What a short and concise guidebook for a beginner lke me. I’ve surely learnt something as small as how to provide review to staying organised in various social media platforms. The handbook provides sections for different platforms so I could focus on which platform that is relevant, with helpful external links that provide more detail explanation. Thank you We Are Bookish for such a helpful handbook!

This is a brief, clear guide to using social media for book reviews: an introduction to the platforms available and a guide to your first steps on the digital-savvy booklovers journey. Handy little guide for a newbie and some useful tips for those of us who've been around a little longer too.

This is a handy resource everyone who is looking at social media content creation should get!

The book is under 50 pages which makes it an easy quick read, but the length also makes it great for referencing material, or referring back to things. The information is laid out in a straightforward, easy to follow layout that is absolutely great!
