Excellent compilation of ideas and techniques to be a great book advocate. The book is clear and informative. This book is a must have for those just starting their journey or those looking to polish their art.
Thank you WeAreBookish and Netgalley for this book to review.

As a new NetGalley user, this is a great tool. I just finished my first book and am working on writing the review. Reviewing ARCs and ALCs are different than a standard review, so understanding the nuances and what publishers are looking for is helpful.

This is a very illuminating guide to all NetGalley users. Very detailed and cleanly organised that the reader can make excellent use of it.

This guide was very helpful in helping me understand how to write critical reviews of books! Before Netgalley, I generally gave a one to two sentence review on Goodreads or Fable and that was it. I plan to publish more of my reviews and deep dives into books via my Substack, Tiktok, and Instagram - and I think the tips given in this book will help me create those reviews more successfully for each platform.

I'm a long-time NetGalley user. and found this guide to be a great refresher on writing and sharing reviews. New users of NetGalley will also benefit from the thorough walk-through the site and helpful tips to start requesting and reviewing.

I think this book will be give me lots of useful information to make me a better reviewing in the future.

This is a well laid out guide for getting started with NetGalley. It has some incredibly useful tips for what to include in your profile, how to find information, and getting started with reading. It's fun, and lays out the major points, with more detail included in links. It's easy to read, and definitely something I know I'll continue to reference.

Thanks for all the helpful tips! This tool is an excellent resource for beginners who want to learn and improve.

This is an extremely helpful NetGalley user guide. It details the user interface, developing a profile, and increasing feedback ratios. I appreciate how the graphics are engaging and the information is digestible.

It was very helpful and informative. I was very confused about how to begin writing reviews, even though I generally write book reviews- I wasn’t sure I was doing it right. It’s great to learn more about Netgalley and writing reviews in general.

This ToolKit provides a starting point for someone new to working with NetGalley and even those new to reviewing books. The tips give a view of what needs to be added into a review, how to keep publishers interested in your review. I would recommend this to anyone looking to start an effective journey as a new reviewer.

I really like this. For someone trying to grow their social media and arc acceptance levels it’s. Really good guide nd outlines everything clearly. Definitely recommend if you’re new to netgalley!

A brilliant and useful toolkit, full of handy tips and pointers.
This is an absolute godsend for the times when review block hits.
Thank you!

I shouldve gotten this from day one of using NetGalley! I didn't think i'd get approved for hardly any books, went on a request spree, & now i'm paying the price. But its less stressful now that I know what i'm doing, all thanks to this little guide. take it from me & get this before you do anything else on net galley!

Nice material to improve my NetGalley profile and presence.
It is super niche, but I think it gives an insider’s perspective on dos and don’ts in the platform.
Loved to read about it and I’m looking forward to reach my 80% feedback ratio!

Some great tips included. I didn't know about the Approval Preferences as a new user. The tips of how to write a review is straightforward and a good start or first draft of a review.

Great resource for anyone getting started with NetGalley! Found lots of helpful tips and Im sure I will return to this guide from time to time.
Thank you for the wonderful resource!

Thank you to Netgalley and We Are Bookish for a digital copy of this toolkit. All opinions are my own.

I didn't think this Toolkit would be so complete. This is incredibly useful! I do recommend it to everyone who wants to know more about how NetGalley works.
