This journal is very cool!! I like that you can track your reading with it. I love tracking my reading trends and seeing how they change year to year so this is perfect for that!

super cute! love the idea and execution. Very pleasing to use but also very aesthetically pleasing for those who like/ care for the aesthetics

This reading journal didn't really work for me. I need something more basic, I think. But I'm glad I had the chance to try this way.

This is such a fun and wonderful idea for tracking your reading. I need to figure out how to edit it!? ha but also while I love the romantic idea of journaling in a physical journal I don't know if I personally have the bandwidth to do so along with updating this site, storygraph, goodreads and amazon or google with my reviews. I love sharing my reviews so much and this would probably be better for someone more introverted or who already physically journals daily.

Wonderful journal and a great addition to compliment my reading obsession! Is beautiful to look at too!

This journal is a good idea, but it doesn't work for me personally. I don't want to have to download an app to use it and I don't want to have to print out the pages to write on manually. If it would populate automatically with my Netgalley reviews, book covers, etc., I would use a journal like this more. But as it is, it's just another chore for me to use and fill out. Some other readers may love it, but it's not useful to me personally.

I like the idea, and contents, of this Journal very much, however, I couldn't seem to be able to interact with the Journal on my tablet as I was supposed to, as I'm unable to get the app that I need.

I don't think there is enough room for the reviews, or to include my workings-out. I suppose this says more about my long ramblings than anything else.

The title of the document should be the name of the work instead of numbers, no wonder some people couldn't find it after downloading!

I would prefer the Journal to be in print. I'm old-school that way. Would I remember to actually update the information, though? Probably not. I'd be giving myself more work. Goodreads has everything I have ever read and reviewed on it. I don't need anything else, sorry, but thank you for the gift, NetGalley.

I like this reading journal. I have looked at it, but haven't used it yet. Thank you for creating it for us to keep track of all of our great reads!

Love this! Was looking for something like this, while also trying not to fuel my notebook-buying addiction, and this is just perfect! Can't wait to fill it with books.

I love this! It has everything I love in a reading, journal and more. And I love that it’s specific to NetGalley. It looks like it would be easy to use, even for folks not very technology literate. I like how each month has a different quote. I like how you can keep all your reviews in one place, kind of a compilation instead of having to search for all your reviews. This looks very user-friendly… I clicked on a few tabs and was pleasantly surprised how easy it is to get from point to point B. I think this reading journal is great and I wish I had a paper copy to keep by my bedside! Thank you NetGalley… You are amazing !

Thank you for the cute Christmas freebie; I loved the bite sized review section which I will definitely be using each month.

I struggled to work with this. It's a good idea, I just don't think it's for me. I am still too fond of pen and paper!

It's great analogue way to record your reading. Excellent for school kids who cannot use Goodreads, for example.

Love this writing journal! I use it on my iPad with my Apple Pencil and it’s wonderful! I have been trying to get better at writing something for each book that I read this year and this journal is helping me a chive that goal!

Fun way to track! Not sure if I'll be using it since I've got my book review website and other ways of tracking, but I may use with my kids.

Pretty cool journal. I really like the activities at the end (Habit Tracker, NetGalley Bingo, Categories Challenge, etc.). A great tool to help with my reading.

It's been a couple of years since I've been doing my book journal using physical notebooks. However, since I can't bring my notebooks every time I go, I'm now into digital journal. Luckily, NetGalley has their own reading journal. It so good! It can be customized with reading challenges and habit tracker dedication page. I really love NetGalley for giving us ways to make our reading habit more fun and enjoyable.

Excellent journal! Perfect to keep track of your reviews! Will be using this year :) There are different ways of tracking what you read.

This is really cool! It could be really neat to use if you were a digital journaler. I'm not, but I liked how you could jump to each of the different sections and months easily.
