I’m very much a paper copy kind of a gal, even if I read a book on my kindle I find myself still wanting to purchase the book. Excited to use this to track all my reads on net galley this year!

Love this!! It’s so cute! Plus I can print extra pages each month if needed. This will be a great tool all year long.

The journal’s design is tidy and easy to navigate, making it simple to use and stay organised.
I love the “check-in” pages, which allow you to track your progress over time—these were such a great motivator. The habit tracker is another fantastic feature, perfect for staying consistent with reading goals.

What sets this journal apart are the creative reading challenges, like the A-Z Challenge, NetGalley Bingo, and Categories Challenge. These add a fun and engaging element to your reading journey. The “wrap-up” section at the end is the perfect way to reflect on your progress and accomplishments.

Neat reading journal for keeping track of arcs and reviews! It's got lots of spots for reviews and has a place to put a picture of the book. I can't wait to use it!

A really great template!
It combines a lot of fun features I’ve seen in other templates such as the bookshelf and reading challenges. I especially like that the pdf is interactive so you can flip to different sections. I’ve been wanted to get into reading journaling but haven’t bitten the bullet to buy one yet so it’s so great that this is a free one I can start with!

Good digital reading journal for tracking all my 2025 NetGalley reads. I used this last year as well

Beautiful, intuitive and useful reading journal. I like the color scheme, the line illustrations, and different metrics.

I enjoyed using this to keep track of my reading as well as my BookFunnel statistics. This is the first year that I’ve used this. It worked really well to be able to insert pictures of the cover, keep track of audio, physical, and e-book consumption. I’d also let me look at the various genres and sub, genres, authors, and narrated readers that I’ve tried throughout the year. If you like tracking your books and reading habits, this book was very helpful in doing that this year. I’ve already started tracking on my 2025 books.

A very easy to use digital reading journal, amazing that it is free as well!!
Great to use on an iPad

So happy to have this to use for another year, with new colours. It’s a great way to see all the books I’ve read in one place and I like doing the challenges

Okay, let me just say, this NetGalley Reading Journal is IT! Like, where has this been all my life? The design, the features, the vibe—it’s giving everything it needs to give. From the moment I flipped through it, I knew this was about to level up my reading game.

First of all, the challenges? A-Z reading, NetGalley Bingo, habit trackers—y’all, it’s so fun it doesn’t even feel like tracking. And the “Favorites of the Year” section? Genius. It’s such a cute way to reflect on my top reads and see my best bookish moments all in one place. They really thought of everything to make this feel special.

As a mom of three, my time is precious, but this journal helps me carve out moments for myself and track my reading progress without stress. It’s like having a personal cheerleader reminding me to prioritize my love for books, which is so necessary in this busy life. I don’t have time for complicated systems, and this journal keeps everything simple and fun, so I can focus on what I love—reading!

The best part? It’s super easy to use and makes staying organized feel effortless. I can keep track of my NetGalley shelf, log my reviews, and set goals without feeling like it’s homework. And those review pages? Perfect for jotting down favorite quotes or random thoughts before they slip my mind. It’s like having my own little bookish corner that stays neat no matter how chaotic life gets.

This journal doesn’t just track your reading—it celebrates it. Whether it’s hitting a new goal, discovering a new favorite, or just reflecting on your reading habits, it makes the whole experience feel special. It’s like it was designed to make you love your reading journey even more.

If you’re about that bookish life and need something that works with your busy schedule, do yourself a favor and grab this journal. Trust me, it’s the one you’ve been waiting for. Five stars, no question!

It sure is colorful! Overall, it is a pretty basic template for those who prefer digital journals and use a tablet.

Love this, so cute and helpful for when you can't buy one! Thank you, Netgalley!

There's a lot of different pages which is super nice so you can fill in all your information!

This journal is really cool! It explains NetGalley & provides places for you to keep up either your reading reviews, etc. Personally I will not be using it as I’m happy with how I currently keep up with reviews. But this is a great option for those who want something more in-depth.

This was really helpful in my understanding of how this site works. I love the support they provide with a simple to read but complex document.

perfect :) love to use the netgalley reading journal. it's so fun and has everything i need thank you 😊

I really love all the options and stickers included with this journal. Such a great way to keep reviews organised (and good motivation as well hehe). Thank you so much NetGalley!

This journal has enhanced the way I am able to save my arc reviews and keep them somewhere in the case I ever need to go back and take a look, and I can spice it up in GoodNotes as well. Thanks so much.

This is a fun and useful looking reading journal. For anyone using netgalley this would be very helpful and a way to organise your reading and opinions.

I don't think it is something I will personally be using. I am content in the way I am currently journaling and organising my reading stats digitally.

However, I think the aesthetic of this is pretty and it could be useful for those wanting to track their reads and goals.

Thank your to NetGalley and we are bookish for providing an ARC copy in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own

Finally started using this journal and I can't believe I waited so long! Can't wait to continue on this reading journey with it to track.
