This journal is very well organized with everything you need to track your reading in a fun creative way. There can be a learning curve with the digital editing aspect of this, but there are many apps that can be used and a helpful guide to assist if you get stuck. The challenges at the end are great inspiration, and I love the monthly check-ins to track your NetGalley progress. The additional bundles you can download to personalize your journal are just a plus. Thanks We Are Bookish for the lovely gift.

This reading guide is very aesthetically pleasing and has amazing features. It works well with many different apps/softwares. It had many reading challenges and monthly check-ins. Lots of thought went behind making this for sure!!

Great way to keep track of what you are reading if you would rather the more journal type than tracking on an app.

A reading journal is not something I would usually consider., and It took me a while to decide to use this, did enjoyed the journaling journey, and I have also recommended this to several persons at my book club.
However, I personally will not continue with a journal, it was good for me as a one of and something different. I just have other tools I use and will continue to do so.

As of this review, the 2023 version of the reading journal is one release behind. The 2024 version was published on 12/16/24. With that being said, both journals are very similar and full of the same great content.

On my review for the newer edition I mentioned the lovely monthly review pages which are still available here. These are great for setting goals and tracking stats month to month. I also like the yearly goals and stats page at the beginning.

Either version would be a great tool for digital journaling of your reading journey, but I’d recommend the newest edition if you haven’t started filling one out yet.

This journal is a great way to keep track of your reading whilst also including some fun activities, challenges and customisations.
I have never tried journaling so I found myself a little lost when navigating it however after some time it became easier to use with the help of the guide.
I will look forward to interacting with this journal and updating my reading habits throughout the year.

I like the idea of it but finding it a bit hard to get used to, especially with requiring special software

Lovely reading journal! The hyperlinks make this journal invaluable. I was easily able to add this to my Goodnotes and start adding in all my netgalley books. It is great being able to see all the book covers and pub dates so I can see what I want to read next. This template is a great intro to book journaling and I highly recommend it.

An absolutely beautiful and perfect way to keep track of my reading all year! I love the customization, the goals, and all the different sections! This will be a great addition to my tracking for 2025!

Great way to keep track of the books you read and making goals. I loved the incorporation of the favorite quotes. Very user friendly as well.

I think this is a great resource for anyone who is trying to organize not only their books, but their thoughts pertaining to the books they read. There are plenty of monthly areas for books to be listed and notes to be taken. While I was unable to view the stickers included in this book (I have a digital copy), I think this is a great journal overall.

I extend my appreciate for NetGalley gifting this journal to me. All thoughts and opinions are my own, free of outside influence.
