This is a great starter guide for anyone who likes to share their reviews on social. Included are the basics for many but not all of the most popular social media platforms. I've yet to tackle some of the platforms and will be using this as a guide.

Great tips to use when starting out. I’ll be reviewing this book again when I’m looking for inspiration or feeling stuck. Thank you for this resource!

This is the best book for knowing what to do on social media with book reviews. This book gives platforms that a person can write reviews on, does and donts, tips, etc for each platform and in general. I found the tip of not tagging the author if its anything lower then 5 Stars interesting and it said you should tag the publisher instead. There is so much information in this book for anyone that does reviews.

This is a great and succinct handbook that lays out how to create book-oriented social media profiles and content on all of the platforms. This is good for newbies and established bookers as it's loaded with great tips for all the platforms and is worded in a way that may have you looking at your content in a new light. I know this has given me several new ideas for my content going forward. Thanks Netgalley!

This was a phenomenal guide on social media use for book talk from both amateur and professional standpoints. Being new to book talk and trying to figure things out, I found this guide to be a good starting point for my platform. It did a really good job discussing the individual platforms, and how to build a standing with each one, while also offering advice on how to manage time and content flow.

I have been reading a high number of books monthly for as long as I can remember (a long time) and have recently decided that taking my passion for books paired with music to social media is something I really enjoy. This complete guide has been helpful in getting started!

The most compelling thing about this guide is the way it breaks it down into the various social platforms. Incredible tips and links to additional guides are all included. There is an overwhelming amount of content out there to get lost in while researching how to go about getting started in reviewing and sharing so having this one stop guide available was just what I needed.

Thank you NetGalley and We Are Bookish for such a thoughtful, beautifully organized approach to navigating the world of social reviewing.

Lots of useful information; I'm not on most social media but I'm positive those sections will help others. Hoping to refer back to this when I start publishing on my own blog/website as those sections were most relevant to me.

This didn’t really have any information that I didn’t already know, but I still liked the resource a lot! It was clean, easy to follow, short and to-the-point, and hit all the relevant tips someone needs to start their bookish social media accounts.

Thanks NetGalley and We Are Bookish!

If like me, you love to read and review, but social media feels like language you don't understand, then this is the handbook for you.
It's full for lots of tips and tricks for a variety of platforms. Excellent for beginners, or to refresh your memory.

This social media handbook is such a great resource for anyone who is brand new to posting content on social media, and also as a refresh for those who are more experienced. For the past year, I've been focused on Instagram and Goodreads, but I'm finally ready to expand into Tiktok, so it was helpful to see platform-specific recommendations along with additional resources. Big thank you to the team at We Are Bookish for putting this together! <3

This is a helpful document with basic tips for how to cross-post your Netgalley reviews on social media. If you've already read the We Are Bookish blog or taken a course about social media marketing, there probably isn't a ton new for you in here. If you're a beginner, it will probably be very helpful! Thank you to Netgalley for providing this content, I appreciated getting the email with the link to it, although I think maybe it should be sent to new members sooner.
