Very helpful quite to netgalley, but I wish I could read it right after I registered on the platform, as navigation for new users wasn't very intuitive at the time.

This, as well as the social media toolkit, has been super helpful in getting started on NetGalley. Definitely something to check for updates and refer back to every now and then.

Thank you to We Are Bookish for this Toolkit! I found it very informative and helpful for how to formulate an in-depth review- I’m looking forward to being able to apply this to any copies for review that I may receive in future.

This guide provided by NetGalley was very helpful. As a new bookstagrammer the world of posting reviews and recommendations is still a little newer to me, so this “straight to the point” guide on how to correctly setup your profile and how to navigate the site was extremely helpful.

Thank you NetGalley for sharing this guide for book advocates! This is a very helpful manual for getting started as a reviewer on NetGalley. I appreciate the graphics and helpful screenshots of how to navigate NetGalley.

This toolkit was so helpful for understanding the different facets to NetGalley. It is clear and easy to understand, and I loved all the graphics. I will be referring to it often as I start my ARC reader journey.

A helpful, all-in-one place, toolkit to navigate your way on NetGalley! If you have been playing around and navigating the website's FAQ for some time, you likely won't find anything new (and chances are if you have found this resource, you kind of have?). But it's a useful one to keep handy and have all the important information in one document. I think it'd be really helpful to be able to access this, or at least some parts of it, before users sign up to NetGalley, because I certainly wasn't sure what I was doing or if I was their right audience when signing up!

The Book Advocate Toolkit was very helpful in showcasing what to highlight in my book reviews. I learned a lot about what publishers are looking for when receiving reviews for ARCs. I have been able to keep in mind that positive and negative feedback are both beneficial.

I am new to NetGalley and glad to have found this resource early in my journey! After reading through this pdf, I took the time to update my profile with new links and expand information in my bio. I hope this advice will help further my chances with future approvals. I also greatly appreciated the information on what makes a good review - particularly the Sandwich Method to combat “Reviewer’s Block.” Thank you NetGalley!

I think this should automatically be placed on every netgalley reader's shelf! This guide goes through the whole process, explaining what Netgalley is, what steps one should take to creating a profile, and how to navigate the site. I really felt like I learned a lot in this toolkit in a way that made sense without being overwhelming.
