NetGalley’s Social Media Handbook is a must-read for anyone just starting their Bookstagram journey—especially if you’re feeling anxious about what to post, how to take photos, or how to format your reviews. As someone new to this space, I found the tips incredibly practical and reassuring.

What stood out most to me were the clear do’s and don’ts for posting on social media, along with insight into what publishers and authors actually value in a reviewer’s online presence. From caption suggestions to photo tips and engagement strategies, this handbook made something that felt overwhelming feel completely doable.

If you’re a beginner looking to build confidence and connect with the bookish community in a meaningful way, this resource is a fantastic place to start. I’ll definitely be using these tips as I grow my platform and share more reviews on Instagram!

This handbook is so helpful As someone relatively new to reviews and social media, I learned a lot of great information. I'll be referencing this a lot!

I've been looking for reliable tips for the variety of social media platforms in the bookish space. I love how the guide breaks things down. I will be applying many of these asap.

This is a fine basic guide to social media. It’s perfect for people who have zero knowledge of how to use the many social media platforms available.

This pdf provide a comprehensive guide on how to review on all the various social media and review sites. It was actually really helpful and even provided cool ideas for posting!

As a big fan of checklists plus do's/don'ts suggestions, THANK YOU! This handbook was extremely helpful as someone starting out to do book reviews on Instagram and TikTok. Which I greatly appreciated it expanded on various forms of social media because so often some folks just think of the popular platforms (like TikTok and Instagram). They added information on Youtube and Blogging, if you want to explore that area or you're already doing it. The infographics were helpful and easy to read! I've read previous handbooks similar to this topic and sometimes it's just too wordy or information overload. They kept it simple, straight to the point, and fun to read! Thanks We Are Bookish and NetGalley for taking the time to create this handy workbook!

Super helpful social media handbook! Thanks for providing this information and setting reviewers up for success!!
