perfectly explains how to use & edit the reading journal, even with thorough explanations depending on the app you choose. i've been using a physical journal this whole time but i believe this will be more convenient

A simple user guide for readers & reviewers who want to fully utilize the reading journal, especially for those who are not particularly savvy with NetGalley yet. Thank you NetGalley and We Are Bookish!

I love this entire concept! this gives me a new way of tracking my reading and a nice way to unwind and decompress. Perfect!

I'm always a fan of guides and this one was very nice. I like the FAQ pages and that the answers are simple yet effective.

Useful instructions - it'd be great to add something about being able to use some aspects of the journal on readers too (I was able to use tab links etc. on my Kobo Clara Colour!)

This excellent guide from NetGalley provides a great deal of information that is well organized and thorough.

This user guide was very helpful! Can't wait to use my Reading Journal. I am most looking forward to using the journal to organize my ARC reads, as I don't have a good method for doing so yet.

A perfect companion to the Reading Journal. This User Guide made it easy to fully take advantage of the beautiful NetGalley Reading Journal. Without it, I would have definitely missed out on a lot of fun and cool features of the journal. I highly recommend reading this User Manual before using the journal. It is an easy and clear read.

I really like and appreciate all the time it took to create this reading journal for Netgalley users. There’s lots of stickers and embellishments. The tabs are very helpful as well.

succinct and comprehensive. i love the reading journal and i’m very grateful for the guide on how to use it, as well as the other free resources such as sticker packs that go along with the journal. i also appreciate that there are more instructions within the journal itself, and that the it was clearly created with free apps in mind. if you’ve never used a digital journal before, i’d definitely recommend this guide!

A comprehensive guide that was very useful! It detailed even how to use the stickie notes! The reading journal seemed self-explanatory, but curiosity commanded I download this guide. I regret nothing! The journal, itself, seems much more sophisticated upon understanding this guide.

Love this reading journal, can't wait to start using it. Thank you so much.
I have always struggled with how to organise and track my reading, it has ended up being all over the place. I have tried apps, writing in a physical journal and the notes app on my phone and it all gets really confusing. Excited to try this reading journal and seeing if it works out for me, hopefully this is the one that will finally keep me organised.

Much like the actual journal, this guide has been a wonderful resource for readers to keep track of what they are reading especially if you are someone like me who often forgets to record her books!

It is an amazing companion resource, useful for navigating and instructions to start using the journal.
