NetGalley comes through with yet another tool to help boost your NetGalley experience! After reviewing the Reading Journal and Book Advocate Toolkit, have kept an eye out for anything else NetGalley publishes to assist reviewers. This was a great introduction and explanation of the various social media platforms and how to get started with them. I primarily post on Instagram and GoodReads, but I have been curious about some of the other platforms out there, and this has once again got me thinking about if I can expand my reach with other platforms. I will be investigating some of the options discussed to see how I might be able to share books on more platforms and be more effective with my tags and hashtags. Thank you for providing this!

A big thank you to Netgalley for this handbook. It is full of information and I learned a lot thanks to it. It is well structured, full of useful links (and they all work!), and nicely illustrated.
It is a really nice idea to put this guide together because for those of us not so experienced, navigating social media is not an easy challenge.
For me, the highlight in this guide is the platform-specific advice. Extremely valuable.
All the advice is very welcome and this guide is a very good companion to the Book Advocate Toolkit.

What a short and concise guidebook for a beginner lke me. I’ve surely learnt something as small as how to provide review to staying organised in various social media platforms. The handbook provides sections for different platforms so I could focus on which platform that is relevant, with helpful external links that provide more detail explanation. Thank you We Are Bookish for such a helpful handbook!

This is a great beginning guide to starting a bookish social media! Most all platforms are covered at least a little bit and all of the information is specific to the platform they are currently talking about.
