Love all these tips. I will definitely come back again and again. I'm working on an Instagram page and love all the tips about Canva and editing and hashtags

A quick, to the point instructional on how to best advocate for the books you love and review! I appreciate them not only providing information on how to properly utilize the NetGalley site, but also how to best write reviews and format posts depending on what social media is being used. As a new NetGalley member, the dos and don'ts were very helpful.
Thank you NetGalley and We Are Bookish for the DRC!

Helpful, clear and concise guidance to get started with both NetGalley and writing useful reviews. It provides hints and tips for making best use of social media and developing a portfolio as a reviewer as well as links to more advice. Who'd have thought there's even a Bookstagram. Everything that you need to get started is here..

I really appreciated this short read by 'We Are Bookish'. It gives clear instructions on how to choose what category of reviewer you are. It gives an insight on how to construct reviews on NetGalley and how to share them on other platforms. Hints on writing your personal profile. The booklet also explains what to do if for any reason you cannot review a book that you have downloaded. This booklet is a must read for anyone who wants to become a book reviewer with NetGalley. Thank you NetGalley for sending me this booklet to read.

Informative and insightful manual! It's really helpful for new members learning the ins and outs of NetGalley. Thanks again!

The most helpful parts of the toolkit in my opinion were the explanations of feedback ratio and a few tips for members. There were also a few tips on writing a book review.

A significant portion of the ebook focuses on social media, outlining the various platforms where bookish spaces exist and detailing advice for getting started on a book blog, bookstagram, booktube, or booktok.

I would have preferred more of the ins and outs of NetGalley since I am already familiar with bookish social media spaces, but I can see how this could be helpful to others.

Overall super helpful! I really liked the pictures, I found the colors soothing and the way it was structured was aesthetically pleasing as well as easy to follow. The tips were short, to the point and extremely helpful. The additional links gave me more ways to better my review style. Definitely recommend to anyone that needs some inspiration for their own personal blogs/social media as well as for netgalley reviews.

Best book I've read so far! Honestly, nice to have something to not only get some info about the do's and don'ts but also you get to write a "test" review and get familiar with the format.

I am glad that I read this toolkit from We Are Bookish. It gives realistic advice on how to increase one's footprint on NetGalley. It doesn't go long so it is highly readable. It is honest about the work and investment that is involved and that is something that I can appreciate. It gave me a much better idea on what goes on behind the scenes.

I am appreciate that this booklet was available to read from NetGalley in exchange for honest feedback.
