This toolkit is so usefull to start using NetGalley! I'm still very new to all of this, so I regularly check it.

Very helpful guide on how to write reviews for books. Definitely recommend to people who are new to writing book reviews.

Quick to read toolkit that gives you the 411 on all things NetGalley. Highly recommend this for all newbies.

Great toolkit for NetGalley beginners! It had all the instructions I needed to get started and easily navigate the platform.

Thank you, NetGalley! This is a wonderful resource to help improve our usership on your website and establish great relationships with your partnering publisher.s I have this bookmarked for easy review as I read my current and future galleys.

Thank you NetGalley for creating this toolkit. This was a very informative toolkit... I wish it had been provided BEFORE I was able to apply for any ARCs. Without knowing the ins and outs of how this work, I did just what the toolkit warned against doing (put out a bunch of requests assuming I wouldn't get approved for very many). Now that I know that, I am working hard to get through my list and post reviews so that my ratio is good.

Great resource for starting out. This had some wonderful tips on reviewing books that can go further than just netgalley.

This book was very helpful! As a new NetGalley user I have been struggling trying to learn ways to get approved to read and review books and this guide made it very easy. There are tips on what to include in your bio, how to access books, navigating the site and more. Highly recommend starting here if you’re a new user and want to build a profile that will help you!

This is a great informative resource for those of us who are new to Netgalley. It's written clearly and succinctly, and the page layouts are neat and crisp. The graphic design is simple but eye catching and just lovely.

As a lover of books, I joined the NetGalley community in pursuit of the opportunity to read books, review and love them, along with spreading the word to others. Upon joining NetGalley I have noticed some areas that are within my control/based on my actions. Downloading this Toolkit book and reading it is among the plenty of resourceful tools that NetGalley has provided me. I hope that once I have implemented everything I can be closer to my goal of spreading the word for the lovely stories I've had the pleasure of consuming!

Very handy guide for new users of NetGalley, like myself! Attractive but clear layout, which succeeds in drawing attention when it needs to. I liked the use of lists. This will certainly help me get started on my NetGalley journey!
One thing I missed was how to use a Kobo E-reader to read books. I understand there's some issues regarding that at the moment but it would be a helpful inclusion for the future.

Allowed me to understand NetGalley more and now I have a better understanding of how this platform works! Thank you!!!

A great guide for those just starting out on NetGalley. Gives a lot of insight into what publishers are looking for to get approved for requests of books. I feel more confident and comfortable using the platform now.

This NetGalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit really helps reviewers get a deeper understanding of the inner-workings within NetGalley. It also helps explain how you can format and structure reviews. All of this information is a great help for someone who is just getting started with reviews.

The NetGalley Book Advocate Toolkit is super helpful if you are new to being a book reviewer. I really appreicated the tips about what publisher's look for in your profile, how to update it and why you should update it every couple months. The details around how to write a book review, even if you choose to DNF was also super helpful. I've been doing this for about a year now and I still learned a few new things after reading this! I have this saved on my computer so I can reference it often and highly recommend to anyone looking for some extra tips and tricks as you navigate your book reviewing journey on NetGalley!

Very helpful for someone just getting started with NetGalley. I’m very excited to start reading books on this app and reviewing them.

This toolkit really helped get a deeper understanding of how NetGalley works. Also it explained how you can format and structure your reviews. All this information is a great help for someone who is just getting started in this field.

I just recently joined netgalley and I’ve been getting denied for all of my book requests. I’m glad I came across the toolkit because now I know exactly what to do moving forward! Everyone should read this when just getting started.

A helpful resource for understanding how to use the NetGalley for all types of readers. Lots of useful tips and links to articles that explain things further if needed. Good start and a reminder for NetGalley users whether new or not.

This guide was incredibly well-written and full of practical advice. It helped me enhance my profile to make it more appealing to publishers and offered clear tips for navigating the site more effectively. I’m so glad I read it and highly recommend it to anyone new to NetGalley!
