I'm really enjoying all of the challenges to come from this pack! An excellent way to keep me motivated with my reading over the summer months and a good way to help boost social media presence for those of us with a smaller platform :D
Looking forward to taking part.

So much fun! I can not wait to join in throughout the month.
Bingo is such a fun way to play along with other reviewers

This looks cute and fun. This is my first time participating. I really like the Bingo challenge. The stickers are not bad.

I absolutely adore the theme of “Camp” NetGalley. I love how on theme all of the graphics were and the whole idea is really enjoyable! My favorite thing is definitely the stickers! who doesn’t love free, cute stickers!! Super cute idea overall!

The book review that I am most proud of is https://www.netgalley.com/book/373542/review/1426068
My favorite thing about this event is the ability to get a new badge while participating!
Next year, we could have bingos by gender of the book or maybe sponsored by publishers

I totally enjoy this event!

Such a cute idea! Enjoying the bingo. Would maybe suggest allowing for customizable tasks or a menu to choose from.

Recently finished Prime-Time Romance and loved it. Review attached.

This is such a fun idea! I absolutely love this packet and will be trying to follow along for the month of July!

This seems like a nice way to get involved with netgalley and meet fellow reviewers! We’ll see how it pans out, I’m not certain how it works yet.

I always like to be involved in events and challenges around books and was very interested when I saw the email about this. But I'm honestly a bit confused with the whole summer event and not really sure the best way to participate in this.

I always appreciate it when Netgalley offers these more interactive, engaging experiences and this one is definitely quite a bit of fun. I will confess I find it a bit confusing, however, I'll always give a thumbs up for these opportunities to become more active within this community. These materials are nicely done and this entire welcome packet offers the opportunity to become more involved in the Netgalley community. You're all much appreciated.

I thought the format was cute and it was easy to use! Love the links to use in my Instagram and other social medias

Fun idea for summer! A great way to get out of a reading slump or try a different genre for a season.

I know how to review nonfiction books, but I am absolutely clueless on how to review this one. So all I can think of to say is this could be an interesting project for the month.

This is so fun! I think in the future, it would be great if there could be more instagram templates and a way for you to share them with participants other than through the PDF (it's difficult to get them into instagram from here). In addition, I think more information should be provided about the books from the Camp NetGalley sponsors. This is mentioned in the email but not the welcome packet, so it's easily overlooked. I think a book-club/read-a-long type event could be great in the future as well. Overall this is so fun and it's nice to see everyone participating and sharing.

Cute idea. Not nearly as good as the NetGalley Reading Journal this year. This Camp Netgalley workbook didn’t really make it clear to me how to participate in the weeks except for the talent show. But also, it doesn’t seem to have a real prize. Like yay, a badge. Nothing bad about a badge. But it would be cool to get a book…even a free book download or approval. I don’t know. After reading it, it just doesn’t seem like something I want to participate in this summer. I like the bingo from the reading journal, so I’ll keep up with that.

This is such a fun and interactive event! I love that Netgalley chooses to give opportunities for members to connect with each other and others over our favorite things— books! I think a potential idea that could further this next year would be some take on “summer reading.” While getting all of us to read the same book would be too difficult, maybe we could break into groups based on genre, and Netgalley could provide some kind of chat rooms, discord channels, or online dashboards for us all to directly discuss. Something in the vein of offering direct conversation with fellow readers would be so fun! Thanks to the Netgalley team for all you do!

Interesting enough but way too much for me to do for this one. Maybe another time when I am able to sfocus and do the best job possible.
