Man, I wish I had this when I first started reviewing books. This was helpful and succinct, and I appreciated how there were checklists and actionable items to get users started.

This is a very comprehensive Social Media handbook covering all platforms where books are commonly reviewed. This includes tips for how to set up your profiles, how to review books, what to do and also NOT to do, hashtag strategies. I took a lot of tips from it that I wasn't doing. It's very detail, for example I had no idea I must include the publisher from where the Arc is received on my reviews. Would definitely recommend anyone to read this who are starting on social media.

This was helpful, and I hope to refer to it as I gain more experience. It's a useful handbook. It is well organized and thorough. I didn't know some of these social media outlets existed.

It's very helpful to guide everybody who would want to start on social media to share the love of reading. I will definitely go back to it from time to time to get inspired and try out new ways to share the books I've been reading.

Helpful, I like how it’s setup to be quick and easy to read. However, I wish it didn’t mess with feedback ratio to download it- feels a bit counterintuitive.

I found some helpful tips through NetGalley's Social Media Handbook! Most of the stuff I knew, but there were a few things here and there that I had never thought of before.

Thank you NetGalley for my copy!

A well organized guide to using social media to share book reviews. Nothing hugely revelatory, but a nice introduction to the different platforms and how they can be used.

An excellent guide to all things social media. This is a one stop shop for anyone new or seasoned on various social media platforms. It gives great tips as well as examples for everything for how to write a book review to special editing tools for different platforms. This is a great asset to a wannabe book influencer like me.

It was very user friendly and definitely broke down starting social media into manageable steps. I also really appreciated the platform specific recommendations and how they each differed slightly depending on which platform is being used. I'll definitely be integrating tips mentioned in this resource! Thank you so much!!

I found this guide pretty helpful as a new(ish) bookstagrammer. I am not the most savy with creating content so this gives some great tips.

I love this guide and it has helped me plan out my future on "bookstagram." I love how clearly written it is and the graphics are on point!

With doing this for awhile, a lot of this is not new to me. But I wish I saw this when I first started in the book community as a book reviewer. Would have given me the tools to be on social media and be more effective. So this is great for someone who just started.
