I had a lot of fun with Camp Netgalley this month. I played bingo, and although I didn't get one, I checked off a lot of the boxes. I would have loved it if it had gone on for two months, July and August, to give me more time to complete the bingo card. Maybe that is something they can do next year. If you haven't joined Camp Netgalley this year be sure to look for it next summer because it was a lot of fun. I also LOVED the templates they had, they were very eye-catching and fun to tag bookish friends in.

This was such a fun event! I enjoyed the participation and seeing everyone's posts across social media. The bingo board was the MOST fun. I did struggle a little with using the stickers, but I printed the board and did it at home and on TikTok and Instagram. It definitely encouraged me to read and post more to try to get BINGO. I think that NetGalley should do this more often, like a Christmas BINGO board, Spring Break, not just summer camp! But all in all, I think the marketing was successful and hopefully shed a light on ARC readers and the importance of NetGalley! Thank you!! Posting my favorite book of July, with my amazon review for the talent show!

Excellent idea for summer reading fun. My July suddenly became very busy, so I was unable to enjoy the packet to its fullest extent, but I love the execution and hope for more opportunities like this one in the future.

Camp NetGalley was such a fun idea that brought back nostalgic feelings of my youth. The Welcome Packet was very well put together with just the right amount of information and cute graphics. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to participate as much as I would have liked given I was on vacation and had already planned my TBR for the month before this packet was released. In the future, it would be nice if it was sent out a bit earlier for those of us who plan ahead. More interactive aspects via the website instead of social media would also be better for me. Additionally, making the packet available via a browser would greatly help me participate more. I don't have a compatible tablet and there is no way I am reading through everything on my phone.

My favourite part was definitely the Bingo board. The 'This or That' activity was also fun to see on Instagram.

This is so cute!! Thanks netgalley!! Cannot wait to do all the activities! Will definitely look through my reviews and see which one I am most proud of.

Edit: I am adding the link to one of the most recent reviews that I am proud of, the book is The Picture House Murders by Fiona Veitch Smith.

This was very helpful and fun book. I loved the colors and the bingo board! I love using the camp theme for summer.

I didn't participate nearly as much as I would have liked, grad school got in the way :') but I had a lot of fun!! This is a really cool event that I look forward to participating in next year!

this was a neat event, and though I fell behind on my reviews because of other life stuff, it's a very fun idea!

Ok this was such a cool online event. I know I came in at the end but it reminded me of regular camp. I would have done a book camp as much as possible in my younger years.

This was a fun and comprehensive guide to complete the “game/activity” related to the camp. I would like more of these.

Between job applications and a big move to a small town, I did not have enough free time to participate in Camp NetGalley the way I wanted to. That said, all of the activities that I scrolled through seemed like so much fun. Book bingo is an all-time favorite of mine and I love a sticker pack! I also enjoyed seeing NetGalley's This or That circulating on bookstagram. Next year there should be more templates. Getting tagged in a template is an easy way to spread the word about this Camp.

However, I wish the Welcome Packet could have been opened in a browser. I understand the NetGalley is all about downloads, but reading through the packet on my phone, which is how I read e-arcs, wasn't the best format.

This is a totally unique concept. Camp NetGalley is a great idea to encourage and motivate readers. I could not fully participate this year but hope to take part in future challenges.

Sadly, I found this event shortly before the deadline and can't participate anymore. But the idea of it sounds amazing! Hopefully I can participate next year!

This is such a clever idea. I was happy to see an updated version of the toolkit. I think that the talent show is a fun concept and I am interested to see what reviews NetGalley shares.

Camp NetGalley is a fantastic idea to encourage readers during the month of July. The events are all easy to partake in and sound very fun.
The one piece of advice I have is to maybe promote this better, as I didn't hear that Camp NetGalley existed until very late in the month.
A great concept which I'm sure many people loved!

I love this idea - lots of things here which have inspired me to get reading again this summer. What a fun thing to have devised - thank you, NetGalley!

As this is my first summer to participate in the fun, I thought it was easy to follow to along. Ideas for next year, not sure at the moment, as I do not know what has been completed in the past or have seen other examples to compare this years’ to it. Great job keeping the reading energy going throughout the summer!

This is my first year with Camp NetGalley and I had a blast with the Summer reading activities and prompts. The themes stickers are cute and I wished I had known and utilized NetGalley sooner! My favorite activities were the daily scavenger hunt and bingo! The instructions are simple and straightforward. What a great way to earn a virtual camping badge. Highly recommend readers take part.

I was featured more than once on their Instagram story and would definitely participate again next year!

Thank you NetGalley.

I read the welcome packet that outlined the steps and this was such a fun way to get to reading this month.

I really like how it encompassed all of summer for us book lovers.

So cute! You can tell so much thought went into making this for us to have fun with. Thanks, NetGalley.
