this is helpful for anyone just getting into netgalley or anyone who might need a refresher/inspiration on how to put book reviews and what not on your socials! pictures, reviews, engagements, etc etc. are all mentioned in here and i would def recommend to someone who just wants to learn a little bit more on these topics <3
This a great review guide for social media. It includes all the big social media platforms with tips and tricks, but also include general advice for reviewing. Definitely handy to have for beginners like , but I also think it's great for inspiration for more experienced reviewers.
NetGalley’s Social Media Handbook is a lifesaver for beginners and veteran reviewers.
It has fresh ideas to keep me up-to-date.
I printed it off to keep going back and revisiting the ideas.
I like hard copies.
Great handbook! Easy to follow and simple for a newbie while also some great tips and reminders for more experienced boooksta reviewers. I am always happy to learn some new tips, especially with the increase in shadowbanning these days using certain keywords or phases!
This is a very helpful and informative guide. I'm so glad I got the email about it anddownloaded it.
Very helpful recommendations for social media from the good people of We are Bookish! Thank you for the opportunity to review and recommend
Thanks for the tips! I really appreciate how it was broke down by different media sites, was quick and to the point
Thank you NetGalley, this was so helpful! I'd love more stuff like this from time to time. It was very useful and helpful as I contemplate expanding from Goodreads and NetGalley to a Bookstagram or BookTok.
I always love the content from We Are Bookish and I feel like it elevates my understanding of how to give good and positive feedback for books, even if the books weren't my favorite.
In this edition, We are Bookish outlines sharing content on Social Media. In the first section, is a brief description of different types of platforms on which book reviews may be shared. These platorms include still images, videos, and text-based social media. What's nice about this is that readers can decide if they want to stick with what they know, assuming there is a thing they know, or explore something new.
The tips section is amazing. The layout of the pages makes it so easy to take in snippets of information at a time, while also having all of the information available in one place. The advice is great for growing engagement with the reading community, including authors and publishers. Additionally, other resources that will help with content creation and polishing are also listed which is huge. I didn't know what I needed or what would be helpful when I first started on Bookstagram, so this is greatly appreciated!
The thing I feel that I struggle with the absolute most in this role is writing a good book review. I used to never recap the synposis because readers can check that on their own. In time, I realized that was totally silly because readers are going to pick a book based on the topic and on the reviews they see. This doesn't have to be, and on most platforms shouldn't be, extensive, but definitely not something to be overlooked either!
I thought this was a very helpful guide. I have thought about getting into tiktok, but am usure if I have the skills lol However I do have a bookstagram that I am trying to get the hang of. So I found this to be truly helpful.
This was a helpful handbook for reviewing on different platforms. I appreciated the overview of the different social media and the kinds of reviews that work best for each platform. I also appreciated the image section. I will use some of these tips for improving my own bookish Instagram account.
great handbook on how to use social media to promote books. It is nice when they release these handbooks. Looking forward to seeing more reading guides to be used in the classroom.
I was so excited to get the Social Media Handbook from NetGalley. This guide is packed with all kinds of information and helpful tips to get you started or to become a better reviewer. Tips on how to review, where to share and the difference between different social medias. It is so easy to follow and understand. Thanks to NetGalley for the guide and helping us on our way. I love being a reviewer and this guide helped encourage me.
This is an easy guide to help you build your social media profile. It contains useful tips for each step of the way. Step by step process that’s easy to follow regardless on what you’d like to do.
Many Thanks NetGalley for this guide which is helpful and informative!

I found this very useful especially regarding developing content for different platforms and a blog.
This handbook is well thought out with a lot of great tips. It is designed as a Social media 101 guidebook. I have been reviewing all my books read on Goodreads for over a decade, but I only started a social media presence when I joined NetGalley about a year ago. I was already doing most of what is mentioned, but I found several suggestions that will help. I not only discovered what I was doing right, but also what I was doing wrong.
Really informative. Thank you NetGalley! Can’t wait to get started using the advice given. Thank you again.
Such a helpful book. If you're new in the bookstagram world like me or on any other social media apps this book is really helpful and the best part is that it is free.
This is a great tool for anyone trying to be more consistent on this platform and provide quality reviews for the books they receive. I am so glad NetGalley puts out tools like this because they help those just starting out know exactly what they need to do to succeed.
