What a helpful little download this is! Perfect if you are just starting out reviewing books or, like me, a little refresher on dos and don’ts.
Very clearly layout with insightful hints and tips!
Perfect for bookstagram, booktube, booktok and blogs etc.

This has some great tidbits on how to best utilize NetGalley, write reviews and lots of other useful information.

A very useful toolkit, indeed. Well laid-out and visually appealing; extra information is linked on each page if you want to go deeper into the topic, without overwhelming the page. Highly recommended for new NetGalley reviewers, or as a refresher for old hands, or help if you are experiencing too many publisher rejections.

NetGalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit is a great resource for anyone using NetGalley to receive advance copies of books to read and review.

I read this before starting my NetGalley journey and found it the zoomed out approach helpful and informative. It is great to have one spot to refer back to when I am unsure of something or have questions. I particularly liked the illustrate style of the toolkit because it kept me engaged the entire time.

There were a couple of things I did wish were slightly different about the toolkit. The toolkit because it had a broad focus had a lot of information that did not pertain to me, and I found it to be slightly overwhelming. It could be useful to have multiple smaller and slightly more focused pamphlets. I also found some missing information that I would have like to be included in the toolkit like some general UI navigation and more specific how to’s.

All in all, I found this to be a very useful tool, and my cons are about wanting more, which I think shows how well it currently is working.

I received an ARC of this book from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit was incredibly helpful. It gives tips on writing reviews and creating for different social media platforms. I will definitely read through it again in the future for a quick reminder of ideas and tricks that can help me. It was a very easy, quick, and fun read!

This Toolkit set up by #Netgalley is a read for everyone. Wish I read this when I started doing reviews but although I have already reviewed 100 books, there were some things I learned. Great ideas and instructions on the how-to of the maze of book reviews and book requests.

It is well written and easy to understand even if you are a novice at this. Thank you Netgalley for helping us manage the maze of learning about the process.

This was very helpful to modify and perfect reviews! I appreciate the different tips given to specific platforms such as Goodreads versus Instagram. As a visual learner, I also really liked the different graphics :)

This was a really helpful and informative book. The visuals were great and the content was even better. This is something that I needed to help me get my Bookstagram off the ground!

thank you we are bookish for the ebook and the opportunity to improve more and more our reviews.

eu ainda to aprendendo a escrever review e saber como classificar os livros que leio e não ser cruel demais com aquilo que eu não tenho afinidade.

vou sempre revisitar o ebook e tentar extrair o melho para aplicar na meu ig literario

This toolkit was pretty helpful - and I don't have a BookTube, BookTok, or Bookstagram account, which were primary focuses. It also covered getting started on NetGalley, starting a blog, and writing compelling reviews. It provides a lot of handy tips on just about every area of reviewing.
If/when I start really diving into the book world online, I"ll come back to this resource!

This was super helpful. I have been on Netgalley for about a month now, and this has some great information that I will certainly be using in the future. I loved the graphics and how everything was explained in a simple manner.

Excellent toolkit and I continue to be grateful to be part of the NetGalley 'family'.

This toolkit helps both new reviewers and reminds those of us who have been doing reviews for years, how important it is to carefully consider our feedback. Thank you!

As a new user on NetGalley, this toolkit helped me feel confident in getting started! I appreciate the tips included in this guide.

A great, short but to the point guide for NetGalley users. I'm still a relatively new user so I found it very useful! I also appreciate the fact that it's beautifully illustrated and designed and that made it very easy to read. Thanks NetGalley.

This guide book is very helpful I've been reviewing for a few years; but didn't share enough across social media. This book helped me learn how to share more. Thank you Net Galley for the DRC. I will be a better reviewer for reading NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit. I found the tips on social media sharing the most useful
