Very excited for this newest journey!! Can’t wait to go to Camp this month with everyone!! I love bingo, especially Bookish Bingo! I also saw mention of a scavenger hunt, and who doesn’t love a good scavenger hunt!
This is such a fun idea! I love the Bingo board and the fact the so many of us will be participating. Getting us together online as a group is so important.
This is so exciting! A month long experience. A Bingo game woth activiites to complete and share! Radong badges to earn!
This sounds like the perfect "Camp" for a librarian or teacher or any book loving person wanting to participate in an easy and
fun reaing time!
I’m officially in NetGalley Summer Camp!
Attached is my review for Agony Hill:
The first in a new series, Agony Hill did not disappoint! This book transported me back in time to the slower way of life of the 1960s. Set in a small rural town, with lush farmland descriptions with a quaint town with a green, this mystery was such a welcome change of pace for me and I loved every minute of it!
When the town outlier dies mysteriously in his own barn, locked from within, the new detective in town has no choice but to get to know the town’s people as he questions them about this mysterious death. But he has his own skeletons in his closet.
I enjoyed getting to know this town right along side Warren, and I enjoyed the colorful cast of characters. They were well developed and added to the charm of this historical mystery. But don’t be deceived, this novel isn’t cheery and cute. It’s serious and dark and brooding. Agony Hill is smart, sharp, and leaves you always guessing. I was surprised by the ending for more than one reason, and I look forward to seeing where this series goes!
I received a free digital copy of the book from the publisher, all opinions are my own.
Super fun idea, and perfect for getting myself back into the groove of reading and reviewing during the summer!
This is so cool of you NetGalley! We appreciate feeling like a kid again during the summertime! Thank you for thinking of us!
I’ve been loving the ability to listen to audiobooks on Net Galley for the last month. Great way to read up and coming books while I am getting things done
I just downloaded my Camp NetGalley Welcome Packet and it looks so fun! Looks like I'm headed to adult summer book camp and by the way, why isn't that a real thing? Can't wait to get started on my Camp NetGalley Bingo card! Thanks for the summer book fun especially with the heat wave in Texas!
Can’t wait for this!!!
My entry to the talent contest is Enemies to lovers by Laura Jane Williams. The perfect summer read!

This is the first time I'm trying this out, but it already looks like fun. If I end up having a lot of fun, I'll recommend my students do something like this as well. My favorite part will probably be the bingo! The only thing is that I need to figure out how to put the materials onto my iPad, which will allow me to "put" stickers on the bingo card. Overall, I'm looking forward to this "camp"!
I am so excited for this! When I saw the announcement on instagram I ran to snag the welcome packet. It’s the perfect way to kick off a fabulous month of arcs. I love the bingo board and the weekly schedule and I’m always excited for the chance to earn a new badge. Thank you so much for doing this and I sincerely hope this becomes a regular thing. I’d love to see monthly themed challenges all year round!
This is a fun idea! I like the various different "activities," especially the bingo card. It would be really neat if there were physical prizes next time.
Camp NetGalley sounds really fun and I can’t wait to earn my badge. The welcome packet explains everything very well and I’m looking forward to doing all the fun activities.
Such a nice and fun challenge for the month of July! I’m excited to get started and be motivated to read more. Fun stickers, bingo, and the talent show sounds really fun! I’m excited!
