Ok, this book is super helpful and I regret not reading it sooner! As a crash-course guide to book reviews, you’ll learn the ins and outs of writing a review and raising your feedback percentage, and you’ll also get a lot of useful tidbits on creating your own review voice and what appeals to followers. Not only that, but I expected page after page of a textbook like manual but nope! What you’ll get is quick and easy to follow instructions with colorful graphics that are clear and concise. This guide will only take you a few minutes to read, but you’ll gain a ton of valuable insight

I felt this book was extremely helpful with explaining how to set up my account, write a review, and help strengthen my profile. It also explained how the program altogether. I have been reviewing books on Netgalley since 2019 and I learned quite a bit from this toolkit.

Thanks NetGalley and We Are Bookish for this guide!

I recommend this to all new NetGalley users. Helped me tremendously when learning to write good reviews and updating my profile.

This short tutorial to NetGalley's main site was helpful for those just starting out with the platform. It contained helpful links to forms and gave examples of key features like your bio and a review.

As a longtime user who has more in-depth questions, I felt it was lacking a little. For example, what profile type is a freelance editor? Do books received via email from publishers count toward your feedback ratio if you don't complete it?

All in all, this is a helpful guide for newbies or those with simple beginner questions.

This book was amazing. It gave the tools to understand NetGalley and what is expected. It tells the reader about their profile, what a publisher looks for, how to do a review, etc. I wish I had read this sooner.

Thank you for the Book Advocate Toolkit. This has everything I needed to get started on reviewing books.

This is an incredible resource! I have been reviewing on NetGalley since 2022 and I found so many valuable tips in this guide I will implement in my reviews!

Thanks for providing a reference document to learn how to write review. It helps to remind me of all the thing that I should include in a review, especially one for commercial websites.

Very usefull! I would probably be in the unknown without this on NetGalley. I think this title should be give to new user and be use as introduction to the website.

Just wanted to say how much I appreciate the Book Advocate Toolkit! As a Bookstagrammer, it’s incredibly helpful to have clear tips and resources that make it easier to promote books thoughtfully and effectively. The guidance on writing reviews, sharing on social media, and being a supportive part of the book community really resonated with me.

It’s clear that a lot of care went into creating something that helps readers feel confident and creative in their advocacy—and I’m already putting some of it into practice. Thank you for making this available and for supporting reviewers like me!

Really helpful!! I have just started tryimg to read ARC seriously so this is really helpful and gives me ideas on things to do, things to not do. So helpful and thanks for creating it!

Really helpful for anyone new to the site, such as myself. It’s formatted very nicely and covers a good range of topics for book reviewing and the general usage of NetGalley!

This was a great beginner’s guide to the NetGalley platform! With only being 31 pages, it’s very succinct and delivers helpful tips in a direct way. As someone who only started using NetGalley this year I’m always looking to learn more and this guide definitely gave me a few more pointers, along with some more useful information to get the best experience here.

This is extremely informative. Everything NetGalley has put out has been so fantastic. I know it will help me be a better advocate.

super informative and helpful to old and new NetGalley users. will definitely help on our collective journey as readers and reviewers.

A great resource for all NetGalley users! The toolkit is very thoughtfully laid out and packed with information, details and best practices to help us become the best book advocates we can be. Especially love the section on crafting reviews. Thank you!

Really useful for getting started on NetGalley and I'm sure I'll be referring back to it plenty! Thank you We Are Bookish team for providing this guide.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing a guide to a newcomer in the review world! This was very helpful to get started.

This is a clear, user-friendly resource for anyone looking to improve how they share and review books. It’s full of tips on building your platform and connecting with other readers without feeling overwhelming.

Helpful for getting started and figuring out how to boost my acceptance rate for previewing books. I have been using NetGalley for awhile, but am wanting to boost my review writing to get approved for books from more popular publishers. I am looking forward to putting these tips in action.
