Thank you for creating this toolkit with lots of advice on creating an online presence with various platforms. You not only have an overview but also some specific tips and hints. I like that the format is easy to access. 4 stars.

This toolkit was very helpful, as I am new to NetGalley, and also have a fairly new bookstagram account. I particularly appreciated the #HashtagTips and Bookstagram 101 information. The links to extra tips were very nice- they kept the clutter on the page to a minimum, yet increased the knowledge the toolkit provided. I feel more confident in moving forward with NetGalley because of this toolkit.

I have been struggling with creating and noticing that it is not getting the attention it deserves. I have taken feedback from several other creators but I am at a loss.
However this Toolkit has offered me helpful ways to create reviews and share content that I believe will be fruitful in my future content.
While this was short and sweet, the graphics and easy to read tips were incredibly helpful and offered easy to follow instructions on helping you grow as an ARC reader for NetGalley.
I have already begun implementing these tips including changing up my bio and focusing on simple and unique pictures for Instagram.
If you are new to ARCS or NetGalley I highly recommend downloading this and taking a look at how you can be more successful in this industry.

The Book Advocate Toolkit provides an easy to follow guideline on how to interact with books, publishers, and authors as an ARC reviewer or a generalized reviewer as well no matter how long the piece has been published. Will be using this information in the future to help me navigate the reviewer process. Thank you NetGalley!

This book advocate toolkit is full of helpful advice and offers answers to frequently asked questions. The Do's and Don't's succinctly offer insight and practical advice for reviewers, as well as breaking down different reviewer categories. The Blog Review Formats page was a fun glimpse into different styles. I appreciate how colorful, informative, and easy to navigate this tool kit is! Thank you to NetGalley for creating this volume and providing it at no cost so that I could write this review.

This is an informational download as it covers the essentials of how to provide feedback as a reviewer of books and audiobooks. It offers a variety of resources on how to publish your reviews and gives tips if utilizing social media, i.e., camera, lighting, etc. I would love to see other variations of this journal as I can see other structures of the journal being beneficial for myself or others as well. I do want to thank "We Are Bookish" and #NetGalley for providing this asset to us readers.

This was a really helpful guide on how to post effective book reviews, how each review platform works, and how to change posts for each platform! I felt like I understood reviewing already, but I learned several new things after browsing through this guide. I will definitely be utilizing this guide for future reviews to best serve the books and authors I am accepted for advanced reader copies!
