So I’m going to keep trying with it obviously, but I really wanted to share some initial feedback. I found it a bit overwhelming with how large it is, and due only being able to open it on my phone at the moment it is quite difficult to navigate on there. I like the reviewer profile section near the beginning though, that is nice

I love this reading journal! The features are amazing, there are so many different pages to be filled out. The aesthetic is very beautiful and simple, but you can personalise it with stickers. Very fun and simple to use

This is a lovely way to keep track of books read. The beauty of this journal is that it is customizable to the reader’s needs. There are also stickers that can be downloaded for additional customization.

This really isn’t something to review, a nice gift from NetGalley, I appreciate it. Looking forward to reading and reviewing more books, thanks to NetGalley for the opportunity to access great books!

It's nice and a well thought reading journal. NetGalley's Reading Journal is a fantastic tool for book lovers and literacy advocates! Thoughtfully designed, it offers monthly “check-in” pages, ample space for reviews, and fun activities like habit trackers, title challenges, and prompt bingo. Clickable tabs and links make it easy to navigate, making this the most engaging and user-friendly reading journal I’ve seen.

I’m seriously considering getting back into (reading) journaling thanks to this one. With stunning color palettes, stickers and customization features, this journal is not only efficient but aesthetically pleasing—which, admittedly, is a big factor for me. Awesome work by Netgalley’s team!

Super helpful and cute, which is an added bonus. Appreciate this free tool! I enjoy using it and it helps me to keep track of my eARCS.

I have never read this and am not sure why it’s showing in here but I don’t want a book to show I missed giving feedback. It seems to make senses that it’s a journal to fill out along with reading books from NetGalley.

I think this journal is a good introduction to book journaling, especially if readers wish to have a pre-planned setup.
It keeps track of enough important information, although I wish it had more room for personal reviews, such as in monthly reflections or favorite quotes.
The navigation is clearly set up and I like the monthly separation, as well as the activities part with reading challenges.
It is always difficult to know what the readers might want to track and in what way to present that information, but I think this journal managed to give a good idea of what a reading journal can be like.

I love this fun and cute resource for staying organized and journaling my reading journey! Thank you We Are Bookish for this template. I use GoodNotes already, and this seamlessly integrates with that interface.

I'm really excited to use this to help track my books! It seems easy to use and a fun way to stay organized! I can't wait to get started .

This was a great addition to my reading tracking this year! Definitely a fun resource to test out to see if you like this way of tracking your reading.

Thanks netgalley for giving me a great template to use to help plan my future reads and reviews. I really appreciate how easy it is to plan and write out my reviews to look back on.

I am so excited to implement the use of this journal throughout my year of reviewing. It provides everything I need.

I love reading journals and being able to carry this one with me is exactly what I need. I love being able to customize my layout. Works great in GoodNotes.

Very cute and fun way to track reading, especially when trying to better keep your ARC TBR on your mind.

If you’re looking for a tool to keep your reading life organized, a well-designed reading journal can be a game-changer. A great journal should include sections to track books you’ve read, to-be-read lists, favorite quotes, ratings, and personal reflections. Bonus features like reading challenges, themed prompts, or space for reviews can make it even more engaging. The best ones are customizable and easy to use, helping you not only stay organized but also deepen your connection with the books you love. It’s the perfect companion for bookworms who want to bring structure and creativity to their reading habits!

I had a lot of trouble finding a program that I could use this with. I would dearly love a more user friendly version.

I used this journal in 2024 and this has been 100% the most helpful reading journal I have had, and trust me I have had many. As someone with ADHD, I have found this journal very helpful in keeping organized of the books I have to read for NetGalley. Overall, I do recommend this reading journal.

Very appreciative to have received this reading journal from NetGalley to be used throughout the year to help track the books that I’ve read! I’m always searching for a way to track my books, so this is a great resource for NetGalley to have sent out to its readers and reviewers. Thanks!
