Thanks for the reading journal, it’s awesome! I will use it to log the books I want to read and the books I’ve already read!

This is a cool reading journal for NetGalley users to track with! The designs and color scheme are really cute. The user can use this journal to track their goals for feedback and number of books to read.

This is a colorful journal with lots of space for reviewing, sharing favorites, and self-reflection. I like the explanation about NetGalley and its purpose at the beginning of the journal to give readers a better understanding of how NetGalley functions.
What I am not a fan of is that there are only two ways to interface with the journal where you can document your progress directly into the document: Goodnotes app for iOS and macOS and Xodo app for Android, iOS, and Windows.
The journal is a super cute and fun idea, but it only has a couple ways to interface with the reading journal and is limited to certain readers and not available to all readers.

A fun journal for keeping track of your Netgalley reads. My only critique would be I that I wish it had an alternate layout for text only writing journals. Since I use reading journals on my Remarkable 2, I can use the journal but since logging them requires photo instead of just a space to write the titles in, it's not ideal for what I would use it for. I think if you're using this on an iPad, tablet or computer, it would be great.

A very nice little reading journal. The monthly check-ins and individual book review pages are simple, which I enjoy-- they don't feel bogged down by unnecessary inclusions or distracting graphics. The extra activities were also very nice, and I will absolutely be utilizing the habit tracker!

Even MORE beautiful than the last. I love the added vibrant colors. I am already familiar with digital Journaling and this is very nice for keeping track of specifically NetGalley reads as well as keeping track of my other reads. The short tips in the beginning of the journal are very helpful and I liked the option if extra pages with fun little reading challenges.

I usually use a digital platform to track my reading but have really enjoyed tracking my reading manually with this journal! It is visually and aesthetically pleasing, easy to follow and navigate and fun to journal in! My favorite part is the activity section! I have sent this to other readers to try and would love to try a pen/paper copy of this Reading Journal.

Thank you NetGalley for that reading journal! Such a great idea, thank you for that! I look forward to using it

I love that NetGalley provides a companion journal for using their site and accessing electronic advanced reader copies. I am stuck in my ways of using a paper journal. But I am willing to give this a shot.

Absolutely love the colors of this journal! Excellent reading journal than I plan to use. Love all the challenges and NetGalley Bingo. The ratings section offers so many features such as keeping track how many audiobooks, ebooks and physical books that you’ve read so far that year.

This is such a good way to keep track of what i'm reading. I love that this is available as a pdf, so i can do my journaling physically. This color scheme is so nice, and i love the little extra's at the end! The habit tracker & book bingo just make me so excited to read more this year!

I Love this journal set up. Super helpful publication for all NetGalley reviewers. Five stars! Thank you very much

NetGalley Reading Journal by We Are Bookish is a game-changer! This free reading journal for NetGalley members has great rating pages and book challenges. I love that you can track your reading for the entire year! I also appreciate the bonus pages and stickers too. I uploaded the reading journal to GoodNotes and it has been so seamless to use. I am excited to use this as a tracker for my reading. I recommend it to all NetGalley members, especially those who love to use digital journals! If you're more of a paper and pencil person, you can download and print the reading journal and still get to use it's great features!

Great tool for anyone looking for guidance on how to journal or annotate when reading! I had been looking for a good way to journal since most of the books I read are eBooks from the library, meaning my annotations and highlights are taken when the book gets taken. This is a great tool not only for NetGalley reviews, but for journaling about any of the books you read!

I love the look of this reading journal. Can't wait to start using it in the new year. The journal is well made and has about everything and anything that you would want in a reading journal.

This has the same great features as the other journal, but with a brighter color scheme. I downloaded this one to use as my 2025 journal but ended switching back to the more subdued color scheme of my other journal. This one is also a beautiful journal with a lot of fun features such as stickers and challenges. If you like bright, cheerful colors, this is an excellent choice.

I'm loving the reading journal! I absolutely love just sitting down and writing out thoughts and a review, but I hate wasting paper. This is the perfect solution. I love the stickers and everything you can add in and customize and I love the brighter color scheme as well!

I'm really enjoying using this reading journal, and the published guide was very helpful in getting started.

This reading journal is super helpful for keeping track of reviews. Thank you, NetGalley, for this resource!

Great, useful and functional, I definitely prefer a physical reading journal as it gives me the opportunity to be creative but this is good for keeping track of things quickly so that I don't forget what I have read in the time it takes me to sit down and spend time on my physical reading journal
