Love the Camp NetGalley promotion! My favorite part was playing Bingo and I hope to use the Bingo card even beyond this month.

This is such a fun initiative! The graphics are cute and really enticing, additionally, the thematic concept has been really well implemented and I particularly like the template like graphics that everyone can add to in order to participate. Also, making a badge available?! Such a good hook! Can't wait to see everyones progress!

I love all the cool ideas and fun activities! I also think it's great that there is a badge and a talent contest for reviews. There are so many fun ideas for this camp and I'm looking forward to participating.

This is such a cute idea! I'm so busy this month I won't be participating in the weekly events, but this is wonderful. I'll share my review of the book FIRE WEATHER which is one of my favorite reads of this year: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5898400387

If the Talent Show is only for books reviewed on NetGalley, I'll share my review of THE TAINTED CUP that I made earlier this year https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5699387735?type=review#rating_704068650

Camp NetGalley is a dynamic event for book lovers, offering early access to upcoming titles and opportunities to connect with publishers. It fosters a strong sense of community, with participants sharing reviews and tips. Workshops and webinars with industry professionals provide valuable insights. A favorite aspect is the chance to access exclusive book previews, allowing readers to stay ahead of trends and contribute to book buzz.

I love a summer reading challenge and this one is so great! There's bingo to help diversify not only your reading habits, but book-related spaces. Plus a scavenger hunt? I'm sold. I can't wait to start!

Camp NetGalley has been a fun little way to kick off the summer! Overall it seems to be a nice lowkey event without a lot of pressing and/or stressful events, but maybe next time there could be multiple themes for the bingo cards to cover a wider audience.

Fun and inclusive summer time activities to increase a reader’s engagement online with other readers. A fun way to share one’s love of reading. The templates are easy to download. The fun stickers to add to the journal selection.

Camp NetGalley is a fun challenge to keep you motivated and active in the summer. Really, who doesn't love summer camp?

This is a pretty cute idea. Although I’m a little confused by the talent show. I think I’m doing this right so hopefully my review counts towards the talent show.

I love nothing so much as a challenge. I was always the kid who earned pledges for how many books I would read during the summer — and it was a lot. I hit my Goodreads 2024 reading challenge goal less than halfway through the year, and it was an ambitious goal. So I am all in on NetGalley summer camp! I love the weekly prompts and am especially looking forward to the social media challenge week and the revamped book advocate toolkit. I am really enjoying my experience here, but always anxious to learn, and would love to be leveraging my social media presence in a more robust way to promote the books and authors I love. Thanks for an engaging community event!

Super excited for Camp NetGalley! I love the Book Bingo and Instagram story templates. I can’t wait for the week of July 15-21 and the scavenger hunt!
I think these interactive type of things really help connect NetGalley users to each other. This also helps spread the word of NetGalley and introduce those that may not be familiar with it to it.
Next year I would love more templates to share. Please see my attached link for a recent review I am super proud of and as my entry into the Talent Show!

This is such a fun idea. I always love ways to discover new books. The bingo had me finding new books to read outside my normal genre.

I am super competitive so the idea of a contest for badges is very appealing to me.

Ideas for next year: I think it would be fun to get books with the camp to earn badges. This could help me get even further out of my comfort zone.

Overall I think this is a fun idea and I look forward to the other things to come.
