Such a great idea! I look forward to filling this in as I read this year and having one place for all my reviews.

A decent reading journal. Some nice challenges in it. The layout was ok. I'm not sure however, if I will end up using it.

Well organized and a lot of fun! I would opt for better colors in the .PDF, but that's minor and fixable. Thanks, NG!

This is too challenging in a digital format, but in a paper format, this is a really great tool for readers. I would use it in a paper format. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC.

It is a very good journal with great aesthetics and prompts. I am new to any kind of journaling so the digital format seems a bit difficult for me to use. I don't know what I was thinking when I requested this but definitely would use it if it were in a paper format.

This will be useful. I can see that I will spend a lot of time using this to track exactly which books I read this year.

This is very nicely done but I think I would prefer to have a paper version. If this was produced as a physical product I would be more likely to use it.

What a great way to record the books and info about the books you read. It is very easy to use and helps a reader stay organized! Thank you to NetGalley for providing this!

I was surprised at how much I loved this! The color scheme for the journal is muted, making the whole journal very aesthetically pleasing. I use GoodNotes for note taking, so I found it very easy to upload this into the app and start writing in it. My favorite part is probably that it has a book bracket for your end of the year review, I thought that was such a cute idea. The hyperlinks were also a nice touch that made it very use-able. This journal is perfect for anyone who loves to journal, but doesn’t want to put in the effort to make something cute and easy to navigate.

Thanks to Netgalley and We are Bookish for providing me with this journal. An excellent and handy guide for readers who want to keep a reading journal!

I think this journal is so much fun! I like that it's electronic, so I can edit much easier. I like being able to paste in the book covers. I like that I will be able to use it year after year too! What a great resource!

This is a cute and useful way to track your reading. I love the color scheme of the journal/journal guide and corresponding stickers combined with the simple, but impactful, line drawing illustrations. I had some difficulty figuring out how to add the stickers on my ipad (an older model), though I think that is more of a user error. Overall, I really liked the journal and am thankful to Netgalley/We Are Bookish for making these!

I’ve been looking for a journal just like this! The individual book entry pages are exactly what I needed to be intentional about what I’m reading! This was a wonderful gift! Thank you NetGalley team and WeAreBookish!

This doesn't appear to be mobile friendly or at least I can't get it to work on my iPad or iPhone, I will attempt to download it onto my laptop for the simple sake of being able to explore the options being provided to us by Netgalley. I truly appreciate them providing this however just truly wish I could get it to work on my mobile devices as that's where I do most of my reading and therefore my logging for reading activities - having to log into the laptop to add to my journal is just not super convenient and not really what I was looking for from a digital tracker standpoint.

This has everything you could possibly want in a reading journal from being able to track your reads and your Netgalley shelf to book review structures and so much more.
I just need a tablet or computer to take advantage of all it has to offer as it's a bit small on my phone to fully get to grips with it.

A very comprehensive reading journal with a lot of information that's still easily digestible. Looking forward to seeing how I can incorporate this into my 2024 year of reading.

I'm new to book journaling, but this seems like a great intro for me! Lots of detail and aesthetically pleasing!

I most likely won't be using this, as I'm not that fancy with my recording of reads, but it looks like a really nice setup for those are into this sort of journaling. It's very detailed and has everything you could want, The activities and challenges look like they'd be a fun way to expand your reading and try different genres.
