NetGalley Camp welcome packet. Excited for summer reading! Ready to add some new titles to my list and hopefully find some good reads.

Fun and inclusive summer time activities to increase a reader’s engagement online with other readers. A fun way to share one’s love of reading. The templates are easy to download. The fun stickers to add to the journal selection.

Camp NetGalley is a fun challenge to keep you motivated and active in the summer. Really, who doesn't love summer camp?

This is a pretty cute idea. Although I’m a little confused by the talent show. I think I’m doing this right so hopefully my review counts towards the talent show.

I love nothing so much as a challenge. I was always the kid who earned pledges for how many books I would read during the summer — and it was a lot. I hit my Goodreads 2024 reading challenge goal less than halfway through the year, and it was an ambitious goal. So I am all in on NetGalley summer camp! I love the weekly prompts and am especially looking forward to the social media challenge week and the revamped book advocate toolkit. I am really enjoying my experience here, but always anxious to learn, and would love to be leveraging my social media presence in a more robust way to promote the books and authors I love. Thanks for an engaging community event!

This is such a fun idea and help tackle my NetGalley TBR!! I can't wait to complete some bingo items and seeing everyone that will be participating.

Super excited for Camp NetGalley! I love the Book Bingo and Instagram story templates. I can’t wait for the week of July 15-21 and the scavenger hunt!
I think these interactive type of things really help connect NetGalley users to each other. This also helps spread the word of NetGalley and introduce those that may not be familiar with it to it.
Next year I would love more templates to share. Please see my attached link for a recent review I am super proud of and as my entry into the Talent Show!

This is such a fun idea. I always love ways to discover new books. The bingo had me finding new books to read outside my normal genre.
I am super competitive so the idea of a contest for badges is very appealing to me.
Ideas for next year: I think it would be fun to get books with the camp to earn badges. This could help me get even further out of my comfort zone.
Overall I think this is a fun idea and I look forward to the other things to come.

I'm looking forward to this challenge! I haven't been interested in joining one in a long time. Camp NetGalley caught my attention!

This is an amazing idea! So much fun to have weekly ideas that ramp up an already enjoyable activity. Wish I had found this 6 days sooner hahah

My favorite review is the following from Goodreads for My Penguin Year:
This book is a story of resilience in extreme circumstances. Both the author and the penguins he is filming face numerous challenges. Great book to start off the new year. Highly recommend.

Camp NetGalley is a fun summer program for readers! I'm looking forward to playing BINGO and participating in other camp events.

Wow. I love this! Camp NetGalley Welcome Packet is such a fun, engaging and unique concept for readers!

Camp NetGalley is such a fun idea & I am already thoroughly enjoying the activities just one week in! It’s always fun to gameify a task & the ability to earn a badge is solid. It’s been a great motivation to help me catch up since I’ve had a rough few months & have fallen behind. I look forward to the following weeks & their activities! And to meeting other NetGalley-ers on social media!

A fun way to engage with other NetGalley users - will update with suggestions and feedback as I finish the activities!

Fun summer reading challenge with resources for bookish fans. Journal, stickers, Bingo and challenges included for a fun season. 5/5 stars

I find the digital download a little confusing. I couldn’t figure out how to get the stickers at all! I think the idea of Camp NetGalley is cute, but it’s difficult to maneuver in.

Does this actually need feedback? It’s counting as a book I didn’t read so I guess it does.
It looks like a super fun challenge though! I enjoyed the graphics and it looks like a fun and easy thing to do during the month of July?

Okay this is a fun and interactive summer challenge! I'm going to try to do the bingo and other fun activities as well.

Many thanks for the fun suggestions. I didn't do so well in bingo but it was fun to play anyway. I will be posting my favorite review from a book that I'm still thrilled to have been able to read. Let's go Camp NetGalley!
