This is a great handbook to get started with NetGalley and various social media sites. This has been very helpful as I start my ARC journey.

The social media handbook was incredibly helpful in starting my Bookstagram/Booktok journey. It was clear, concise and easy to read. It has prompted me to make some changes to my profiles and posting habits. It has also given me some great ideas to implement. Overall this guide was incredibly informative and helpful.

There were so many good tips in this handbook! I only started truly writing book reviews last year and only started my Booktok account in August of 2024. I am still very new to the book influencing scene. I am doing some of these tips but many ideas and thoughts were new to me. Excited to put them to use! Thank you to We Are Bookish and NetGalley for this free guide!!

This was so helpful! Have great insight on how to get started with NetGalley! The audiobook review tip page was incredibly useful for me as I am new to ALC reviews. I also appreciate the guidance and support provided by this handbook! NetGalley truly went above and beyond by creating and providing this tool for reviewers! I highly recommend.

Very helpful with posting on my social media and with posting reviews on there and other platforms. Descriptive on the dos and don’ts with planning content, accessibility, using canva, and using hashtags. Will be something I will forever be able to look back in for tips.

I wish this was available when I was first starting out! Or maybe it was and I didn’t see it? Who knows. I love how simple this is! It explains everything and give great tips while not being overwhelming. I feel that’s the most important key here. I TRIED to do research when I was first starting out (I’m still fairly newER) and was overwhelmed with the information I was finding everywhere. This handbook compiles all of the key points in everything I researched and makes it easily comprehensible. I love this. If you’re brand new to all of this. Start here if you can!

This is another super helpful and valuable toolkit for reviewers on NetGalley. I have revisited it multiple times in the past few days and will continue to do such for the foreseeable future. Even if you only post on GoodReads, this will still be incredibly useful.
