Camp. NetGalley. 2024.

I was so hyped to see this event pop up on my Instagram feed! I’m always excited to take part of bookish events, especially since adults don’t get a summer reading program at most libraries :(. I’m super excited to learn how to edit pictures with Canva to post the Netgalley templates too! Thanks so much for putting this on! ^.^

This looks like great fun! It reminds me of the summer reading program my library is doing. I can't wait to get started. Thank you Netgalley for sharing this!

What a fun idea to have a Camp NetGalley! I loved the Bingo idea and have already added to it for the books I’ve read so far. Going to camp was always so much fun as I was growing up. It’s very nostalgic to consider this an “adult camp for readers”. While I never participated in a talent contest, see link for my talent submission.

Such a cute idea! Reminds me of the summer reading challenges at my local public library! I can't wait to participate in the challenges. I think it helps make the reading more fun with some cute activities

Absolutely love this idea!!! I think it is so fun and can’t wait for next years!!

I love that each week has different activities for all of us bookish people!

I also love that you can submit a review you love! Hopefully we can see some top contenders.

Camp NetGalley seems like a really fun summertime challenge. I do wish that the bingo card could be downloaded as a standalone PDF for easy printing, or even have it for easy posting to Instagram for more social engagement.

For my entry to the Talent Show, please consider my review of The Calculation of You and Me: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6345763734

I am so excited for Camp NetGalley. I’ve never packed my “bags” so quickly before.
In all seriousness, i love the idea of Camp NetGalley and though I am always on NetGalley requesting and reading ARCs, it makes me even more excited to continue and participate in the camp activities.

What a good idea about Camp.

I always participate in bingos, group readings, and reading marathons. It is always good to be able to enjoy reading accompanied by others.

It would be interesting if there were small instructions to complete weekly that are related to readings that we have had during the year. 'the best read', 'that story that we still remember as if you had read it yesterday', 'the one we want to see on the screen'... that would add a lot of dynamism.

I'm going to share the review I did for What You Are Looking for is in the Library, because of what it means to me to write it and read the book. I think it is one of those books that remain forever in my memories. https://www.netgalley.co.uk/book/292601/review/912485

Thanks for these activities!

This is such a fun way to get over the mid year reading slump a lot of us fall into. I may not be able to participate in all of it, but I will definitely be playing along where I can.

Interesting concept…..
Currently trying to navigate my way through the directions.
Not sure it is something that I will be interested in participating in.

Definitely a cute idea. It reminds me of NanoWrimo type of thing. I wish it wasn't this sort of packet thing, if it was a side website or whatever that would be a lot better and offer a lot more community-based involvement if done that way.

So much fun, can’t wait to get my badge! My review is for You Will Speak For the Dead: Perfect little novella that is somehow both emotionally resonant and completely horrific. Contains some images of body horror that I will never forget. You will never look at mushrooms the same way again

Looks like so much reading fun! I can’t wait to get started. The booklet is very well put together and makes it easy to understand how to participate!
