Camp NetGalley was a really fun way to interact with other book lovers, and learn more about NetGalley as a whole! I really enjoyed the Book Advocate Toolkit, and (if Camp NetGalley returns) would love to see more informational packets with further advice and example how to dos!

Very exciting as a book enthusiast!
I love the bingo board. The stickers are a nice bonus
Very fun
I can't wait for next year's camp

This is so much fun! I cannot wait to start this! I'm always down for some book bingo! I also am curious if the favorite review has to be a Net Galley book that we received or if it can be any. Also is it supposed to be any book we've reviewed in the past or only ones we have written during the camp program?

I loved doing this! It was a great way to keep me involved during the summer months. I appreciate the hard work that went into this! Thanks for making summer reading so much fun. I hope there are more events like this throughout the year.

I always wanted to go to summer camp and now I had the chance. This was a great way to feel included and there were so many fun activities. Thank you! Also, I agree with the comment that we should do a hide and seek next year!

This is such a fun activity for the month! I realize that I've joined pretty late in the month but that doesn't mean that this isn't an exciting activity to take part of! I love bingo boards and the prompts are all such fun!

Loved the fun activities and the cute way of brining the community together. I hope there are more events like this in the future.

Camp NetGalley was a fun addition to my summer reading plan. The Bingo options were interesting with just the right amount of challenge. The stickers were beautiful and very well designed.

Very helpful and I love that NetGalley is hosting an event like this. I loved being a part of this NetGalley camp event and I hope they have it again next year.

I really enjoyed participating in Camp NetGalley this month. What a fun activity and way for members to stay engaged. Bingo was my favorite activity, but I really did enjoy everything. I really liked collecting stickers for the reading journal - so fun! I hope there is something like this in the wintertime as well - as it could help with the doldrums for sure. Next year, I’d love to see something like completing a number of tasks to receive the badge (maybe like - do something out of your comfort zone, like posting a video review for your next ARC!).

This was such a unique way to spend the summer on NetGalley. I think it brought so many people together. I wish it was a little more manageable
On the website since I don't use the app very much. Or maybe a hide and seek situation where we can search for a book. I have no idea. But it is really fun!

This is such a fun idea and I wish I had more time to devote to it. I got started with it but got busy with summer things and sort of dropped away. I loved playing bingo. I do think if I had a few more ARCs on my shelf it would have been more of a focus for me.
But! I will look forward to trying again next summer!

I love the Camp NetGalley packet!! Fun challenges and the bingo is great!! I’d love to see more activity packets in the future!

Thank you to NetGalley and We Are Bookish for the opportunity to check this out in exchange for my honest review!

This is a fun concept to gather like minded readers and to advocate reading in general.

It would have been better if there were email alerts to remind participants of the various activities/tasks outside of the site (though that might be a generational thing, as I'm not on many of the popular social media platforms) nor am I as extroverted as I should be in participating in the various activities.

Nevertheless, I'm sure it'll be a success and a start of a great new program!

This was fun. I really enjoyed the diversity on the bingo card and all of the fun activities. I wish it had been better advertized, I found it late in the month and didn't have time to the activities but I've saved them for another time.

I appreciate NetGalley's effort to create engaging activities, but I didn't understand how to participate in this. Each week was supposed to have additional downloads - no idea where those are accessed. Fun idea!

I think this is a really great idea, and a great program. However, I am still new to NetGalley and I am slightly confused. The Welcome Packet contains fun things, but I am also quite lost on where to proceed from here. I will do my best to figure it out, but could use slightly more clear direction.
