NetGalleys Book Advocate toolkit is a short yet informative guide how to get started with NetGalley reviews.

As someone who created an account without knowing anything about NetGalley, I very much valued this packet. I feel like I am ready to go with a refreshed bio and better perspective of reviews.

I would recommend to anyone jumping into NetGalley for the first time!

As someone who's very new to the ARC process on Netgalley, I found this toolkit to be very helpful! It offers easy to follow guidelines on everything Netgalley, such as setting up your profile, writing reviews, and the importance of feedback ratios. Not once while reading, did I feel lost about anything. I feel more confident now to start requesting ARCs! Highly, recommend this if you're just starting out on the platform

I am a new to NetGalley and reviewing advance reader copies. This book provides a ton of information to effectively utilize the site, enabling me to read more and share my thoughts with publishers. There are also lots of built in links to additional resources to learn even more about the topics you’re curious about.

This title is well organized and the infographic style makes it easy to absorb a lot of helpful information quickly. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in learning more about NetGalley, advance copies, and/or reviewing books.

Thanks to We Are Bookish for the DRC! #BookAdvocateToolkit #NetGalley
