NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit is a visually-pleasing, great reminder of the basics when reviewing NetGalley books. Although I'm not involved in the audio or booktok worlds, there are plenty of tips for different platforms.

I have been hoping to increase the effectiveness of my reviews so I took a few minutes to sit down and go over NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit. This is such a simple, but useful and informative tool.

Helpful tips for utilizing NetGalley and maximizing your results. I'm sure I will refer back to this manual numerous times.

This toolkit is very helpful for anyone looking to get more eyes on their book reviews! It's also super easy to download as a pdf and click links for more info.

In addition to being a NetGalley reviewer, I am also an author assistant. I've bookmarked several of the articles shared within this toolkit for future reference.

2 Biggest Takeaways:
• Although I haven't requested books in error, have requested books that were not in my preferred format. It's good to know there is a way to withdraw my request,
• You shouldn't share quotes from digital arcs. This is not the advice of authors who use NetGalley to distribute arcs. Many ask team members to compile a list of their favorite quotes so they can make graphics for social media.

Super helpful and handy for my growing collection of NetGalley reads! This website has changed my view on reading and helped me explore so Many different books and perspectives. Turns out I like literary books a lot more than I realized. And even better, this year NetGalley helped me find some of my favorite books I have ever read.— So grateful! Thanks for this booklet to keep me on track.

This is a Great tool kit to use and how to understand the NETGALLEY app.
I have to say it all in all is very well done and enjoyable. To read and enjoy the app because of it.

I read this guide to reviewing books on Netgalley and found many helpful tips for making my profile and bookstagram more effective and engaging. This is a great guide.

As a newbie to NetGalley, and thinking of increasing my on-line presence in 2023, this quick read gave a ton of great snippets to help get my brain thinking about what type of "bookie" I want to be. I have been reading my whole life, so over half a century (EEK!) and I love how the book world is changing with on-line capabilities of being able to reach and share with fellow book readers. I am not 100% great at social-media and this helped give a kick start to how to go about it on may different platforms.

And hopefully my first review reflects the "do's" and not the don'ts". Planning on using this as a reference as i start to read more, and hope that publishers will want to allow me to read their books with my enthusiastic feedback! I love supporting authors, and hope with all the reading I do, I can be a help to bring exposure, and to introduce me to authors that I may not have heard of.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing this resource and the opportunity to review the content.

This is a pretty good beginner guide to anyone getting started on bookish social media, NetGalley or no. Nothing revolutionary, but you'd have to really work at it if you want to go wrong while following the tips in this toolkit.

This was a very helpful guide for writing a book review! I was totally lost, when figuring out how to even start writing one, but this step-by-step guide answered all my questions.

Review of NetGalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit
I have read multiple times an incredible, living document and resource: NetGalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit published by We Are Bookish. Packed in this 32-page treasure trove are guiding principles, tips, strategies, embedded links, and meaningful advice. Not only is the format engaging, but it is also specific and valuable -- providing what is needed to be a successful NetGalley member. I appreciate the “Dos” and “Don’ts” and the ways to be creative and successful. I highly recommend this eArc to everyone who is serious about their adventures with NetGalley, publishers, and authors.

I have been a member for a few years and have fumbled through what to do. This toolkit really helped me understand what to do after you have been given the opportunity to read books in exchange for your honest review. I will be using some of these tips immediately and work on enhancing my profile, reviews, and feedback score.

I recommend this toolkit for anyone who is new to NetGalley and wants to understand how to proceed for maximum effectiveness. The Read Now tip is worth the short time it'll take you to review this toolkit but there's so many other worthwhile tips in regards to platforms and design for certain type of reviews.

Extremely helpful and educational as a new NetGalley member! .
The "NetGalley Book Advocate Toolkit" also helped me want to start another platform other than Goodreads to post my reviews on my recent reads. I always posted mini reviews on my personal Instagram but I think I'll start a new page with just great reads and reviews.

Much thanks to NetGalley for providing me with a copy of NETGALLEY’S BOOK ADVOCATE TOOLKIT in exchange for an honest review.

This toolkit provides readers with succinct information on how to get started. Of particular import, the kit lists several “Do’s and Don’ts” that help readers with best practices when writing reviews. I particularly like how the authors included information on the different places where readers post reviews (Instagram, Facebook, and etc). This was a useful kit that I’ll continue to reference in the future.
