friendly. I'd recommend this to anyone starting out on NetGalley.

I learned a few new techniques and content ideas for my blog I've been working on. I found this toolkit to be very helpful in describing reviews and what to include and not include in order to catch others' attention. I actually downloaded an app in case I want to create a bookstagram (most likely not because I don't have much time). Although, I learned to keep a schedule in check for my blog to keep it consistent. I'm looking forward to taking my book reviews to the next level.

The Book Advocate Toolkit gives so many tips & tricks for reviews & social media content. With an active Bookstagram I really found some of the suggestions very helpful. These ideas are useful to both newbies & experienced book reviewers alike & they help in understanding the way Netgalley works, requesting & reviewing strategies & creating bookish content for social media.

Thanks you so much We are Bookish for providing us with this toolkit.

a very much needed book for all those who are already on NG, and for those who want to start their NG journey - got some useful reminders (especially this - avoid the request spree")

Kudos to the team to have added this - this should be the first book all the users are made to mandatorily download even before they go to read now or request section!

This was AWESOME! I wish I had this when I first started my bookstagram account! Downloading canva now! Thanks netgalley!

This contains fabulous tips and tricks for this (relatively) new bookstagrammer. I truly appreciate the help in formulating my opinions in a concise and impactful way. If only I had a primer like this in the early days, I might not be still playing catch-up with the elusive 80% ratio.
Thank you!

It had tons of helpful tips on how to navigate the site, to write book reviews, to run a bookish social media, and to strategize bookish content. This guide is highly recommended for anyone looking to take their NetGalley account to the next level, and I know that I will be referring to it often! Thank you to NetGalley team for publishing this super helpful resource.

This was a super helpful toolkit to help you navigate Netgalley. It has tips and tricks for writing reviews, using social media, and book blogging. I myself am confident using LibraryThing, StoryGraph, GoodReads, Facebook, and Twitter but this guide will help me branch out more on Instagram and a book blog.

Thanks for the tips. :)
