Thanks Netgalley for giving me this help on writing and posting my book reviews! I am new to this and need all the tips I can get. I am considering setting up a book blog when I retire next year and I am still learning the steps I need to take to make this a reality.

This is a great guide to write reviews in a positive, succinct manner. I will definitely continue to refer to this helpful guide. It offers advice on posting on different sites and platforms for different levels of reviewers, including blogs, etc. This guide includes tools to cover whatever you are interested in getting involved in. Thank you, NetGalley for putting this together and making it available.

So appreciate this toolkit! While I read lots of books, I sometime go through periods of intense reading and then times where I can be doing something more productive than reading. I have come to realize that there is nothing more productive or rewarding than reading a great book! whether its a thriller that keeps me up all night, a romance that makes me shed tears, or a romantic comedy that makes me laugh out loud, all books should be made my main priority.

I have been reviewing books on Goodreads for the past few years but not exactly "consistently" which I think is why I often get declined for the books I would like to get from Netgalley. After reading this Toolkit, I now understand what to do right, and what I have been doing wrong and commit to try and change certain ways to make myself more acceptable from the authors perspective to be able to grant me an approval to preview nd review their book.

Thank you for putting this Toolkit together!!! For an amateurs' like me perspective, it so made sense and gave me a sense on what to do and how to do it, I loved it!.

This is a very helpful toolkit for beginners who are starting to review books professionally (or even as a hobby but wanting to improve their reviews). The toolkit has everything you need to know about NetGalley's process and how to become a star reviewer. The explanations were easy to understand and there were good diagrams for visual learners as well.

I am new to the NetGalley experience. I appreciate this useful toolkit. It clearly explains what the expectations are and how to compose a review on a title. It explains the NetGalley process in a clear manner. The information regarding the promotion of the title on social media was the section I found the most helpful. Overall, I found the toolkit to be packed with insight, tips, and guidance. As a newcomer, this toolkit was exactly what I was looking for.

This is an excellent book of tips for getting started with Net Galley. It provides good tips and tricks as well as ideas for drafting reviews. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in reviewing books through Net Galley. The book also provides information on how to post reviews to numerous sites and social media avenues which are helpful for reviewers who post on multiple platforms instead of just Amazon, Goodreads, etc. The book also provides links for additional samples for social media posts and book reviews. All in all, this book provides a wealth of information for book reviewers.
