This is a really useful resource! Some of the information is fairly basic, but there's a stuff in there that won't necessarily be obvious to anyone starting out and a lot of helpful tips. I would definitely recommend this to anyone just getting started with NetGalley.

Had a quick skim and think this will be really useful. Would be useful to flag this to new members so they can start off on the right foot rather than having to go through Help articles/guides. My thanks to the person who highlighted this on Facebook. - you're a gem for sharing.

I thought most of what I would find here to be common sense, but the information truly surprised me! There was much I hadn’t thought of and this is an essential read for anyone taking their NetGalley membership seriously. It couldn’t hurt to read it and takes just one sitting to read! I’m sure I will keep coming back to this to for tips as I move forward!

Fantastic information is included in this book. I definitely should have read this at the beginning of my Netgalley journey. But I'm still glad to have it now.

This is a really nice guide for someone who is new to NetGalley and/or posting reviews online. I appreciate that it has a lot of tips across platforms and provides some good additional tools, like Canva, in addition to the expected how to write reviews tips and tricks.

Pretty okay for a toolkit. I'm not sure if I'll use it super often. It was good to look at once maybe but overall that's about it.

A very helpful toolkit for those who are new to NetGalley. A guide like this is very helpful, even for those who have been here for a while now.

The toolkit seems really helpful to new members. I don't find it as helpful now that I've been reviewing on NetGalley for a while now. However, this is a great resource and this will absolutely help new reviewers.

This is a great toolkit for a NetGalley newbie like myself. Before signing up for NetGalley I hadn’t reviewed many ARCs and so having a guide this is helpful.

There's lots of helpful information and tips here for new reviewers or those who need some fresh ideas. I loved the tips about how to improve your review ratio after going on a request spree. Glad I'm not the only one who has fallen into that trap!

This toolkit was really helpful for those like myself unfamiliar with how NetGalley works and what the expectations were. I’m confident now after reading it that I’ll be able to give reviews and interact with the materials better than had I not had it.

A great guide for first time reviewers and book advocates!!

I was unsure about my first review on NetGalley and found this toolkit in the "How to write a book review" Section. It definitely helped me conceptualize how to craft an honest and professional book review.

I found this very helpful, especially the specialized tips for each different platform. I’m eager to implement the tips I read. My only suggestion would be a better summary, quick start guide or tldr page
