I really enjoyed reading this comprehensive guide to using NetGalley's online platform. I have been a user of the site for several years, but made a goal for 2025 to improve my feedback ratio to hopefully get approved for upcoming new releases I am really excited about. I thought the examples of bio information, the tips for requests and approvals, and the helpful tips were great for a newbie or an experienced user of NetGalley. I would highly recommend anyone read through this as a refresher on best practices as a reviewer!

This toolkit has been very useful to me while on netgalley. It has provided me with many useful tips to improve my profile and reviews. This toolkit has really helped me to provide the best reviews possible.

These guides provided by NetGalley are so perfect and are something I have saved on my phone and on my computer. (I wonder if I can downloaad on my Kindle too?!). They are so helpful and nice to have to track books, but also gives so much in depth inforamtion on how to write a good book review.

I feel like recently I've been getting a whoooole lot of declines on requests. So, here's hoping this helps me get some more approvals under my belt!

NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit is a complete and concise overview of the NetGalley interface. New users can benefit from profile tips, a site naviagation guide, and review examples, while more seasoned users can delve deeper using the hyperlinks to more specific resources. It's easy to read and visually appealing. I'm sure I'll continue referring to this toolkit as I explore NetGalley's features.

I wish I was given the opportunity to read through this guide when I first started with Netgalley! I would have made far fewer mistakes. Though I do now already know what is included, I feel that this guide is very helpful. Especially for those new to this platform.

Helpful hints that I will refer back to in the future.
