Thank you so much to the We Are Bookish Publisher and NetGalley for giving me a copy of this!

Thank you for the copy it really helped me out in improvising my do's and don't.

It's really thoughtful of netgalley to provide one

I really wish I had this when I first signed up for NetGalley! The layout of information is eye-catching, easy to follow, and includes everything you need to know as a beginner!
Even though I've been using NetGalley for a little while, I found the guide for writing reviews helpful.

NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit is super helpful for if you're just starting to use NetGalley or maybe you just want a refresher. This is a nicely organized toolkit that really simplifies NetGalley. It starts off by telling you what NetGalley is while also helping you build your profile. Maybe you haven't updated your profile in a while and need a refresher on what to put there (ME!!) They help you out and even provide examples. It's super helpful and is very straight to the point.

I also really liked how they had a section dedicated to reviewing books. This is something I've found myself really stumbling on recently. I would constantly review books on my blog and then after taking a break during COVID, I haven't fully recovered on reviewing books. I find myself all over the place. They give you example of book reviews and even give you some dos and don'ts. Plus they had extra info that would guide you to the We Are Bookish blog where they'd discuss certain topics. It's all very organized and easy to absorb.

I'm really loving all that NetGalley is doing to help reviewers. I really should listen to their tips about not constantly requesting books. Sometimes it's nice to give yourself a break and catch up on your up and coming earcs while also going back and reading your backlist ones. Plus I love how they had a section about DNFing. It was nice for them to remind us that yes, it's okay to DNF a book. Plus, maybe you weren't feeling it in that moment but you can always go back to it. They mentioned they'll be coming out with a guide about social media. I'm really looking forward to that especially since I've been trying to get back into my bookish Instagram account.

*Thank you so much to the We Are Bookish Publisher and NetGalley for giving me a free copy of this in exchange for my honest opinion.*

The perfect starter kit for any new reviewer on NetGalley! Lots of great tips and tricks, with useful guidelines and feedback for creating a strong profile for faster approvals. Thanks NetGalley!
