Very useful guide. Expectations clearly explained and very easy to read. As others have said, I really should have read this guide before falling into the "request spree."

Useful tools, thanks to netgalley for the guide. I hadn't started writing reviews until this year but already feel like I'm 100 times better.

So grateful for Netgalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit and the loads of tips and tricks to help me start out on the right track! It is definitely something that I will frequently look back on whenever I need some advice or inspiration. Not only is it an important tool to have, but it also provides so much support to help out just about anyone who is interested in reviewing books.

This is extremely helpful and a must-read for all book reviewers. I love all the tips about how to use different platforms including steps for taking Instagram photos and different kinds of blog posts. I'll be reading this often.

Thank you for this! Super helpful - though I would have loved to read it BEFORE I fell into the 'request spree' trap!

This was really helpful for a newbie to leaving reviews. I’ve actually been going back to this guide for guidance.

This was super helpful as an ARC and online reviewer newbie! Great tips - there were a few things I wouldn’t have even thought of (meaning I already did the wrong thing), like not trying to request too many books all at once.

This is a really useful guide to help with your NetGalley success. There are some useful tips such as "fighting the request spree" This is something I definitely struggle with. If you're new to NetGalley and need some advice this is a great place to start.

Thank you for the tips on how to write a book review! Especially how to utilize other platforms to generate an audience! I will definitely use these techniques and tips for both my channels “The Resistance Book Club” and “Black Authors Corner”

This was a very helpful toolkit for those who, like myself, are relatively new to NetGalley. Thanks to We Are Bookish for making it available. I am sure I will continue to reference it as I continue growing as a Book Advocate.

An all inclusive guidebook to reviews!

This contains everything you’ll need to know from setting up your username on sites (including which sites) to how to make content accessible.

There’s guides on how to take photos of books and eReaders including the props to use. There’s help on setting up a schedule for your content and how to not get overwhelmed by too much.

This guideline is easy to digest with everything written simply, to the point, with gorgeous graphics and illustrations.

To anyone like myself who’s starting out in their reviewing journey or even just dipping their toes into the word of books and social media I highly recommend this book to you.

I highly value all in this book it’s a solid 10/10 from me.

***A big thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for my advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review.***

NETGALLEY'S BOOK ADVOCATE TOOLKIT

I found this 32-page toolkit helpful, easy to use with colourful eye-catching information full of tips and hints for reviewing purposes. I obtained all I needed for my reviewing purposes and would recommend this toolkit to all reviewers.

I give a 4 star rating.

Appreciated how organized and thorough this guide was. As someone new to NetGalley and the reviewing scene in general, I can see myself pulling this guide out regularly to help establish myself and will be referring back to the tips and tricks outlined.
