Thank you netgalley for these tools.
I have thought enjoyed reading and reviewing the books I'm been approved for and hope to continue being a member of the great book community

I appreciated the advice shared in this toolkit. The hints and tips may help improve my Feedback Ratio which is an ongoing problem as I keep discovering so many great books being offered. I appreciate all the help We Are Bookish and NetGalley.

As a newbie at NewGallery, this toolkit was like a treasure map guiding me through uncharted territory. Even though it's mainly geared towards social media, it’s packed with nifty tips and tricks for crafting reviews and keeping key points in mind. Think of it as a fun children's workbook—easy to follow, with all the important details popping out like colorful illustrations.

The advice and tools in this guide were heavily focused on social media, which isn't a bad thing, but it wasn't what I was looking for. Only a small portion of the tools were geared toward improving reviews themselves, and I expected more of the toolkit to be about the reviews themselves and not about where all the reviews could be posted and viewed. I appreciate that there were links to the Bookish website for further information on topics, but it makes me wonder why this toolkit was made at all if all the information--and more--can be found together on the website itself.

This helped me understand more about Netgalley! Very helpful in how to review arcs on different platforms, such as: instagram, twitter, tiktok, goodreads and even your own blog!

Very helpful resource to have for those requesting and reviewing on NetGalley. I just wish I’d known about it sooner! I’ll definitely be referring to this guide regularly moving forward!

This is a resource on how to use Netgalley well, tips on what to do and not when starting out to write good reviews and increase your chances of getting approved for books you request. The second half is mostly about growing your online presence on various social media platforms to share your reviews and bookish thoughts to a wider audience.

I finally learned the reason for thanking Netgalley and the publisher in reviews, so I’ll probably be more careful about that in the future. Highly recommend if you’re new to Netgalley or trying to grow a bookish platform!

I must admit that had signed up for NetGalley a while ago, but truly did not understand how it works. I did read and review some works, but totally forgot about others, requested way too many books at the same time and got really behind. Reading through this Book Advocate Toolkit really helped me understand some of those mistakes I made. I appreciate the simple and graphic way this toolkit has been put together and I will make sure to follow it's advice in the future.

This is a really useful resource for reviewing / bookstagram and having a positive return for books on netgalley.

I've particularly appreciated the hints and tips for reviewing audiobooks and writing critical reviews.

Super useful for someone new to NetGalley! Full of good information and tips on how to use this platform for good and to help authors.

A must-read, helpful guide for new reviewers! This brief overview of how to use NetGalley and optimize your reviewing platforms contains useful tips for setting up a NetGalley profile, how to structure your reviews, and how to set up profiles and review in other social apps like Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and blogging. It introduces helpful ideas like using Canva for creating social media posting templates, or creating a spreadsheet to track your content planning, plus how to increase your chances of being approved for new books by maintaining a good feedback ratio.
I will likely consult this helpful resource again.

Oh wow I’m a newer member and didn’t notice this was available. Looked helpful for new reviewers. I glanced through it quickly and will be making sure to dig deeper.

This is the perfect tool for readers new to Netgalley, but also contains a few tips that may be helpful to experienced reviewers.
This guide lays out all the steps to start out on Netgalley and how to perfect your profile. It also presents an overview of social media platforms as well as tips and tricks for writing the best reviews.
A must-have for all Netgalley reviewers!

Very helpful for reviewing guidance and feedback tips. Just submitted my first review earlier today - thank you NetGalley!

Great guidelines for reviewing books with some easy to follow suggestions! I’ve been reviewing for awhile, but these were nice reminders!

Tysm for making this for us netgalley newbs. It was informative and helpful.
I'm sure it will help me get my score up.

Even though I’ve been using NetGalley for over a year now, I found this toolkit to be very helpful. I’m just now branching out to social media as I’ve always preferred Goodreads. But I know that I can reach more people if I try out Twitter or instagram so giving it a go. Lots of helpful advice for newcomers and even those like me who already know the basics. Will definitely be referring to this as needed to help me create better content and reviews!

Really helpful, I am glad that I have read this guide. It gives nice advice and helps with some specific things. I really liked that a part focussed on accessibility because it is so important and yet so many bookish accounts choose to ignore those facts.

Very informative, helpful and overall a very nice toolkit to have in your backpocket while reviewing books!

This short guide was very helpful. It gave simple ways to improve your reviews and social postings. It had simple step-by-step tips for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and blogs.
