What an awesome tool. This is one I definitely need to review more from time to time. Thank you for this tool so I can improve upon my craft of writing reviews.

This is extremely helpful, I'll make sure to circle back as I look to continue growing my reach!
I'm really glad that NetGalley wants to support its readers as well as authors equally, to ensure that the right books reach the right audiences (and we can continue to keep people reading more!)

I had been looking for a book like this for a long time. I joined NetGalley only recently. I have started reviewing books I've read recently as well, and some times I've been unsure about what to write, how to give proper justice to a book I've read and loved. This very intuitive book gives many amazing tips about how to write reviews and use NetGalley with respect to the authors and publishers, with additional very useful links to online material. It gives tips about how to share reviews on social media as well. I'm going to keep this as a personal guide to reread to help and encourage me in the writing process of a book review. Thank you for making this!

I found this so helpful in crafting my reviews and will absolutely be using it going forward. Thanks for creating this wonderful guide!

I found this so helpful! I can’t wait to work on building my platform on both Goodreads and Instagram. Thank you for making this available to us.

The Book Advocate Toolkit is packed with helpful advice wherever you stand on your bookish journey! From assembling your NetGalley profile to fending off reviewer’s block, this guide makes the whole thing a lot less daunting. It also serves as approachable inspiration for Bookshops to find their footing on Bookstagram and Booktok. Happy reading!

This was a really well made tool. For new members, it's worth the read and will help you get started off on the right track. For current members this is a great freshers to refer back to whenever you need.

All the Twitter stuff needs to go. The rest was very helpful. The instructions on how to set up my profile and write reviews were very helpful.

This is a quick tips book for anyone new to book reviewing or who want to increase their knowledge of what makes book reviews tick across various platforms.
I love the simple (yet effective) layout and the tips are very helpful from how to create reviews, to creating your space across platforms, as well as how to create your NetGalley presence to increase your opportunities of approval.
My favorite tip for the NetGalley presence is not getting caught up in requests sprees! That is so easy to do when you want to read all of the books, but alas can work against you.
I am working on growth and consistency currently so I will certainly put several of these tips to good use across my platforms.

Great guide for users who are new to NetGalley and also for users that are looking to either grow or enhance their experience using the site. I highly recommend to anyone on the platform new or experienced!

This toolkit is great for new reviewers like me! I am new to bookstagram and this toolkit provides helpful tips and information. I would highly recommend it to anyone starting out!
Thank you NetGalley and We Are Bookish for the opportunity to read this book and write a review!

Holy wow. This book has so many helpful tips and ideas to improve book reviews and sharing on different social media platforms. I found this book extremely helpful and useful and wish I had this earlier. Thank you for letting me have a free copy to review and read.

This toolkit was the perfect guide to NetGalley as a new reviewer. Having just finished my first book and wondering how to write a strong review, this guide included the basics that should be included in every review and gave me the proper tools to get started. I would recommend this to anyone getting started on NetGalley for the first time!
Thank you to NetGalley and We Are Bookish for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

A very helpful guide for improving the quality 9f my reviews. I'm looking to up my feedback rating this year and will be putting these tips to use.

This is so great! I feel like this toolkit has given me a ton of ideas on how to improve my bookstagram and my booktok blogs! It can be so hard to write all your thoughts about what you read and this gives so many great tips on how to improve that! I’m still new to NetGalley and learning as I go along and I think this will help me exponentially!

This toolkit provides a simple and effective way to write a book review. Loved the helpful ideas and thought provoking questions. Definitely recommend reading if you're new to writing reviews or need a quick refresher.

This has been a very helpful guidebook on how to write reviews. Separating it by different sections and subjections is a wonderful and quick way to help me find what I need. I plan to use this every time I review a book.

This is such a helpful resource to inform/remind the bookish community of best practices when it comes to reviewing and championing books. I love that it includes some of the current trends and platforms on which books are highlighted. It would be great to have this resource revamped and promoted every few years or whenever big changes have been made to make sure we're all in the know about how best to help books and readers connect.

This book has wonderful advice that targets all aspects of NetGalley from the reviewers standpoint. It also includes advice for your socials such as Insta, TikTok, Facebook, etc. I will definitely implement the knowledge I learned in regards to instagram hashtags and be more engaging with other bookstagrammers.

Short and sweet. This book is full of useful information as well as a recap to what I thought I knew. The format is well constructed and includes additional links which I found very handy.
I would say this is a must read for anyone starting to review books.
Thank you to NetGalley and We Are Bookish for a copy of this book.
