This is an awesome and thorough guide that tells you everything you need to know to get started both on NetGalley and on social media platform book communities. I was blown away by the perfect summary of relevant info in this guide. Everyone in bookish communities online who writes reviews would benefit from reading this.

Thank you! I am still working through my list of books and am new to reviewing so I appreciate all the help I can get!
I hope as I start reviewing more books that I will improve in my reviews.

This was actually a great introduction to reviewing and helped me a lot with figuring out how to format my reviews going forward.
This book is a guideline for what publishers might be looking for, as well as outlining how to do different types of reviews.

I highly recommend reading this before frequently reviewing on netgalley or any social media site.

Great little toolkit to help NetGalley users to get started. This was easy to use and had some good tips. I recommend this for any first time NetGalley users like myself for some advice on where to start.

This is a great resource for anyone new to the world of book reviewing or in my case, Bookstagram. Packed with great, practical advice & tips, I can see myself referring back to this quite often! Thank you Netgalley and We are Bookish for this handy guide.

Really really nice looking ! Easy to read and understand. Full of tips and steps to follow. I guess now I just have to do it properly, like learning how to write a proper review without making everyone bored. Anyway I will recommend this if you want to take you book sharing to another level :)

I loved this toolkit! There were a ton of super helpful tips that I plan on incorporating into my social media. Definitely recommend reading this if you are new to NetGalley.

Helpful leaflet for new reviewers. This isn't a book but some tips for how to review books. I found the section on how to review books that you don't like to be especially helpful. The rest of this review is simply a filler because a review must be 100 characters long, lol.

A most helpful book in ways to write succinct reviews without being boring or giving away spoilers. Was nice to skim through it prior to writing my first review for my first request approval.

Thanks for putting this together. This is really helpful. I appreciate all the do's and don'ts and the visual format.

This is a great toolkit, especially for new NetGalley users or people who are interested in starting a dedicated book review social media account. A lot of the tips were things I'd already figured out through using NetGalley and being on Goodreads and Bookstagram, but I would have loved this when I was just starting out and it's great to have this guide with everything all in one place if I need to refer back to anything!

Extremely helpful. Loved seeing someone put words to what I've been intuitively sensing on my socials. Great to have an action plan. Will refer back to this periodically.
