Great insight, tips and tricks for social media, especially if you are new to the game. Also wonderful methodology for setting up successfully across different platforms.

This was the first resource I consulted when getting started on NetGalley. While I still have a lot to learn, the tips and tricks from this guide helped me tremendously as I’m working on expanding my bookish social media presence..

I like seeing the recommendations for social media. It has really helped me in with my booktok account and makes it simpler. I like how there are picture as well to make it easier to understand. Thank you!

I wish I had something like this when I first started out on Bookstagram! It's a really good introduction to using bookish social media across platforms. Information is up to date too, realistic, and considers accessibility too. It also covers netiquette, so with this there is no excuse not to get chatting about books!

I didn't realize We Are Bookish had so many different tools and kits available - I was so excited to stumble across more of them today! This handbook actually has tons of helpful tips and info that would definitely help anyone that is just getting started or someone who has been on social media for a while. I only utilize certain platforms but this handbook jumps into just about all the big ones which is appreciated! I have been on bookstagram in particular for a while but as I am getting more involved with arc reviewing and joining publisher teams in some capacity, having a refresher or some important tips was so helpful. A trending topic lately has been the FTC gifted/review copy disclosure for US readers which a lot of newer reviewers don't seem to know. Long review short, this handbook was well put together, helpful, and a great resource for new and old social users!

There are some great tips in here, and it's always nice to get a reminder of what to do to not only get more exposure but to help authors get more readers!

Wonderful resource for those learning how to be better at reviewing books and using social media to do so!

As a new user on NetGalley and a fairly new reviewer this is so helpful! I will definitely be using this for all my social media and will come back to it when I need it! I appreciate the time and work that went into this

Thank you to Netgalley for complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review

Thank-you for the handbook. It was beneficial to see which platforms work best for us. I have done a love of social media marketing research and this provided information that was still new to me.

Good resource for someone just starting out as a bookish content creator...I mostly focused on the bookstagram tips to see if there was anything else that could help me. Thank you for the information.

It’s not just a great resource for beginners who are about to dive into the world of book reviewing—it’s also incredibly useful for authors who want to understand how social media works and how to connect with their audience.

A very useful and informative guide for reviewing books on various social media platforms.
I feel it's just what I need to refresh my reviews/posts.
I had a quick read through it but I'm sure I will consult it again and incorporate some of the suggestions/tips in future posts..

If you are new to book social media or a veteran, this is a wonderful resource! Tips for how to format reviews based on platform, photo editing, and proper etiquette on reviewing ARCs was extremely resourceful.

This handbook is perfect for Bookstagrammers! It's got a lot of easy-to-use features and gives good suggestions as to how to handle ARCs. I definitely recommend it!
