I found this to be very helpful. I was able to pick up some tips for my profile and how to write the reviews

This was incredibly helpful while editing my profile to be more professional, succinct, and desirable to publishers who may consider me as an ARC reader. I'm super grateful for such an informative guide as I was a little lost on how to improve my profile.

Thank you, Netgalley for being so helpful and making sure we get the most out of this site. This guide was incredibly helpful, easy to read and to look at. Incredibly helpful.

Great resource if you are new to Netgalley (or need a refresher). I found the tips and FAQ very helpful. Easily laid out and easy to reference a particular topic or if you need help on it all.

Need help getting started with NetGalley, here's a great resource book for you. You'll have a better understanding of how to fill out your profile and get started requesting new books to add to your library.

I think this is a fabulous resource for reviewers - especially those who may be new to reviewing or getting their feedback out into the world. I found it to be full of useful tips!

Over the course of the year, I'd figured out a number of these tips and tricks to navigating NetGalley. However, I wish I would have found this prior to getting started. Being the noob that I was I requested so many books up front and trashed my feedback rating. Actually, I'm still working on correcting that, 20 books are really no joke even as the pace I'm finishing them. Then a couple weren't the first book in a series and added to my list. That being said, I still learned things and hope to leave been reviews in the future.

This is such a helpful tool to take your advocating to the next level. My only wish is that is was downloadable on Kindle along with NetGalley App.

Thanks to the NetGalley for a copy to honestly review.

A helpful document with some great tools for new members and a great way to refresh if you have been with NetGalley for many years. Take the time to refresh your boi or improve your review it's always a great idea.

This is a great book to help reviewers get started on NetGalley, quick and easy to read. A must read for all new and existing reviewers. Highly recommend. Thanks to We Are Bookish for providing the title to read and review. All opinions are my own.

I found this guide to be really helpful.

I liked having something to refer to. It had been some time since I had considered by profile and the way I review books.

After reading, I update my profile and I now spend more time giving a considered review, rather than doing the immediate response type of review, i.e. this is what I think/feel straight after I finish reading it.

SOOOO helpful! I was able to be part of a launch team a few months back through NetGalley but I am just now exploring all there is here with reviewing books. I appreciate this quick guide to help me as I am apart of another book launch team. This guide would be helpful to anyone new to the platform. I will definitely be downloading the social media handbook next.

Helped in writing my first negative review. I gave a 3-star rating to a book that was the latest of a series of nine books. The characters from the first eight would be mentioned, but never filled out. It felt like I was reading a soap opera. I did not put that in the review. I did suggest in the review that the books be read in order.

Great food for thought. Plenty of helpful tips and for varied platforms. Looking forward to integrating them in to my posts. Thanks.

NeGalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit is everything you need to start your book reviewer journey. Easy to read. Insightful. Very helpful when getting started.

This was very helpful and I’m grateful to have it. I wish it was available as a resource separate from the rest of the other books available for reading and review. I signed up quite a while ago and was unsure how to best use NetGalley, so these kinds of guides would be really helpful in a separate onboarding/user guide.
