As someone completely new to writing reviews this toolkit is extremely helpful. This toolkit really laid out what I need to do in order to start off successful. Thank you NetGalley!
Lots of great tips! Most of the intro material such as setting up an account and requesting titles was already familiar. Would appreciate more detail on interpreting denials (most are pretty generic and vague but specific examples or prompts for info to include) as well as possible prompts to use when writing reviews.
Loved reading this guide! NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit is written by NetGalley's blog team, We Are Bookish. The guide gave an thorough but easy-to-follow overview of how to use NetGalley to share reviews. I loved the resources on how to share reviews across different platforms, including tips such as hashtags and photo editing apps. Highly recommend to any readers hoping to get better at advocating for books!
Thanks for this helpful guide, Netgalley. I found it concise and well laid out; I felt like the in for graphics made the information easy to take in. I was surprised at how much it covered - the tips for what to keep in mind for each platform were a nice addition. This is a book I expect to refer back to when I’m writing future reviews
A really useful guide and definitely something that I’ll utilise to improve my profile.
I like that it’s broken down into easy to digest chunks and doesn’t suggest lots of really elaborate activity.
Absolutely love this toolkit!
Thank you so much for the great resources!
The formatting is great across platforms too so very easy to use!
Thank you NetGalley for giving a comprehensive and thoughtful guide for those who are starting out reviewing. This was well structured, easy to follow and demonstrated the main reviewing and feedback ratio objectives that reviewers should have.
It is a helpful 'know how' for anyone starting out their journey on this platform.
A helpful guide for both people new and old to the book reviewing/book influencing scene. It is full of many good resources that I found to be useful.
This was a really helpful collection of tips to read, some of these were ones that I hadn't considered before and I would recommend this to anyone who is new to Netgalley and even those who have been on here for a while
Great book with such helpful tips and tricks to make your profile and reviews better than before.
It was a super easy to follow book that is packed with helpful information and I really have taken some new things I’ve learned and will start applying them to my reviews for sure.
5 Stars!!
This was extremely helpful if you are first starting out in reviewing books! Give it a read for some great tips!
Thank you NetGalley!
This is a great place to start as a beginner and has a lot of tips if you are looking for a guide on where to start. I will definitely use this as a jumping off point to start my journey as a reviewer.
Definitely read this Book Advocate Toolkit if you are new to NetGalley or writing book reviews in general. It is informative, helpful, and a great place to start your ARC journey.
Used this to set up a dedicated bookstagram and will be referring back to this when creating content for booktok and bookstagram
Thanks to Netgalley for providing the free copy in return for an honest review.
There's a lot of simple advice in here, but like all simple advice, it's only simple if you already knew it, and a lot of the things in here, are not things that new reviewers would know, certainly not even me, and I've been reviewing things for a few years now.
Whether you're a beginner or veteran reviewer, there'll be things in here that can help you improve how you do things, well recommended.
Definitely read this if you’re just starting out on NetGalley. There are a lot of helpful tips in a really easy way to read and understand. I think the social media section was especially helpful because it was broken down by platform and specific to what information publishers will be looking for. It’s a quick read too.
i am trying to better my netgalley account as i made it a few years ago and just simply forgot about it. now that i am becoming more of an avid reader (thanks to my new kindle) i am working harder at improving my feedback ratio score. this guide will not only help my on netgalley but on my social medias as well. i love reading and this has already gave me great advice.
Provides a lot of helpful tips when it comes to composing reviews! A resource I will definitely return to multiple times for reference.
Very helpful with some useful tips for beginners who are just starting out on Netgalley and with social media.
Great book covering ways you can promote the books you really enjoyed on different social media sites. It's a good place to start for those new to NetGalley or promoting books.
