This book is awesome. It's short but jam packed with valuable and useful information. If you are starting out on booktok, bookstagram or starting a book club, this book is a definite read. It has very useful and practical tools to help you get started. It is also very useful to aide current book reviewers in improving on their reviews as well as their social networks. It's a book that one tool kit that should be visited time and time again!
Good ideas.
Might be helped with ideas on what the not reviewing a book does to one’s review ratio (non effect, essentially). At least it stayed the same for me as before and after I left a not reviewing note on a few things, and I didn’t realize it wouldn’t change the ratio or I wouldn’t have done that yet.
Very comprehensive, thoughtfully written, and easy to understand. I found the instructions and best practices straightforward and actionable. Helped me feel much more equipped to navigate my way around Netgalley.
A very helpful book for a NetGalley newbie! I feel more confident in building my bookish resume on this platform as well as my social media. I look forward to applying a lot of the tips and tricks I read. I like that there were links to extra tips. The organization of the different sharing platforms made it clear and concise.
Helpful toolkit for those starting out with NetGalley. I liked the advice and will continue to refer back to this Book Advocate Toolkit.
Several seful tips in this guide, excellent when you are new to Netgalley and reading and reviewing books.
This was a really useful resource. I learned a couple things that will be really helpful when bookstagramming.
This resource was very helpful! It provided me some considerations for developing my Bookstagram,. I was particularly pleased with links to additional resources to continue to learn and grow. Thanks for providing these resources to Book Advocates!
Fairly useful, nicely laid out and designed. A good starter guide. I hadn't entirely understood when choosing to look at it that this would count as a title on my shelf for which I ought to give feedback, though!
Extremely interestig read. I was able to learn new tips and recommendation on how to use the platform! Thank you for this book.
This book offers an excellent starting guide for reviewers new to NetGalley or even new to reviewing books in general, with tips on how to best create content on various platforms such as Instagram, Tiktok, blogs, and Youtube. Although most won't use all of these platforms, it's good to see them included in a single easy-to-find location.
What a helpful toolkit! This is exactly what I new member like myself needs! I will definitely be implementing what reading this has taught me.
This toolkit was helpful, thank you!
However, I suggest that you remove it from books requesting feedback, since it isn't quite the same as reviewing a novel for publication :)
Thank you so much for this downloadable toolkit. I have been giving reviews on Goodreads for a few years. I recently created an instagram account dedicated to reviewing books. I found this very helpful!! So excited to continue on this book review journey.
Great for newcomers and veterans alike with adequate amounts of information that covers the How Tos, the Dos and Do Nots, and so on and so forth. There are links for additional information, as well, should you want to learn more or see other examples! As someone who has been doing this for a minute, even I found the reminders refreshing. Layout is super friendly and eye-catching too.
Thanks, NG, for putting this together!
