This was wonderful advice to anyone who is interested in starting a book reviewing journey in and outside of NetGalley! I appreciate all the tips and information that was provided!!

Good updates were made to this toolkit. I especially liked the flow chart graphs that help when you are stuck or unsure what your next steps should be when reviewing/DNFing a book.

10/10 very useful for reviewing! As a new reviewer on NetGalley, I wasn’t sure what publishers/authors would be looking for but this guide was extremely helpful. Thank you NetGalley for creating this!

Your kits are always thoughtful and offer great tips even for seasoned reviewers.. Thanks for supporting reviews & authors alike.

This was an excellent tool you provided that will assist me in providing feedback to authors on their writing. Thank you so much.

There is a new version! I am ready to enhance my reviews, studying now! On to greater reviews! Easy tips to implement immediately.

Great resource to assist with utilizing and sharing netgalley books. I appreciated the insight and easy way to utilize this tool. It helped me feel more confident in sharing.

Thank you for the updated Book Advocate Toolkit. I has valuable informatioln and I will continue to keep coming back for reference.

Some really useful advice! It is great for new reviewers and those who have been at this for a while. Covering everything from how to populate your profile to tips about the actual reviews. Highly recommended!

Thank you for creating this document! A quick read for beginners. It’s a helpful guide in navigating the site, requesting, and reviewing. There’s some features and icons I didn’t know about. The publisher approval preferences section was great to learn about to help create a profile.

Extremely helpful and informative. There were so many things I learned from reading the toolkit as well as linked articles.

This is basic information. It could be helpful information if someone is brand new to how to get the word out and what to do on and with netgalley.

A handy tool to use for reviewing books on NetGalley. Will definitely prove useful to anyone looking to improve the writing of their reviews.

The NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit is essential reading for new users. This document has easy-to-read tips and tricks that helped me set up my NetGalley profile and find my first book to review.
I love how the toolkit explains concepts, such as the types of book access, the feedback ratio, and how to write good book reviews. I appreciate how the creative use of images, infographics, and text formatting helps me digest key information better. Two of my favorite pieces of advice from the toolkit: avoiding the temptation to go on a request spree and remembering to visit the publisher's page and review their Approval Preferences.
This toolkit is essential reading for anyone who wants to master the basics of using NetGalley. Reviewing the toolkit is a good way to practice writing a book review. Now I'm looking forward to reading and reviewing my first NetGalley ARC.

A useful guide to get started with book reviews! I’ve recently joined NetGalley and, although I’ve been writing book reviews on retailer platforms for some time, it was useful to gain more insights about what publishers would like to see in our reviews.

A very helpful booklet for book advocates accross many different platforms, it's something that proves a useful tool whether you're just starting out in the bookish sphere or if you've been around for a while and want to know how you can further improve your accounts.
I really like the fact that each section is short and straight to the point so I can easily come back to it whenever I need a refresher on reviewing tips or post designing.
I highly recommend this book to all book advocates!

Great resource. This is a great tool to have if someone wants to know more about NetGalley. I learned more about NetGalley from this resource and feel I can improve on my reviews. Thank you for making this for us.

An excellent guidebook for both those new to NetGalley as well as those who've been reviewing for a while. Great pointers from creating an engaging profile to writing a fair and informative book review. A quick read -- this small guidebook is filled with great, useful advice.
Thank you to #NetGalley and #WeAreBookish for providing #BookAdvocateToolKit for reviewers.

Very helpful! Thank you for putting this together. I'll be referring back to this as changes are made.

Very good book to get the hang of how Net Galley works and to understand how to write helpful reviews!
