This one is a lot like the 2023 version and it is really well laid out. Obviously if you’re going to use it digitally you’re going to need an adobe acrobat or goodnotes subscription to be able to edit it. Alternatively you could just print it off. I really love the activities at the end though such as the bookshelf and the habit tracker, it’s a really cute idea and gives you some great ideas if you’re creating your own journal such as a bullet journal. I would definitely recommend downloading it, it’s a great free resource and I’d probably buy it if there was a physical version.

Never journaled before but this has me logging and writing all my book thoughts down. Thank you so much NetGalley for putting this together!

Thank you for this amazing reading journal! This is the second year in a row that I've gotten the NetGalley Reading Journal and I hope they keep making them from years to come!!

Great resource for anyone looking to keep track of their reading habits digitally for 2025. It has everything you could need set up and ready to go right at your finger tips. Love the bonus stickers as well to help make it even easier to use and also easily customized to make it really feel like your own. Will definitely be recommending and using this for my ARCs this year.

As someone new to NetGalley, but not new to booktok, I found this as a great tool to maybe digitalize your reading experience OR give you inspiration to build a bullet journal for reading (my personal fav). Thanks for the inspiration!

I'm going to be completely honest here- I have not started this. However, seeing all of the spreads is making me feel so motivated to try journaling again! I have already printed the "we need diverse books" challenge that was included in the bonus pages, and my coworker and I will be doing that challenge throughout the year. I also really like the specific netgalley tracker pages and will be definitely using those to track my arcs that I request/am approved for. I think it will help me stay on track and on time with reviews!

Very cute with lots of good prompts to be able to track yearly reading. Fun games and challenges. Nice clickable tabs to jump around and get to everything easily.

I set up my own digital book journal and have been using it for a few years. I saw that NetGalley had made one and decided to try it.

I love it! It’s easy to use (after a while of playing around with it and reading through the user guide) and I’m looking forward to tracking my books and reviews with it.

Because it’s digital, there is a lot of opportunity for customisation so I can still use any formatting I liked in my previous one. I like all of the different pages and love the aesthetic!

Such a great resource, either for someone who wants to digitally journal or as ideas for those who want to journal physically.

So many options both in the main PDF and all the additional downloads.

Looking forward to giving this a go!

This is SO cool! I've been doing reading journals by hand each year but now this one will be so helpful to keep track of all my NetGalley reads this year. Thank you!

Really good journal to use for tracking your reading. I like the layout of all the pages and how easy it is to use. It's also really good inspiration if you are wanting to make your own physical journal!

This is a great little journal for those who want to start recording their reading. I already do in my own hand made journals but this one actually gave me a few ideas to implement in my own journals.

The journal itself is pretty and it would be very useful for those just starting out recording their reading opinions.

I really enjoy the NetGalley Reading Journal! I like having a picture depiction of everything I read for the year.

LOVEEEEE the variety in this reading journal. To be able to keep track of my most anticipated, first read, last read, favorite read, and favorite color EACH month, plus new-to-me author, narrator, and genre, PLUS goals & how many books read... this journal has everything!! Beyond that - the included activities were absolute perfection. Finally, loved that the journal itself has interactive tabs! LOVE this and cannot wait to use it all year!

I adore this year's reading journal. I keep an A5 notebook with my reviews and thoughts about everything I read and I'm always looking for inspiration for spreads. I think this is a very user friendly and visually appealing way of tracking statistics and I'm always happy to get more people into reflecting on what they've read.

I LOVE this reading journal! I use it to keep track of what I read, what ARCs I have and dates! I currently use it on my iPad. It’s easy to navigate and gives so many tips on writing my reviews!

This is a very organized PDF journal and I've already begun to use it for my 2025 reads. Thank you for creating a beautiful way to track the titles I've read this year.

Another great reading journal from NetGalley! I love the review pages but my favorites are the monthly summary and challenge pages. I can’t wait to use this for 2025!
