This is a helpful companion for anyone interested in starting to review (or already reviewing) on NetGalley. The handbook contains tips and tricks for getting more eyes on your reviews.

Great tips for handling social media accounts. It makes me want to start a bookstagram or booktok account!

What a wonderful resource for bookish content creators. Even though I have an instagram account for a while I still picked up lots of tips to make my account more accessible and to help it reach a wider audience.

This is a very helpful book.
I had joined NetGalley before I really got into reviewing and posting reviews on Goodreads and 'Bookstagram' so it was a nice reminder and prompt for ideas or ways to do things.

As someone who is still relatively new to social media as a book reviewer (I've been on for two years), I think this is a valuable resource to have. There are things in this guide that I learned by observing for about two months before diving into the world of Bookstagram. I wish I'd have this back then!

Very helpful information with some really good tips for social media. It was a quick read but I kind of liked it better thatbway

A very handy beginner's guide to amplifying book reviews on all social media channels. As someone who is well-versed in digital marketing, I found some useful tips that I didn't already know.

Not a bad primer for how to get started on various social media apps. I'm a transplant from TikTok to Instagram due to the impending TikTok ban in the US, so this was helpful.

I found this full of information that I needed to read. Thank you so much for making jt accessible for everyone.

This is a solid information package. I think it will be most useful to newer accounts starting out, but even for those who have been around for a while, there are handy hints. I liked how each section was split into apps, so each suggestion was applicable to Instagram, X, Wordpress etc. Very handy.

This is a guide for anyone just starting to grow their blog on social media and beyond! Since I started my blog on Instagram only two months ago, I found plenty of valuable tips in this handbook, such as advice on hashtags. It also contains useful information about writing reviews. I highly recommend it to all reviewers!

This was a nice book with tips for social media! I appreciate the help and suggestions. I look forward to using these to improve my reach and status on Bookstagram. Thank you!

Helpful!! I enjoy using social media to share my book reviews so I'm glad other people have the resource. If you're already familiar with social media - this will have decent reminders and if you're not good at social media - this is a good place to start!

A treasure trove of information for setting up, maintaining, and growing a social media presence for book reviews. There are several pages dedicated to things like photos, consistency across platforms, and general review guidelines.
I personally post to Goodreads only, and I still found several helpful nuggets around things like review tone and best practices. I imagine users who are building out multiple channels would get the most use out of this.

Bookish folk new to bookish social media or even long-time members of the spaces will find the information and ideas in this guide handy. I especially found the tips on ideas for content helpful.
Many thanks to the NetGalley crew for putting this helpful guide together and making it user friendly and visually appealing. I perused it in my GoodNotes app, and it was a seamless interface.

This is an informative handbook for using social media alongside your ARC reading! There are so many tips and tricks that I think we can all use!
Thank you to Net Galley and We Are Bookish for this handbook!

Interesting and comprehensive look at the impact of the review for authors, book, publishers and reviewer.

I love all the fantastic resources you provide. Thanks so much. I used the journal on my Bookstagram all year.

This book is very helpful for those who are thinking about starting their own book based account and for those who have and need some help on what to do next! There are a lot of insightful tips and links for more details. I can't wait to improve my own content thanks to this book! It goes into all different types of social media platforms and different editing and content creating (and free!) apps to use. The book comments on how to use those platforms to get the most engagement, the dos and don'ts of reviewing, the art of tags, and so much more. It's a tool any person could use to continue to grow their account. I really enjoyed learning about the ways to continue to grow my book platform.

This is a super-comprehensive guide to using social media as a way to share and promote your book recommendations! I appreciate the time put into this, as well as the graphics to support the content. Thanks, NetGalley!
