Interactive reading journal to help keep up with your reading and goals. I love that it has so many different templates and challenges to keep you motivated over the year.

Cute idea! I can see the amount of work that went into this and really appreciated the freebie. I'd love to see this continued each year with an updated design.

Very thorough! I liked the earth-tone color scheme. There was a section for audiobooks but I wish they had a section for e-books as well.

I generally prefer handwritten journals, so I think this digital journal will take some getting used to, but so far I am finding it to be a lot of fun. It has various activities and challenges to help track my reading. I like that it is fairly customizable with various options, so it does not feel overly constrained. The Goodnotes integration is fairly simple to set up, but it would be nice to be able to use this with other notetaking apps like Apple Notes or Notion. The stickers are also cute and fun to play around with, though I wish the graphics were a bit more modern looking — the current vibe is a bit Windows 95. All in all, I see myself using this throughout the year and keeping it as a helpful record of my reading habits to look back on.

This is a very lovely journal in theory. I am not very savvy with technology or electronically keeping up with a journal as it is. Although I love the lack of paper used, I would have enjoyed a more printer friendly alternative. Perhaps, that could be something to think about. This kind of journal really works on a tablet with the proper app to edit and be able to write in it.

It has a bunch of different pages to keep track of books, reviews, and reading goals for the year. It'll be great for keeping track of all the books I'll read for the year.

Love all things reading and all ways to keep track of what I read and who wrote it and what I thought of it. So glad to get my hands on this - what a treat! I now have a place to record and plan. With so many books on my TBR it's easy to lose track of when a book is being published and so I appreciate having a one-stop-shop for my book obsession!

Very cute planner and it's also proven very helpful to keep track of the books I've read. I will be using this for 2024.

What great treat!!! I was literally planning to start journaling my reading experiences, but was a bit intimidated by the idea of all the stickers and accessories I would have to get to make it a really fun experience. Thankfully. That is no longer a concern because of this digital journal. The format of this journal is quite wonderful has has a lot of useful features. My favorite features are the ability to duplicate pages, which ensures that I'll never run out of space regardless of how many books I read and review. I love the stickers features and the way we can move the pages around to personalize our experience of the journal. Thank you Netgalley for creating this wonderful product.

This would be good for children, though printing 105 pages on a home printer seems unlikely. It's a very visual journal, with places to draw, tape pictures, etc. It would keep a child on track with their reading, especially for out of class required reading assignments and book reports.

The perfect journal to get you started on your book reviewing journey or simply the perfect way to keep track of your reading journey!

Useful for people who want a thorough method of recordkeeping for their reading. Unfortunately, I prefer to spend more time reading and less time documenting.

I was sent this book to try it out as a reading journal. I looked it over and it seems really interesting, but I am not one for book journals.

Nice tool for keeping track of ARCs and reads for the month

NetGalley's book reading toolkit is filled with well-crafted pages set up as graphic organizers to track your reading across the year and collect quotes and other things to remember. It serves as a useful reference for reviewing books and remembering what to include in those reviews.

I loved the pages provided! They were varied and had everything you need to keep track of your reading.

This was a free gift from NetGalley, but I already own reading journals that I use regularly. I downloaded it to my reMarkable tablet, and whether I end up using it at all remains to be seen.
