It was definitely a fun challenge and would love to see more in the future. I also liked that certain books would be suggested or could be instantly read.

This was such a fun concept for summer! A great combination of summer nostalgia and book-ish fun. I'm already looking forward to next year :)

Camp NetGalley 2024 was an exciting virtual event with weekly activities like Bingo, scavenger hunts, and a Talent Show for book reviews. Even though I couldn't participate, I thought it was awesome 🌟. The event felt like a real camp with fun tasks, exclusive stickers, and the chance to earn a special badge 🏅. Sharing experiences on social media helped create a strong community vibe 📱. Overall, it was a fantastic summer event, and I plan to join next year! 💖📖

Here’s a review I’m very proud of. Thanks so much for this opportunity.

I loved the concept of this, but sadly just didn't have the time this summer to fully participate as much as I wanted to.

Had lots of fun at Camp Netgalley!! Thought the instructions were a little confusing, but hope I met the requirements.

I thought that this was the coolest idea!! Thank you for creating this for all netgalley readers/users. This urged me to find new authors I otherwise would have not thought about. I hope there’s another opportunity to do this again soon.

I really loved the concept of the Camp Netgalley. Anything that encourages me to work my way through those arcs is a welcome! I really liked the range of activities however, I didn't find the pdf format user friendly for me. I think this might be better worked through social media with the activities posted weekly in a range of formats to 1)remind you about the challenge and 2)would help make it more user friendly. As a teacher in the UK, July is a really hectic time and I didn't have the time to sit and go through it all. I think making this a weekly challenge would really help in the future.

I enjoyed the idea of Camp NetGalley, I think the only feedback I would give is to send out reminders of the weekly events. I know I missed a few because I just forgot. Overall I think it’s a fun way to engage with reading.

I think Camp NetGalley a good idea, but it wasn’t really for me. I would love to see how NetGalley changes/improves future reading challenges!

I nearly forgot I was doing this. I’m glad to get the reminder by email to review the packet.
I just read the packet and it sounds like fun! I like the merit badge idea especially.
I am proud of my review for this book:

Here’s why I’m proud, when I went to post my review on StoryGraph the book was not in their system yet. I am actually the user who added this book into StoryGraph.

I really love the idea of the camp! Unfortunately, I didn't have as much time to read or participate as I had hoped. Even though I wasn't as active this time around, I truly enjoyed the experience and the concept. I'm excited about the possibility of the camp returning next year, and I'm looking forward to being more involved and making the most of the opportunity.

This was a fun and cute welcome packet and I hope that NetGalley will do it again next year. I really enjoyed the bingo and scavenger hunt.

This is a fun event for everyone for the summer! Hopefully everyone else enjoys it too! Love being a part of Netgalley!

The visual design of this packet is so cute! I'm really excited to participate in the challenges throughout the month. There is a great variety of ways to participate in this challenge that I believe will encourage readers to engage more deeply with NetGalley in July.

Fun idea, but not all that helpful………………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………
Please try again this Fall……………………..

THis was a great summer challenge packet! Still playing the bingo game. Hope to see more of these seasonal challenges in the future!

This was a really fun idea! I found the weekly activities a little confusing or wasn't able to do them- like downloadable stickers? - and I think I would have liked to have see the bingo go for the entire time and not just one week. Maybe that was me misinterpreting and I know some YouTubers do a one week readathon but there are far less prompts to complete. If you could put the checklist and/or the bingo in the Netgalley app, that would be cool. overall, fun idea and want to see more!

Camp NetGalley was a fun summer activity! I loved playing BINGO and seeing how others on social media chose their bunks. Thanks for the opportunity to interact with other bookstagrammers this summer!

Thank you so much for this fun opportunity. I am sorry it ended too soon for me to fully participate.
