Great tool to keep a digital reading list of your books. It includes app suggestions to work with it and a step-by-step guide to use it. Thanks, NetGalley for this guide.

The NetGalley Reading Journal User Guide sent me down the rabbit hole of digital journaling, and I have zero regrets.

I'm looking forward to using this (and other digital journals) to track my reading and reviews as I head into the new year!

A great and easy to understand guide on all things NetGalley and how to review. If you're new to NetGalley, I recommend giving this guide look... if you're an old hand on hear it's a great refresher.

I feel like the premise of this is interesting but the amount of steps you need to take and other apps to download this make the execution mediocre. I would actually prefer to see something that could be printed out and used alongside your reading.

Journaling has become very popular again especially in combination with things like NetGalley and Goodreads. I’d love to see NetGalleys own version of that with her downloading but printing instead and then we could print our own stickers and use our fun pens and highlighters in conjunction!

I love this! I’m new to NetGalley and to have a guide is great! I bypassed this for the cover. I’m glad I went back though!

The guide has a straightforward set-up. It goes into detail about loading on devices and how to use. The issue I had was actually getting the journal loaded on my device so I could use it correctly. Even following all the steps exactly, the journal did not want to transfer until several attempts were made.

Thank you to We Are Bookish and Netgalley for the useful resource.

I was delighted to download a copy of the Netgalley Reading Journal. It meant I could keep all my reviews in one place and monitor my reading activity and TBR list for the year. However, the journal was not as simple to use as I initially thought.

The Netgalley Reading Journal User Guide was extremely useful in that it provided suggested programmes to use to open the journal in an editable format and gave direction on downloading tthe sticker packs, best practice for using the book, and all that you would expect from a user guide. It also set me on the path to creating my own stickers to customise my journal.

Although this book points predominantly at Netgalley with the recording of specific stats, the Reading Journal and this guide is useful for any reader reviewer that opts for a digital as opposed to a physical record of their reading.

This reading journal looks like it might be beneficial to a new reviewer who hasn't already found another way to stay organized.

Fairly straight forward instructions for downloading the Reading Journal, but the app it recommended for android use doesn't seem to exist. I downloaded the Ios one but couldn't really work it out. Probably my mpatient brain but this is not for me

Great to know and useful information. I had never heard of the apps mentioned before and have since found the Xodo app for Android very useful.

Very effective manual. Made it easy to use the journal! It was easy to read, and easy to navigate while using alongside the journal.
