The social media side of book reviewing is definitely my weakest link, so I really appreciate this resource for offering clear tips and tricks on how to get started (and how to actually improve once you’re there). I’m a lover of books first and foremost, and that passion doesn’t always translate easily to technology. This guide feels like a solid starting point to bridge that gap, and I’m hopeful it will help me strengthen both my presence online and my contributions as a reviewer.

Thank you We Are Bookish and Netgalley for this great social media handbook!
I really appreciated all the information and great graphics. It was clear and concise!
As I've started to think about and begin to make my own book related social media page this was a great guide.

Very useful and helpful information if you are (like me) new to the book reviewing world across different platforms!

This is an excellent resource for book reviews looking for advice and a guide to strategize on how to implement their reviews onto their social channels. The Table of Contents is vast and is clickable/linked so you can easily jump into a certain section.

The handbook includes different social medias, a getting started section, book review tips, strategies, and resources. It's very informative 35 page read. The handbook is perfect for those getting started and even the more seasoned reviewers can still benefits on the tips and strategies to help continue to grow their platforms. I liked that it just doesn't focus on one social media site but different mediums. The don't section while seems obvious, it's easy to sometimes forget or overlook like not tagging authors in negative reviews. It includes some suggestions like free apps to use for editing like Canva and Snapseed.

Overall, it makes getting starting on your bookish theme socials less intimidating. It's truly an invaluable tool to up one's social media game.

Good material and worth looking into, especially if your new to the book social media game. I have been in it for almost two years and this was helpful

This book is as very useful for getting started with social media and trying to gain followers and just general help with all things book review and social media related

I wish I’d had this Social Media Handbook back when I started my Bookstagram account earlier this year—it’s packed with the kind of tips I learned gradually over time. When you’re brand new to content creation, it can feel intimidating, but this resource lays everything out clearly and makes it easy to get started.

The advice applies to any platform, and many of the strategies can be used well beyond NetGalley—whether for improving your everyday photography skills or other creative projects. It’s concise, well-organized, and highly accessible, yet also includes plenty of hyperlinks to further resources for those who want to dive deeper into specific topics.
