Helpful. Don't think there's much else I can say, really. Worth a glance if you're starting out on NetGalley I guess.

This quick guide helped me navigate the reading journal with ease. Having no prior experience with digital planners, I especially appreciated the app suggestions for using the journal effectively.

Very informative and easy to read. I hadn’t used a digital journal before and this gave me easy and clear instructions.

Thank you for this guide to the NetGalley Reading Journal! I found it super helpful, and it walked me through setting up a Goodnotes account.

I tried to use the Journal, but in many ways, I'm old fashioned.

I got frustrated with trying to figure everything out. While I appreciated the help the user guide provided it was time consuming. I'm not a blogger, I usually review on retail sites, Goodreads and Bookbub. And I spend most of my day on the computer while I'm at work. It just became overwhelming trying to keep up with entries.

I found it easier to keep a physical reading journal, and to keep my records in note cards. Like I said, old fashioned.

Very useful guide! I can't seem to figure out how to get the sticker packs to work in goodnotes, but I'm not sure I would use them too much anyways to be honest.

This gave allot of helpful information about the journal and how to use it. I didn’t think I would use it until I did. Thank you very much.

This was a nice, condensed guide about using the reading journal. I look forward to trying out the suckers and learned more about note-taking apps like Goodnotes. Thanks for the freebie!

This is a fantastic helpful tool for anyone who reviews books on the regular for Netgalley! I have never used a journal before but am excited to get started and with all the helpful instructions, anyone can do this! There are also some pointers for downloading things like stickers and check out the YouTube video, also very helpful! Thanks Netgalley!

Very helpful guide for the reading journal! I really liked the way the user guide makes it easier understand how to use the reading journal to the fullest extent. It even breaks down tutorials on how to use it with different apps such as Goodnotes and Xobo!

This is the perfect resource for getting started with the reading journal! As someone who is new to using a digital journal, this helped to answer all of my questions.

A helpful guide for those new to netgalley. As someone who was very new to netgalley, this was a helpful guide of tips and tricks for how to navigate and request books.

This user guide does not include a critical point: the file is 6.6MB and the iPhone Goodnotes app requires an upgrade for files larger than 5MB. So I wasn’t able to use the journal, but otherwise the user guide and journal seem nice.

This helped some to use the guide but wasn't super helpful when flipping back and forth between the 2 books. Would prefer an easier method

The NetGalley Reading Journal User Guide is so helpful! I love how it recommends the best app to use it with depending on your phone/tablet type. This is exactly what I have been looking for and will be downloading the journal next!

A simple but comprehensive guide that introduces the Reading Journal to the NG users! It explains how to connect the Journal to note-keeping apps.
