Another well written and practical guide from NetGalley on supporting publishers and authors by writing good reviews. I really appreciate the support that NetGalley gives to its reviewers and their activities to create community. I’m proud to be a NetGalley reviewer!

NetGalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit has been extremely helpfull. I used the tips within to update my profile page. I have been using NetGalley since 2016, so you could say I should know it all. However, I was still able to learn a few things by reading this. So if you are new to NetGalley or you are an old pro, you can still find some useful tips within this resource. Definitely pick it up if you are a NetGalley Member.

This updated Book Advocate toolkit is a must-read for anyone new to NetGalley. It's got some fantastic tips and guidance for ensuring that you get the best out of the site but its' also great if you have been a member for a while and just need a refresh.

I have been with NetGalley for several years now and I really valued this reminder of how reviews should be structured and how to best position yourself to be approved for advanced digital copies from publishers.

This is a great idea for any NetGalley user - old or new. It explains everything really well and I like that they updated it to include the newer additions. I also like that they added what to do for dnfs.

I'll definitely keep this on my shelf and hope to see even more updates to it whenever NetGalley does something great. I also like that it's nice and bright and a lot of cool designs all over that kept my attention - I'm glad it just wasn't blocks of text.

This toolkit is perfect for both new and old reviewers. I have been reviewing Netgalley since 2013, and this kit mentioned a few things I should be doing to keep my account relevant to publishers who may look at it before approving me for a book I have requested. I love how easy it was to click on links to get more in-depth information on interesting topics. I highly recommend this to reviewers new to NetGalley and reviewers who have been here for a few years or more.

Thank you for creating the Toolkit! I think the toolkit is simple and easy to ready and following along. I also really like all the snapshot that were added for a visual. I am a visual person with reading so this helped my brain process the content better. :)
