NetGalley's Social Media Handbook is essential reading for Bookstagrammers (like me! @sarahreadshere), Booktokers, and everyone in between. If you're interested in talking about books on social media or even just joining communities to follow along, this guide has all kinds of detailed information about how to set up accounts, find likeminded groups and reviewers, how to protect your privacy online, and more. It covers the most talked about platforms and smaller channels, even covering blogging and newsletter options. I highly recommend downloading this and saving it to refer to as you start your online book reading/reviewing journey.

this social media guide is a great resource for new book reviewers looking to get started with social media, and seasoned users who want to elevate their content. The chapters are platform specific for Instagram, TikTok, or Goodreads. This has a lot of useful links to help grow your online presence. I will definitely be using many of these tips.

A comprehensive guide that gives tips, Do’s and Don’t specifically for book reviewers who use social platforms. A great reminder for those who are experienced to those just starting out. They even give tips on how to stage your photographs! A useful guide overall!

A strong comprehensive guide for anyone beginning a "bookish" social media account. As an experienced user, I may have hoped for a bit more "nitty-gritty" details, like how to get followers or how to monetize my business. Still, I find this handbook essential for anyone starting out!

I just love how everything is curated to the need of creators. I like the categorisation of every platform like instagram, tiktok, youtube.
It helped to find the aspect we are looking for and focus on that part.
Also for multimplatform creators it has ways on how to repurpose the content to attain maximum engagement.
The tools of engagement like bookstagram 101 helped a lot on what to create and where to focus.
This was definitely a must handbook to creators out there

In this bite-sized book, you learn all about the different book sites there are to choose from, and how to use them effectively.

There's tips on crafting and polishing your reviews, finding the best platform for you, content planning, and how to connect well with others in the bookish world.

This book is quite helpful whether you're a newbie or a seasoned blogger and reviewer.

Thanks to the publisher We Are Bookish for this complimentary e-book I received to review. I was not required to write a positive review, and the thoughts above are my own.
