This was very helpful to get acquainted with NetGalley. I am still new to reviewing books and having started to read advanced copies of books, I knew I needed to get a little better at how I present my views on those books to both help the authors and share honest thoughts with potential readers.
This gave examples of how to write more meaningful reviews and how to use NetGalley as a whole. Very helpful and I will reference this often as I work on my reviewing.

I really enjoyed reading this comprehensive guide to using NetGalley's online platform. I have been a user of the site for several years, but made a goal for 2025 to improve my feedback ratio to hopefully get approved for upcoming new releases I am really excited about. I thought the examples of bio information, the tips for requests and approvals, and the helpful tips were great for a newbie or an experienced user of NetGalley. I would highly recommend anyone read through this as a refresher on best practices as a reviewer!

NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit is a complete and concise overview of the NetGalley interface. New users can benefit from profile tips, a site naviagation guide, and review examples, while more seasoned users can delve deeper using the hyperlinks to more specific resources. It's easy to read and visually appealing. I'm sure I'll continue referring to this toolkit as I explore NetGalley's features.

I was looking for guidance on how to best utilise my NetGalley account and came across this guide.

It is well presented, easy to read and provides a step by step guide on how to use Netgalley. The bio writing section was of particular interest to me as I had no idea on what was expected in that box, so I found it to be very useful.

I would recommend to any fellow new users!

I'm assuming this one doesn't need an actual review, since it's a resource for reviewers. I did find it to be a wonderful resource.
