This is a very helpful tool for those reviewing on NetGalley. Thank you , We are Bookish, for creating this packet!

Thank you for putting this together, NetGalley! The information is really helpful. I know this is not a typical book for review but, even so, it is appreciated.

I recently discovered NetGalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit even though I’ve been on NetGalley for a few months now. I found this guide to be helpful, though I wish I knew it existed when I first started. I liked that the guide is short and sweet and easy to read. There are some great tips on how to review the books you read and also lots of good information on the social media platforms to use to share your reviews along with tips for each. I would have liked to see more information and guidance on the timing of sharing reviews. I know the publishers sometime provide their preference for when to publish a review but that information isn’t always included in the approval email. Overall, I found this to be a helpful tool for NetGalley users.

This was a beautifully designed colorful & helpful guide to using NetGalley. I loved it. Every nonfiction book should be formatted like this! Thank you “We are Bookish” for this helpful book.

This is a great guide for anyone looking to receive advanced copies of books. It explains the best way to increase your chances of getting advance copies and how to write good reviews. Thanks for the tips!!

Excellent compilation of useful tips to review books on social media platforms.
Everyone must read and pay attention to every minute detail provided by netgalley in this tool kit.

Overall, a must read for new netgalley members.

This was a really helpful guide for a new Netgalley user, like myself! It contains easy to follow tips and it didn't contain an overwhelming amount of information. I'm definitely going to use these tips in the future!

Helpful resource I wish I had came across earlier. Easy to follow tips and not overwhelming with information,

This is a really gelpful guide for getting started on netgalley, covering all the basics and then some. There are lots of tips for different online platforms and ways of sharing reviews, both on netgalley itself or a personal blog as on platforms like tiktok, instagram and youtube. I've definitely picked up some tips and tricks that i will be using in the future.

This toolkit was extremely helpful. I found a lot of tips that I wish I could have learned here instead of learning the hard way. For example, tips about keeping your feedback rate up above 80% by not over-requesting. I'm sure we're all guilty of that at one point or another but crawling out of that hole is difficult.

I found a lot of good tips about writing helpful reviews and posting them to social media as well as on NetGalley.

I also appreciated that is isn't super long and the graphics used keep it interesting, rather than feeling like you're reading a lecture.

Every reviewer should read this before they start requesting, just to give themselves the best start possible.

Sorry I accidentally reviewed a different book in here by mistake...I've corrected this on Goodreads.

Corrected review:

"Whoops accidentally reviewed the advice document for NetGalley thinking I was submitting one for another book. I've since removed the review for the other book.

May as well just add that this is a really helpful toolkit on how to write reviews (both positive and critical) and how to manage these reviews on various social media platforms.

My faux pas has nothing to do with the advice in this manual."

This has fantastic points, tips & tricks to boost and better yourself as a reviewer. Thank you to We Are Bookish for creating a template for those wanting to succeed in reviewing.

Really helpful and useful toolkit - even if you think you know everything there is to know! I learned new tips and hints and have good insight now in using Canva (which I hadn't realised has many templates!) as well as other photo tips.

Great handbook to get started on Netgalley, thanks! It gives plenty of information on all different social media and online platforms for those who would like to set up a blog for reviews, how to market themselves, tech specifics and a lot more.
