This was a fun idea for avid readers to get a little out of our book chairs and into society, but without making us too interactive, lol! I enjoyed following along on the bingo card, and the stickers were great. For next year, it could be fun to have us design a book cover and submit it as a contest!

A fun and great experience learning new ways to use NetGalley, while making my own account unique and fun.
I really like this packet of resources that NetGalley has developed for Summer Readers.
This was a great idea and I hope they continue it and perhaps even extended it further in subsequent years.
Thanks for sharing
I love that NetGalley has created this awesome resource for Summer Readers.
Due to summer reading being the busiest part of my summer, I have been unable to participate but the graphics are excellent, and the activities easy to follow.
Next year, i would like to find a way to make it a program for everyone in my Library to participate maybe win some prizes.
This was a fun, community-building exercise to kick off the summer. Next year, I'd love incentives like prizes (NetGalley swag? Auto-approval status from publishers?) be added into the mix. Will definitely look forward to this next summer. 4 Stars.
I had been in a reading slump for a few weeks but this event + the bingo board made me so excited to choose my upcoming TBR to complete the board! I'm really looking forward to getting to the prompts and through my endless TBR list! :)

Loved this! Growing up, I always wanted to experience the American summer camp experience. I'm in the middle of winter but the sun is still shining and we don't get any snow. I was a bit late to the party but I was eager to join in on the Camp NetGalley fun. It's a great way to keep up with reading and to tick off an achievement or two. Honestly, I probably won't get to finish all the tasks but it has been a good time.
This was so fun, NetGalley!
I’d love to see another book camp done, maybe in the fall? Halloween themed? Would love some more tips & tricks on building your review profile as well.
I really like the idea of summer reviewing challenge on Netgalley. The welcome packet was informative, but I also enjoyed the fun formatting. I especially like participants can earn a badge. I'm intrigued and interested to see entries for the talent show reviews.
A very clever and fun way to promote summer reading and interaction for Netgalley reviewers.
I really wish it had real stickers, though.
I couldn't resist the Camp NetGalley Welcome Packet by We Are Bookish. I was that kid that spent her summers in the library. And my winters...and all the other seasons and free time I had. I loved the idea of a summer camp where you just read new and interesting things and then share your thoughts. BINGO??? YES!!!! This was very fun, and I hope there will be more events in the future like it.
This is SO fun! It's been so fun to see what other campers are posting on instagram! I hope Netgalley does this every summer!
LOVE THIS! I usually don't need incentive to make reading fun, but I certainly won't say no to anything that makes reading more fun! Can we do this again next year!?
Such a cute idea. I love the colors and illustrations. What a great way to keep reading fun!
I hope NetGalley does something like this next year too!
This was a really cute idea! I loved that it included links to the Book Advocate Toolkit, the NetGalley Reading Journal, and some cute stickers. The bingo game was clever, but I was away on vacation part of the month and unable to participate. I would love to see a fall, Halloween or winter camp!
Keep up the creativity, We Are Bookish!!
This is super helpful for navigating Camp NetGalley. :) I enjoyed the read, and the badges, looking forward to completing my bingo.
This was a great fun program for the summer…hope to see more of these 😊 enjoying filling in my bingo card!
NetGalley comes up with some of the coolest things. Such a fun activity to take you through the summer! Thanks Camp NetGalley!
What a fun, summer program for NetGalley members!
I'm having fun filling up my BINGO card! Thanks NetGalley! Please offer programs like this in the future!
NetGalley always knows how to make reading and reviewing more fun. The packet has lots of tips to help us. Thanks, Camp NetGalley!
