Highly recommended guide for a NetGalley newbie like myself. I found many useful tips for the best use of this platform, like ways to request books, connect with publishers, set up captivating profiles, write an appealing and constructive review, improve feedback ratio, and other useful resources. In fact, the first step I took reading this toolkit was to update my profile to express myself better.

The NetGalley Advocate Toolkit has been super helpful for me as a book reviewer. It’s full of useful resources like ready-made graphics and caption suggestions, which have made it so much easier to promote books I’m reading. The tips on how to write reviews and improve my NetGalley profile were also really helpful.

The only downside is that the graphics are pre-designed, so there’s not much room to personalize them. But overall, it’s been a great tool for promoting ARCs and engaging with my audience.

Very helpful with managing my accounts that are just starting out and still finding their footing. I really appreciate the support and guidance as I work to build a stronger foundation and grow in the coming future. It’s not always easy starting from scratch, but having helpful resources and encouragement makes a big difference. I feel much more confident moving forward knowing that I have the tools I need to succeed. With time, consistency, and the right help, I’m excited to see where this journey will lead. Thank you for making the beginning stages a little easier and a lot brighter!

Im very new to NetGalley but this toolkit already helped so much. It includes so much useful information and has a very user friendly (and eye friendly) design.

Great tips for using NetGalley. I wish I’d have had this when I joined. It’ll be useful for people who’ve been on NetGalley for a short or long time.

Very handy guide to NetGalley! It really helped me understand what I should include in my profile and the best way to layout reviews. Some of the info was pretty self explanatory but overall a helpful compilation.

Generally very informative, but quite basic. A lot of the information given is fairly self-explanatory and I feel that the bigger issues that I've faced as a Book Advocate aren't covered here, or in the support sections of the website.

I would also say that some sections (particularly the beginning) come across as quite condescending and patronising.

NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit is a great resource for anyone who is new to reviewing ARC's on NetGalley. I learned a lot throughout this short book on how to properly review ARC's. It was incredibly insightful and I am thankful the resource was provided. Thank you for making this available for reviewers.
