This was a great introduction to being a book advocate! As someone who enjoys helping people find their next favorite book and recommending books more than critically reviewing them I really look forward to thinking of myself a "Book Advocate" and not strictly a "reviewer."

This is a great guide on not only how to best utilize different platforms and their individual styles of content (Youtube, TikTok, Instagram, and Blogs), but also how to vary your content across platforms. The information presented is conveyed via fun checklists and graphics. Links to articles on NetGalley's sister site "We Are Bookish" are embedded into the PDF and easily link you to well written and helpful articles on various topics throughout the guide!

I highly recommend this guide to:
- anyone just getting started with book reviewing
- reviewers looking to expand their knowledge on different types of reviews to post
- bookish content creators looking for fun book related content ideas or styles
- anyone looking for more information on different platforms for their reviews
- reviewers who already have a strong presence on one platform but want expand their presence on other platforms

This toolkit is extremely helpful and provided lots of information especially for someone new to NetGalley or as a refresher for those already familiar with the site.

Very interesting read and helpful for both new and existing users. I don't think I read a guide like this when I started using Netgalley.

Very detailed information on reviewing and how to use your chosen platform. I particularly liked the advice about not requesting too many books. I ended up lowered my feedback ratio when I was struggling to read at times for various reasons. I'd often request a lot in case I had lots of rejections. Sometimes realising later on that the book no longer appealed to me or I had no time to review anymore. So good advice to follow. Request less and don't overload myself to continue using and enjoying Netgalley.

A guide I will return to again.

Lots of helpful hints! Thanks very much for putting this guide together. I also really enjoy the #TipTuesday series on Instagram.

If you are new to book reviewing and spreading the word about your reviews, this toolkit can start you on your way. The toolkit covers popular social media tools like Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok, plus publishing platforms like WordPress. It helps you think about how to publish your review in a few different ways.

Excellent guide on how to utilize NetGalley, understand the features of the site, and craft a profile that will appeal to publishers (which means more accepted read requests!)

Aside from connecting your social accounts, it's also a good idea to list a few favorite authors, include a brief description of the kind of content you create, and to update your profile every few months to demonstrate to publishers that you're active and ensures your stats are up-to-date.

I found this quick to read and easy to understand. I recommend it to anyone who wants to up their book review game and make the most out of their digital presence on NetGalley. Even if you have been using the site for some time, you will probably be able to find some useful tips.

Lots of good information and tips clearly explained for each of the social media platforms, as well as good tips for bloggers to create and schedule regular posts and grow your following, as well as specific tips for Net Galley. Very helpful!

All members should look through this before starting! Overall, thank you for all the wonderful tips!

A brilliant quick read that gives great pointers for those starting out reviewing or those who have been doing it for a while. I enjoyed the attractive layout and easy to follow steps.

This guide is unbelievably helpful for both people who are just starting out their reviewer journey on Netgalley, and seasoned reviewers who require a brief refresher course.

The tips it gives on reviewing books, and adding your own unique perspective so as to avoid drowning in a monotone drone is very insightful.

Incredibly happy that this guide was provided!
