This was a helpful tool in learning the Net Galley website. I was struggling a bit in the beginning. I am new to reviewing books, and new to ARC reading.
I am glad that they came out with an easy to navigate infographic on how to do better. I am learning that some publishers have extremely specific set of requirements for what they want before they approve someone.
I still have a long way to go but I am happy to be here.
Thank you Net galley.

I think this book is a great starting point for someone that is just getting started writing reviews, but also for those of us that have been using Netgalley for many years. It gives so many good tips and good reminders of things you should be doing in your reviews. This book is also a must read for those that post their reviews on a blog or are doing content creation or would like to get started doing that.

I liked that the I formation of formatted as separate infographics. It allows a lot of information to be shared without making me feel like I’m being overloaded with information. There was a lot of helpful information on such a wide variety of topics. I feel like this should be required reading for those of us just starting out!

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.

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.

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.
