I appreciated this guide from NetGalley as I am new to reviewing advanced copies from authors and publishers. I had so many questions, and I was worried I wouldn't know what to do when I got started... NetGalley to the rescue with their short and sweet guide on how to get started! I 100% recommend giving this a read if you are unsure of where to start or what to do once you are approved for your first arc! Take advantage of the help being given to you! I also recommend following their blog where they have hundreds of posts available to you that share how to do all the things in a step by step guide.

NetGalley is a marvelous digital space where authors can share advance reader copies of their books enabling reviewers to help promote and get the word out about new books. NetGalley has created a guide to help new (or seasoned) reviewers improve their performance.

For anyone new to the world of book reviewing (or to NetGalley specifically), I highly recommend requesting this toolkit. The first section offers a helpful orientation to all things pertaining to NetGalley and its website. This section serves as a tutorial for getting the most out of the website and for becoming familiar with its various sections and features.

The second section pertains to the nuts and bolts of writing reviews including general tips for writing, an explanation of DNF ("Did Not Finish"), an example of a review for reference, and some general helps on how best to use social media.

The third section gives more tips, tricks, and tools for taking your reviews to the next level. I appreciate how much NetGalley does in the way of support and education to help reviewers be the best they can be. I've been reviewing on NetGalley since 2017 and I learned a few things myself!

Disclaimer: I received a free digital copy of "NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit" for the purpose of review. No other compensation was received.
