Got a copy of this Toolkit from NetGalley (of course) and absolutely love it! I thought it'd only go over how to set up and utilize your NetGalley account, but the pages about how to set up and make your review social media platforms stand out were a nice surprise. I am new to Bookstagram and Goodreads and hope to expand to a blog and Youtube eventually. The whole process can be a bit overwhelming. The tips for social media and how to grow/get started had very practical suggestions that I will be implementing as I grow my online review presences.
Thank you NetGalley for making this easy to read toolkit! I'll definitely be re-reading many times over.
It gave good information. It was stuff that was good to know. I’m writing this mainly to get my feedback rate up, so it’s quite a bit of slowed spew so that I can get it too one hundred words.
Nice to have to check back to!! I actually enjoyed skimming through this and getting some insight on Netgalley and applying for arcs, etc
I found this toolkit extremely helpful! It was great to receive insight into the book reviewing process. I enjoyed reading the Do's and Don'ts of reviewing as well as learning about the different avenues and resources available for book reviewing. I believe anyone getting started on NetGalley and starting their book reveiwer journey would benefit from reading this toolkit. I feel I did!
Thank you NetGalley for providing this resource!
Great little book for setting up, creating a great profile and reviewing, spreading the word on the books you choose. A must get .
This guide was incredibly helpful for me since I am just starting out on NetGalley. It also gave some great tips for other social media like Instagram and TikTok. Definitely check this out if you haven’t already!
This was a fantastic guide! If you are just starting out in the review sphere, this has some great tips. I really liked that it had a section about accessibility as well.. I feel like that is something that is frequently overlooked.
I found this guide to be extremely helpful! I very much appreciate the advice and expertise provided here. Will definitely reference this in the future.
This manual was very thorough and helpful, but would be better for most if there were examples to showcase what publishers are looking for in a review.
This is a brilliant book to help you with all your reviews, social media profiles and even tips on writing good reviews.
No one should start with Netgalley until they have read this handy guide full of information to help you on your way to reading and reviewing.
This toolkit was very helpful I feel it will continue to be a guide as I move forward with NetGalley. Thank you for continuing to support reviewers.
A great toolkit and set of rules that helps us with best practices and not to make mistakes when providing reviews with this system.
Thank you NetGalley and We Are Bookish for providing me this Toolkit. It informs you more about building your ratio, platform, book requesting and review writing. Personally I would welcome more informations about Goodreads and blogs but overall this does not really affect my experience with this kit. I found it really helpful and I recommend it especially for those who are just starting on this platform.
Useful orientation for book reviewers. This guide is well designed and clear, with helpful links to additional resources.
The best parts of this guide include:
- getting started checklist
- how to request books
- what to put in a book review (including formulas and tips for writer's block)
- being successful on social media
As a new book blogger, this guide helped me get oriented and not feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information. The design of the guide is especially helpful in preventing overwhelm.
After reading this, I built a solid plan for my book blog based on the information listed both here and on the useful links.
I didn't realize I had to review this and that it counted in my feedback rating. For that, I apologize.
Helpful guide to reviewing books on NetGalley. I do not do social media as my library has a department that does it for us. I'm a bit antiquated and do not fully understand how to use it
Thank you NetGalley for this resource! I found this very informative as to how to navigate on this website.
As a newbie to reviewing books this guide was extremely helpful with outlining the areas to focus on for a great review. They also include tips to assist with growing your social media audience :)
Thank you NetGallery, for this Tool Kit! I'm such a noob when it comes to reviewing books. This helped me get all the basics so I can begin dipping my toes into this realm!
You guys are the best!!
This is an excellent guide to using NetGalley in the best way, with a great layout which made the guide easy to read. I learned some new things - like to always credit the publisher and NetGalley, and not to share quotes or interior art. I even took a bunch of screenshots of the helpful tips, for my own use going forward with my NetGalley journey.
Helpful guide to reviewing books on NetGalley and other social media, especially for those new to it.
Thanks for the toolkit! Very helpful. Although, it is odd that it counts your feedback rating if you don’t leave a review…
