This handbook is very helpful for spreading the word about books on NetGalley. it has already come in handy and I know it will continue to be an important resource as time goes on and I write more reviews.

The Book Advocate Toolkit is a wonderful resource for new NetGalley users. It clearly lays out the process of creating a profile, and requesting and reviewing ARCs. The book also explains the metrics that are used to assess performance on the site and gives tips for increasing the likelihood of receiving future ARCs. I particularly appreciated the review formatting and style tips, which I've incorporated into my own practice. I am sure that The Book Advocate Toolkit will remain a helpful guide for best practices as I build my presence on NetGalley. Thank you for sharing this resource!

Thanks for sharing this toolkit with lots of great advice for writing reviews. This toolkit is great for people who are new to reviewing and who have been doing it a while but need a refresher. Thanks for giving us such good tools to help us be successful review writers.

Great tool! I didn't get a chance to fully participate this year (didn't see it in time), but maybe next?!

I found the NetGalley Book Advocate Toolkit super helpful! It gives clear advice on writing book reviews, choosing the right platforms, and planning content. I especially liked the tips on content planning and review etiquette, which made organizing my reviews much easier. I think it's a great starting point if you’re new to book reviewing or looking to build your online presence.

This is such a great booklet! I found lots of tips that will be extremely helpful. Just wish that it was something that was more immediately tagged for members to find. I only found out when I accidentally typed NetGalley into the goodreads search bar instead of opening a new tab and typing it (it was one of those days). It would be very helpful to new members if they were told right away to search for the handbooks.

I’m very pleased and thankful with how useful this was!! I’ve learned a lot and I loved the tips about how to deal with readers guilt.

NetGalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit is a handy guide that helps you learn how to navigate everything on the website. It will be a good quick reference tool for when users forget where to find something or how to access a tool.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! This toolkit helped me tremendously and I will continue to refer back to it. The biggest and most immediate help was telling me how to subscribe to the weekly checklist, that is going to be such a big help!!

As always, Netgalley does not disappoint when it comes to providing the best resources for its readers and reviewers! Thank you for putting together this amazing resource that helps you tailor your profile, helps you with writing reviews in different formats and to different audiences, and for helping you to improve your feedback ratio and read more of what you enjoy!

This Toolkit offers valuable insight on the workings of NetGalley. This site in general is user-friendly, but this toolkit breaks down the components of the site, and provides important information for this site. When I first started NetGalley, I had so many questions! This answered all of them, and provided external links for more information on topics. I even learned there's a dark mode?? Definitely turning that option on! I highly recommend this Toolkit for any new or pre-existing NetGalley reviewers of all membership types.

This is a great and short book about navigating this site, It was very colourful and easy to read. I learned so much about the website and the orange pencil!

This toolkit is such a great resource for the Netgalley Newbie or the seasoned pro. It’s informative and easy to follow and had a lot of good tips. Highly recommend this as a a book to keep to refer back to when needed.

NetGalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit is an outstanding resource for anyone starting on NetGalley or as a refresher for seasoned users. This guide is packed with valuable information that makes navigating the NetGalley platform much more straightforward and boosts confidence in using its features.

As the organizer of NetGalley November—a month-long event on my BookTube channel focused on reading NetGalley ARCs—this toolkit has been invaluable. It’s become my go-to resource for introducing newcomers to NetGalley, helping me confidently answer questions, and offering others the knowledge they need to start their own NetGalley journeys.

Thank you to NetGalley, and We Are Bookish for providing this practical, daily resource for the community!

Found this really helpful and digestible. Lots of tangible tips that are easy to put into action straight away.

This manual was brief, engaging, and informative. Thank you, NetGalley, for this manual! I’ve been reviewing for months, but just checking this manual brought me answers to questions I’ve had recently.

Thanks for this book. It was a well laid out and easy to follow book. The tips were great. It really helps to know what publishers are looking for. I have now made some changes and found that I am definitely getting more approvals. It would have been helpful to have had this a while ago when I first began to do reviews for NetGalley. I recommend that anyone starting off on their reviewer journey start with this book. It will get you started on the right foot.

A really informative and comprehensive guide to using netgalley full of tips and tricks. I found out some really useful information like types of reviewers, how to build the perfect bio and what different areas of netgalley are for.

This is a helpful guide for new NetGalley users to become acclimated to the process of book requesting and reviewing. The PDF was helpful to develop an understanding of what the publishers may be looking for when selecting reviewers and how to adapt your profile to match their needs. They also provide a simple formula for crafting reviews if the reader is new to the process of writing. Would recommend to anyone getting started with reviewing through NetGalley!

This was a helpful guide for reviewing books for NetGalley. I liked the examples and the additional recommendations for reviewing a book that I did not finish.
