Fun Activity. I could not upload anything from my phone. But it kept me busy for a few minutes. I am not sure of what the whole purpose of the exercise. I think it would have been more entertaining in a live group project.

Literally the absolute cutest ! Such a fun challenge tysm team netgalley! I appreciated the opportunity to compete and get more summer reading in which Is phenomenal for someone like me who's a part time cashier and full time student having the time to do these challenges was tedious but so rewarding.

I loved all the ideas in Camp NetGalley! I downloaded the packet, but missed the challenges. I would have loved to be able to opt in for email reminders of the daily challenges

This was a fun and creative idea! I enjoyed the different challenges and seeing what other book lovers were up to as well. This felt kind of nostalgic of when I'd have to read during summer before going back to school.

This guide has really helped me organize my thoughts for submitting feedback when I read. I have had a great time with this program!

Thank you for the opportunity to participate in a bookish "camp" this summer! Such a fun idea! I like the ideas of ways to promote books and different challenges along the way.

Review for Heir, Apparently: This book was interesting. Especially after we nearly had our own apocalypse (covid). I had no idea this book was a sequel when I started it. It wasn't until I looked at the book on GoodReads that I realized that it was the second book. The author did a good job of ensuring the reader knew enough that you could read this without reading the first book. I enjoyed my time reading this novel.

Thank you for all of the fun ways to motivate me into reading more this summer!

It's nice to have an 'adult' summer reading challenge versus seeing all of the kid ones around! Reminds me of school breaks.

What a great way to get us to find all the hidden treasures that are available to NetGalley subscribers! I enjoyed my summer camp experience and hope I get to attend again next year.

This was a great idea! Thank you for sharing something fun and motivating this summer. All the outreach definitely helped remind me to go back and read and review!

What an awesome way to spend the summer. Thank you so much for the fun ideas!

Looking forward to reading this summer

Having the camp packet helped me step out of my comfort zone and gave me different ideas as a book reader/reviewer. The bingo card was my favorite! Maybe for next year, there could be an option of joining a group to share progress with other campers!

Thank you for sending me this kit. I am enjoying my time playing Camp Netgalley bingo nd Sharing with my fellow bookstagrammers
Thank you netgalley

This was a lot of fun! Thanks, NetGalley! It forced me to read a variety of different titles and it was just a fun little challenge.

My only suggestion is to make this a June/July thing rather than just July.

This was a really fun Summer Reading program! I thought the bingo included some tasks that I don’t see often in similar activities. Can’t wait until next year!

Wish stickers were easier to download to use on bingo board. Stopped following after that difficulty

I loved doing this and this rlly helped me with my reading goals and I thought it was something rlly fun to do—since I was in a reading slump it was hard at the start but it was fine after that! 5 out of 5 great time.

Such a fun idea! I hope this becomes an annual challenge 🥳 The instructions are clear and I LOVE the idea of the review contest, can we have more of these please? 🤩

This format didn't really work for me. I like a bingo board, but this focused heavily on things besides books. I'm at a point where it's becoming pretty difficult to raise my feedback ratio-- it's been above 85% for years, and i have reviewed so many books (376 as of this morning) that it takes a few to make a noticeable difference.

Things I would have liked:
- Release the board up to a month in advance, or at least 2 weeks. This would allow readers to plan out their reading more (and save back some reviews, allowing feedback ratio to dip!). In addition to ARCs, I had a number of library books and other commitments I was in the middle of, which kept me from being able to devote as much reading time to this challenge.
- Clarify the method of participation. For this year and for last year's NetGalley summer reading challenge, I only used ARCs/eARCs (from NetGalley or from other sources). Are we supposed to count non-ARC reading? I was out of town during the scavenger hunt, which I was glad of-- were we supposed to just find books, or find new/available ARCs in NetGalley, or only choose from things we had already read, or ARCs we had already read, or...? I know I am an overthinker and I also see some benefits to leaving challenges open to interpretation, but I would like ~something~ more concrete in the way of instructions. :)
- Especially if not releasing the bingo board/challenge list early, consider making the challenge 6 to 8 weeks. This would allow participants a little more flexibility-- especially as it's summer and many people have vacation time, family commitments, extra workload, etc!

The review below is for an eARC I read in July, for the Talent Show portion of the competition. This review has already been shared through the title's NetGalley Feedback to the publisher.

So fun to be a part of this! I love doing things like this during the summer. Brings back memories of summer reading at the library.
