So incredibly thankful to Netgalley for proactively looking out for the bookish community. Covers all the major platforms and gives straightforward, supportive advice.

Really love all of the information provided in this social media handbook. I have a Booktok-ish account that I want to dive back into soon. I also want to start a Booktube account after I finish Grad school at the end of this year so the links, examples, and tips are so helpful!

I wish there was more information and guides to strengthening my Netgalley profile for bigger publishers. Sometimes I have issues with getting approved for big name authors/popular series.

Very helpful to my next planning steps with my bookstagram but wish there was more information on how to strengthen my NetGalley profile.

I found this really helpful thanks NetGally, The only criticism I have is that it’s packed with loads of helpful links but you can’t open them in the background so I had to keep going back into the book to find where I was.

This is a helpful guide for book advocates who are starting a social media page. It discusses sites such as Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and X. For users who already have a page, the information may be a bit basic.

I loved this as a bookish creator. I’ve had my bookstagram for over a year and I would’ve loved to have this when I first started out. This gives you tips and tricks to starting your account. The dos and donts to posting. This is also super helpful if I want to branch out to other social media platforms. I think this will help me grow my account and make posting easier.

The NetGalley's Social Media Handbook by We Are Bookish is a must-read for for anyone with a book-focused social media account. This is great for those just starting off with tips and tricks, while also providing further information and how-tos for those who have been around awhile. It was amazing that this handbook included so many different platforms, as many just default to Instagram or TikTok! I will definitely be using this when I'm feeling stuck or need something to reference!

Really useful guide that I will keep coming back to as I start building my Instagram and YouTube account's. It will also be helpful if I decided to start posting to Booktok in the future.

What a great introduction guide to bookish social media. I do wish they had included a section about Fable. I think that book site is really going to takeoff. The guide has very basic tips, but it’s a great way to get started. The graphics are clear and easy to read.
