Beautiful journal, I love that it is customizable and at a first glance it fits all my needs.

The color scheme is so pretty, the layout and design is perfect for bookworms like myself. I'm gonna use this for more than just books on NetGalley! So I might need some more pages per month, but that's easy to do.

Thank you for making this journal available!

I didn't end up using this as much as I thought I would. It was nicely organized by complicated to use if I tried it on anything other than a computer.

I found the NetGalley Reading Journal incredibly useful and enjoyable! It helped me stay organized with my reading goals, track my habits, and write thoughtful reviews. The customizable pages and fun stickers made the whole experience engaging and motivating. A fantastic tool for any book lover looking to deepen their reading journey!

A clean, practical reading journal perfect for tracking ARCs and pretending you’re more organized than you are. The layout is simple and useful, with enough space to jot down thoughts.

This journal is lovely! It has most of the main fields I track for my reading. I'm not sure if I'll keep up with it (but that's on me).

I like the overall thought for each month but why make this a pdf where you need to install another app to edit. Why not just make this an app to start with? Also, I don't really journal so it would be helpful if the journal pages had more direction on what to document to write a review.

I absolutely love NetGalley's Reading Journal by We Are Bookish. This edition has such beautiful, earthy tones that make journaling feel incredibly cozy. I also appreciate that it is in PDF Format. Because of this, I can import the document into Canva to make digital adjustments or edit directly in PDF. This makes the journal so much more accessible for those who may have difficulty writing with a pen. My favorite part about the reading journal is the activities section, which includes a NetGalley Bingo Board to make reading new books exciting, alphabet and category challenges, and more. As someone who loves checking off a list, these types of challenges are so helpful in expanding my horizons with books I otherwise may not have picked up!

Highly recommend this journal! 10/10!

Thank you to Netgalley for a free copy of this amazing reading journal!! I have tried so many reading journals and this is by far my favorite electronic journal!! I love using it to track my reads in an organized manner, and express myself creatively. The journal is overall aesthetic, easy to navigate, and it has many features, including book stickers! Definitely recommend if you are looking for a reading journal! Thank you Netgalley!

I absolutely love this reading journal, especially to separate my ARC reviews and thoughts from those of my already released reads. It also helps to draft my replies before I place them here. 10/10 would recommend and I will continue to use this for months to come.

Super cute, well designed! I didn't realize these We Are Bookish tools existed on NetGalley until I happened across them. I don't know if I would have found them otherwise, but I think it could be useful to promote them more because they're great!

When the We are Bookish team announced that they were going to offer this resource for our community I was so thrilled. I did not realize that they would continue to provide sporadic updates to their free download resource for us to enjoy even more than previously! I was so happy to see the diversity your TBR and other bundles appear - I know some love stickers which is a win for that group as well. For me I love seeing the goals and check ins and going back and looking at them at the end of the year! Thank you again for providing it for us.

I really liked this reading journal. It has plenty of room for any books you may read or want to read. I like that there are pages where you can make lots of goals for any of your reading desires. I also enjoy the post-month check-ins. It's a good way to track your progress and to make future goals. The challenges at the end of the journal are all interesting! The A-Z challenge is creative and something I wanted to finish. I enjoyed creating my own bookshelf with the books I have read. I think that the yearly wrap-up was so fun too with the bracket and everything. I would absolutely love this in a physical copy because I know I would definitely stick with logging my reading more if I had a physical journal. I found it hard to keep up with the digital journal, but I still loved it.
