Thank you for sharing this toolkit! I liked how the information contained within was displayed and I think the graphics and presentation made information that could feel somewhat repetitive, obvious, or otherwise uninteresting (but important) material easily digestible. I also jotted down a few good tips that I hadn't considered after reading through the guide.

So you think you know how to be successful in Netfalley?
A great refresher even for veteran members like myself

I especially like the tips and hints

Thank you for the update. Even for us veteran NetGalley users a refresher is always helpful. The tools provided will help a lot.

There is always room for improvement in my craft of writing reviews and NetGalley offers the reader the best advice for creating spot on reviews and promoting books and authors.

This was a really good beginner's guide to using NetGalley but also completely appropriate as a refresher for longtime reviewers. It covers all aspects of using NetGalley, with informative graphics and really clear instructions to get the most out of your reviews and NetGalley profile.

Thanks for this updated version of the toolkit. I've been a NetGalley member for many years, but I thought it would be good to brush up on current policies and procedures. This was very helpful!

This was such a helpful toolkit that everyone in NetGalley can use. I discovered some tips that I never knew about but will be using them from now on.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for this resourceful toolkit.

This is really useful and informative. Nicely presented, too. I shall enjoy perusing it from time to time as a refresher. Thank very much for this.

This was such a helpful toolkit with a lot of tips and clear advice / explanations on how to use it! Thank you so much!

The Book Advocate ToolKit has a lot of great information included. I enjoyed the different tips and suggestions for having a successful NetGalley profile. It also gave me insight into some things that I did not already know, such as the correct way to DNF a book.

I am looking forward to using the ToolKIt as a continued reference when I am requesting and reviewing books on NetGalley. I am also excited to see what information will be included in the NetGalley Social Media ToolKit, when it is released.

This is a great guide and I immediately followed the tips to update my profile! The DNF diagram is particularly useful as DNFing is unavoidable at times. The tips for crafting a critical review is very practical and valuable too. Thank you for putting together this toolkit.

Regular readers of my posts have undoubtedly seen how often I thank NetGalley for an advance copy of a book. There are so many wonderful titles to request in a wide variety of genres. Often I see a book by a favorite author, while at others, I have the chance to discover something new. If my request for a book is approved, I will read that book. When I finish, I write a review on NetGalley and post to a variety of sites.

Sound interesting? Are you interested in learning more about NetGalley? Interested in being a reviewer? Or…are you a reviewer already and would like some tips? Either way this title is an excellent resource.

Many thanks to NetGalley for this title. All opinions are my own.

Thank you to NetGalley for creating this Toolkit.

This is so handy to read and have as a NetGalley reviewer as it can help build one's profile to the best it can be. This is good for both new members and members who have been using NetGalley for a while as it can act as a refresher.

A must-have guide for Netgalley beginners and experts alike!

This toolkit includes tips on what to put in your profile, how to connect the NetGalley shelf app and your Kindle to Netgalley, how to navigate NetGalley, the different types of book options (read now, widget, request, wish), and much more.

NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit contains all the information required to get started on NetGalley as well as answers to frequently asked questions. I thought the information was conveyed in a very clear and concise manner and I liked that the pages weren't text heavy. The formatting was great and made this very engaging. My favourite page was the flow diagram on what to do if you DNF (do not finish) a book as this is a question I have had in the past and one I have seen time and time again in various forums.

Overall this is a great overview of NetGalley and I'm very excited to read their Social Media Toolkit when it comes out!

Thanks for this toolkit. It has been really helpful when starting up my bookstagram account. I’ve also found the tips and tricks for writing reviews really helpful. I’m looking forward to putting it into action when I write my future reviews.

This is such a useful and beautifully formatted guide to NetGalley and advocating for books - with great book review tips and information about navigating NetGalley itself! We Are Bookish create wonderful resources and I’m very excited for the Social Media Guide which is apparently coming next :)

This is the perfect tool for a new reviewer such as myself, I worried it would be blocks of text but there was actually plenty of pictures and it was very colourful which made it feel less like a lesson.
This has given me many tips for reviews including some examples and has also given me ideas to make my profile look better.
Highly recommend and I think this should be something all new reviewers read.

This toolkit is helpful for newcomers to NetGalley, offering practical guidance on profile setup, platform navigation, enhancing approval odds, and writing constructive reviews for publishers and authors. When I first saw that it had 31 pages, I feared it would be filled with dense text. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find concise and visually appealing guidelines laid out neatly. I read it in five minutes. Thanks!

I found this very helpful for what to add to my profile to bette help my chances of being approved. It's also helpful for making sure I don't go on a spree of requesting books to keep my ratio high.
