The NetGalley Book Advocate Toolkit is a fantastic resource, especially for those new to NetGalley or looking for a quick refresher. The eye-catching graphics make it engaging, and it's easy to read and understand. This short guide answers common questions and offers great tips for making your profile better, as well on how to write constructive and effective reviews, making it a handy tool
This was a beneficial guide for a first-time Net Galley user! I was a little nervous about signing up to give reviews on books, but this guide helped me feel more confident!
This toolkit is great to help those that wish to review books. It provides good recommendations of how and what to include in the review. Also, it gives good reminders to those that have reviewed for a while to help improve their reviews. The table of contents makes it easy to find what you are looking for from requesting books to improving your profile to how to DNF. Many of the tips have links to longer articles from We are Bookish which is very helpful. I was hoping for more about the Social Media Toolkit and hope it comes out soon. If you wish to be a reviewer or improve what you are already doing, I recommend this toolkit.
This was nicely done and had some good information for new NetGalley users! Props to the graphics team as the pages were eye catching and easy to read.
The NetGalley Book Advocate Toolkit is a concise and practical resource for anyone looking to enhance their book reviewing skills and connect more effectively with publishers. I appreciated the clear, actionable tips on how to articulate your interests to publishers. The section on writing effective reviews is equally valuable, offering guidance on crafting feedback that is both constructive and engaging. I am looking forward to the extended edition, which promises to include a social media toolkit.
As always very informative, I love the graphics. I am constantly impressed by netgalley and their helpfulness when it comes to information on how to better my presence on their website.
Overall, I recommend this guide to new book reviewers who are serious about providing useful feedback to publishers and authors via NetGalley.
Love that I just discovered this! For someone who is just getting started on their reviewer journey, this resource is extremely helpful and easily walks you though all aspects of using NetGalley, marketing yourself to publishers, and writing effective reviews.
I love NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit. It is well-organized, and I will return to it often. I feel that this will be often updated, and I look forward to the "coming soon" section. I have been on NetGalley for a while, and I learned new things from this toolkit, plus will make changes to my bio due to the suggestions in this guide. I know many people question if selecting “WILL NOT GIVE FEEDBACK” affects your rating/ makes it so you can never get to 100%, so I wish that would have been answered. But that is my only complaint! This will be the perfect start to a new NetGalley member and it was great for me, too!
This was a nice little guide! I really appreciated the tips on how to build a more appealing profile. I do wish that it included a bit more advice on how to write a compelling review and social media etiquette. Still, this was a nice refresher!
Helpful book for everyone using netgalley on how to give feedback and increase your account and likeness of being approved by publishers for ARCs.
I appreciated this book. Thiscbook helped mecwith some of the new areas in NetGalley which i occasionally have issues with. 😊
Thank you We Are Bookish for this updated toolkit. It helps to look through all the great advice occasionally.
I wish I had come across this Toolkit as soon as I started reviewing books—great examples and guidelines. I recommend it to anyone starting their NetGalley journey.
As I'm a newbie to NetGalley this was a very helpful tool for me! I will no doubt refer to it again at some point. I didn't realise I would have to review it. I thought it was just a tool for new people.
This would be a great tool for any Net Galley user. Unfortunatly it would not download .I attempted to download it three devices and it would not work Am sure its a useful. tool.
This is for the beginning Net Galley member or one who has been a member for a while. I loved all the tips of how to write reviews and how we should keep our profile bio updated. I will be using this Toolkit for a long while. Thank you @NetGalley and @WeAreBookish for the ARC for #NetGalleysBookAdvocateToolkit.
Thank you very much for offering this Toolkit. It gave me new ideas and inspiration. I will consult it once in a while.
The information is laid out in a very helpful and succinct way. Straight to the point. They clearly know their audience: people who have too many books on our TBR piles and therefore don't have enough time to read lengthy manuals with info that isn't important ;)
I like the updated version better than the original one. I feel like it covers more ground. The embedded links are also very usefull. It's a must read for both Netgalley newbies and experts.
A short, handy guide for new-comers to the reviewing game with lots of tips that even a seasoned pro wouldn't think of. I love that NetGalley is producing things like this and hope they do more!
Very interesting and informative! A must for planning out how to best utilize NetGalley and get the most out of it.
