This was such a helpful guide! Other than the fact that this guide covered helpful tips navigating and starting a NetGalley account, this guide took it to the next level by adding tips and tricks that NetGalley provides. I didn't know about the weekly checklist email that I didn't know about before. The book review tips organized in do and don't format provided a quick overview on everything one might need to get started. I never thought about naming a book's audience before so I will be doing that going forward! Big kudos to We Are Bookish for compiling this guide to NetGalley!
NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit is a concise and colorful guide to all users of NetGalley; new or old. It includes everything you need to know on using NetGalley, from the site's interface to tips on writing better reviews and getting more approvals. The colorful toolkit with cute doodles and pastel colors made the reading experience so much more fun; rather than having to scroll down pages of boring text with a white background. I thought I was just going to skim through this but I actually read through and learned new things! Highly recommend to NetGalley users.
Great little informative booklet to assist you give feedback on ARC's. I have been a member of Netgalley for a while so I am comfortable navigating but this would suit someone starting out on their journey. Was handy to check over and update information in bio.
Such a great resource! This is indispensable for all reviewers, especially folks that are new. Do yourself a favor and read this entire document before you start your NetGalley journey, it'll make everything so much easier.
I always appreciate these publications from We Are Bookish. They provide great insights into what publishers prefer from reviewers, in addition to refreshers on how to use Netgalley. Thank you.
Very helpful! Love the tips and tricks NetGalley gives us as a resource.
I will continue to read them as long as they provide them
This is an overview about what you need to know about using NetGalley.
It is presented very nicely through infographics. It was a very helpful read as someone just starting out on NetGalley. Thank you to the authors and publishers for providing this resource!

This is the perfect tool to help you master the art of NetGalley. So many helpful tidbits to getting you that perfect score and getting all of the requests you want. If I have any questions I can look back on this kit.
The Book Advocate Toolkit was super helpful while starting out with NetGalley. It helped me organize my thoughts and structure reviews so the content was relevant. I'm sure I'll reference it again and again. I appreciated it linked back to several resources on the website.
This guide really helped me because I had no clue what I was doing. I still don’t know but that’s ok because I can always go back and look in the guide book.
It was a pretty simple explanation of the system. Hopefully after I complete a few books, I will be able to get approved for something g. Looking forward to the social account how to. I’d like to see what they feel will work well for reviews.
NetGalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit is a guide for the website regarding setting up your profile, review writing, how to use the site, and other tips and tricks. It is set up in a very accessible and easy-to-understand way which makes it great for beginners. As someone new to the site who had no idea about these unspoken “rules”, this was a huge help. I will certainly be using these tips, some of which I didn’t know existed, like publisher approval preferences being available.
There are also interacting links within the toolkit to provide more information, which is great because it’s available to you, but doesn’t overwhelm you by being in the actual ebook. I would recommend this toolkit to every person getting started with NetGalley.
Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with this ebook.
This toolkit has been very helpful for fellow NetGalley users in knowing how to manage our accounts here. Personally, as a reviewer that's starting out, it informs me of everything I need to know in submitting reviews and requesting ARCs. I thank the team for giving us an opportunity the guidance offered by this toolkit for our future reading endeavors.
A great resource for readers getting started and what to put in your reviews as well as navigating the website.
Thank you NetGalley for the insightful how to guide for using this platform! This was a very helpful compilation of info to help both new and old members in the crafting of an effective NetGalley profile.
Super helpful guide. This helped me to understand how to write a good review. I had been wondering how I can write a review where I didn't like the book. This helped to give guidance there on those "did not finish" books.
This was definitely helpful. I went through every page and used all the information to make my profile better. I liked the idea of setting an alert to keep updating my profile. I also feel like it answered all the questions i always felt would be stupid to ask.
I enjoy that netgalley is trying to help its reviewers do better jobs and get books they want.
This toolkit offers a great introduction to the world of NetGalley, as well as ARCs and DRCs. It's short, but packs quite a bit of useful info; some of it I already knew, but this still served as a helpful reminder. I will most likely go back and read it again from time to time.
Thanks NetGalley and We Are Bookish!
Thank you Netgalley and We are Bookish for this valuable and concise manual on how to write a book review on Netgalley.
