This book is so helpful and very easy to read! The structure and design layout make a huge difference in grasping information. Full credit to the author/s for achieving the perfect toolkit for Netgalley. Very Impressed and I thoroughly encourage readers to make the most of this opportunity to find out how things work.

The Book Advocate Toolkit is an invaluable resource especially for new members. It provides clear and concise guidance on navigating the platform, setting up a profile and writing meaningful reviews. The tips on what publishers and authors look for in reviews are particularly helpful. I believe it's an essential resource for anyone new to NetGalley or looking to improve their reviewing skills.
Overall, this is a must-read for anyone who wants to make the most of their NetGalley membership. It's a comprehensive and accessible guide that will help you become a more effective book advocate.

I've been on NetGalley for nearly a year now and this did help me with what to include in a review 😊

I would recommend this to anyone who is unsure or wants reassurance that they are including all they can in their reviews.

I wish I read this when I first started using NetGalley as I can see how this would be very useful for a newbie. So I highly recommend this to anyone who is new to NetGalley!

Great guide on how to utilize NetGalley! Really cute, and easy to just skim through and go back to find certain details.

Good updates were made to this toolkit. I especially liked the flow chart graphs that help when you are stuck or unsure what your next steps should be when reviewing/DNFing a book.

This is such a great resource for NetGalley newbies. I updated my bio after reading through this guide because I realized that it was sterile. I didn't have much information about myself as a reader, so I fixed it.

Thank you for creating this document! A quick read for beginners. It’s a helpful guide in navigating the site, requesting, and reviewing. There’s some features and icons I didn’t know about. The publisher approval preferences section was great to learn about to help create a profile.

This is basic information. It could be helpful information if someone is brand new to how to get the word out and what to do on and with netgalley.
