I truly love the idea and layout of this reading journal not maybe I can keep on track with my NetGalley reads last year was a mess and I apologize to all the people who gave me the opportunity to read their books and I epically failed a leaving feedback before publishing date…thank you to the person/people who created this journal it’s definitely going to make my reading life a little easier.

What a great tool for avid readers. It is well laid out and gives the reader a variety of options for recording their books.
Thank you so much NetGalley.

I have been wanting to start a book journal for a while, this is a good starting point to accomplish this goal!

Nice journal! Very useful. I cannot wait to fill it out with all the books I'll be reading this year!

I can't wait to start using this reading journal for my upcoming and finished books that i've read this year, will help me keep a log of everything i've read and the star reviews i've given them.

Thank you so much for this! I loved all the tips and tricks for making NetGalley work for you. This space has been such a fun way to be kept in-the-know about titles from my favorite publishers and authors. I appreciate all that the Netgalley team does to keep users and publishers active and engaged!

So excited to start using this reading journal and keeping a more detailed list of all my reads for this year!

This is a very nice journal. It does what it's supposed to do. Not much else that can be said about a journal.

This reading journal is pretty simple and straight forward. I enjoy using it while I keep track of my 2024 reads.

Many thanks for the publisher and NetGalley for the advanced copy!
This is a great tool for all avid readers! Thanks to NetGalley for making something like this available to it's audience!

Thank you for your feedback on the Netgalley Reading Journal! I'm glad to hear you're enjoying the current features, such as the "My Bookcase" template and the variety of bookshelf categories. Adding additional bookshelf templates with a greater capacity sounds like a fantastic idea to accommodate avid readers.
Expanding upon the individual book review templates and incorporating layouts like the "Best of the Year" section are noted as positive aspects, which we'll aim to maintain and enhance.
Your suggestion for a Year Overview spread or monthly layout with space for upcoming book release dates is brilliant. This addition would indeed help reviewers stay organized and informed about their reading schedule.
Regarding the Habit Tracker, while aesthetically pleasing, we'll evaluate its practicality to ensure it's user-friendly for all readers.
Expanding the available writing space on pages like the Yearly Goals and Monthly Trackers for goals is a great point. We'll consider allocating more space to accommodate detailed goal setting.
Thank you again for your valuable input! We'll work on incorporating these tweaks to improve the overall experience of the reading journal.

Thank you for the Netgalley Reading Journal! I love the blank "My Bookcase" template and different categories bookshelf, encouraging you to read more widely. Perhaps we could have another bookshelf template or two with a greater number of books for those speedy readers? The individual book review templates are great! I'm also a fan of the Best of the Year layout.
I'd love to see the tweaks below to make the reading journal even better! I would love to see a two-page spread Year Overview of dates, or a monthly one, with space to write upcoming book release dates. I think this would help reviewers stay organised with their reading and reviewing. I'm not sure how user-friendly the spiral format of the Habit Tracker is (as pretty as it looks!) It would also be handy to have more blank space to write per goal on the Yearly goals page and the goals section on the Monthly trackers goals.

I’m so excited to start using this reading journal! I love the layout of the pages and really enjoy that it’s split into months. I’m looking forward to using the habit tracker and filling in my bookshelf as I go along; I can’t wait to do the round up at the end of the year. This is going to be so helpful for all my reading this year - thank you netgalley!

Thank you NG - this reading journal is fabulous I can’t wait to use it. The format of the monthly check ins is perfect, I’m so happy to have a template. Hope to use it on IG too

Finally managed to open this and love it! Dummy safe to use and love that it goes month by month. Also I appreciate that it only has 4 pages per month as makes people who aren't able to read a lot of books in a month feel better and less anxious.

Being offered the journal has allowed me the chance to start digital journaling which has been really enjoyable, I started a new year with the journal and have loved adding all of my current reads and reviews.
Thank you NetGalley! 💕

A really pretty and cohesive reading journal. The journal is perfect for using on your Ipad and for reviewing books. It also has a section for recording your NetGalley ratio.

This reading journal is actually super pretty. If you're the type to love physical journaling, I can imagine that this one is going to be really good. Unfortunately, I am not one of those people - but I do appreciate a bit of pretty graphic design, which this one has in bunches. Thank you so much for uploading tools like this!

So excited to track my reading!! this looks so fun. I'm always looking for a beautiful way to show my process

I guess if this is going to count toward my percentage, I’ll go ahead and provide feedback. Thanks NetGalley for this reading journal!
