Here is my review of Go To Hell by Erika Engelhaupt:

She does it again! Engelhaupt has an outstanding ability to take science- based topics and present them in an informative yet totally approachable and exciting way. I was blown away by Gory Details and Go to Hell will be another I will be recommending as I begin impatiently waiting for the next book by my newest auto-buy author!

In Go To Hell, we venture across the globe to find places associated with concept of Hell through folklore, physical features, unlivable conditions, and otherworldly attractions. While I enjoyed reading about each one of these places and their connection to the concept of Hell, I can safely say that not all the locations made it on my personal destination bucket list as many were truly -well- hellish!

This was a bit fun from Netgalley! I like any excuse to pretend it's not winter in Aotearoa-New Zealand!

Well, this was a fun way to enhance the NetGalley experience. I liked that it had ideas of ways to stretch reading in different ways - by types of books, by activities, and by finding good "stuff" to read. I also liked that it added a layer of community to the NetGalley experience - something I hope continues. Thanks to NetGalley for adding a neat dimension to being a reviewer on here!

I found this to be a really fun way to add a little additional interaction between NetGalley reviewers. It was great to play along on social media and see what others were adding to the discussion.

This was my first time doing "Camp Netgalley" and it is adorable! I love the Bingo, although I was not able to get a full bingo. I think it would be fun in the future to earn points for doing different activities that enter you into a raffle of some sort! One of my libraries is doing that this summer and I love it.

This was a cute idea. It didn't work with my Christmas in July theme, but was still a cool idea! I hope they do something like this again.

What a fun way to celebrate summer! I love all the positive attention focused on the NetGalley reviewers!

I loved Camp NetGalley and will absolutely be participating next year. I would love to see it expand beyond Instagram and find a home on TikTok with video challenges and book clubs and cabin hashtags. I think it would be fun to have a quiz sort participants into cabins and have weekly cabin competitions across social media platforms where participants in winning cabins get exclusive prizes.

Oh there are so many positive things to say about Camp NetGalley! From the colorful and lively branding to the fun month-long activities, Camp NetGalley provided many opportunities to explore new stories and broaden one's typical book preferences. If I had to share one area of improvement for future summers, I wish there were weekly recap newsletter/emails that also gave campers reminders of current and upcoming weekly events. Summer is a busy time and I admittedly did not give the bingo card as much time and energy as I hoped because I unfortunately forgot about it a few times throughout the month. Little email reminders would have been great!

Here are review links to my favorite July read!

Wish I had been able to participate more, it looked like fun but work life got in the way and it was over before I realised

Camp NetGalley is such a great idea. I wish I could’ve participated more. The weekly activities sounded really fun. I’ll definitely participate more next year. It would be cool to have something similar to this every season!

This is what every reader wants in a book. A strong start that never let's up until the final page. I would highly recommend this book, especially if your looking for a captivating summer read.

Camp Netgalley is such a fun idea! There were plenty of fun activities/challenges but my favourite was the bingo board (even if I didn’t complete that many squares of it).

I found it well done and useful as there's a lot of hint and ideas. It's strongly recommended. Many thanks for this work

Cute idea! I love that you can earn badges. Thanks for putting this together NetGalley. Hope you do this again next summer too.

Camp NetGalley is for the long-time member or if you’re just getting started. It has weekly activities for all to enjoy. Even has stickers.

The Camp NetGalley was a whole lot of fun! I particularly enjoyed the camp bingo! There is something for everyone. Will participate again next year!
