This is so helpful! I knew I wanted to use the journal but had quite a few questions about how to make it work for me and this guide more than covers everything I need to know. Thank you, NetGalley!

Thank you for sharing this guide with me. I believe it will be useful. I look forward to using it to help me chart my reading habits.

I love a practical gift, and this journal is fantastic! I appreciate the instructions as well because I’m new to trying to use a template vs creating everything from scratch.

Very thankful for this guide!!! It was an absolute necessity for me or else I would not have figured out how to download my journal to Goodnotes or Xodo. Which by the way, I recommend Xodo more than Goodnotes because I have found that Xodo is more user friendly. I am looking forward to using the NetGalley Reading Journal to track my reading this year!

Extremely useful and well thought out, I am very impressed with the quality of resources and the thought behind the user guide.

Very helpful as I'm not using my journal to its fullest yet. Presented in a very user friendly manner it will continue to be very useful in the future.

This was an amazingly helpful guide for those just starting with the reading journal! The sections were easy to follow, the instructions clear and concise, and very relevant with a direct line to the apps they were recommending. However, Goodnotes is now Goodnotes 6 and isn’t entirely free anymore. (I got a notice about a free trial and then being charged). So, I’m not entirely sure the app is it for me, but don’t know other journaling apps that would work with the file.

Organization throughout was excellent and ideas were well thought out and placed in sections that made so much sense. I’m absolutely going to look for other app options to really get into using the reading journal and seeing how it works for me!

I stumbled upon the NetGalley reading journal and I was so excited to use it!! I’ve been wanting to start tracking my reading but as soon as I opened it, I was definitely overwhelmed. Thanks to this handy dandy user guide I was able to navigate the journal. Thank you NetGalley, I love it!

This was incredibly helpful, as I'm new to digital journaling and was really struggling to figure out how to edit the document. Thanks very much!

While I found the NetGalley Reading Journal on the friendlier to use side, this guide makes it even easier.


Thank you to We Are Bookish and NetGalley for the guide; it really is helpful.

Super helpful way of keeping track of new reads. Love the format and the activities especially the alphabet challenge.

Really helpful guide to the reading journal.
Managed to get my journal set up ready for the end of January. Will use this to keep on top of my Netgalley ARCs.

Thanks

Handy guide for while using the reading journal. I had already figured out a lot myself but am glad to have found some extra info this way about the apps I can use to edit the journal, and also where to find the stickers.

Really useful tool to accompany the reading journal! As a first time digital journal user this guide was super helpful for me to figure out what I'm doing and make the most of my Reading Journal :)
Thank you Netgalley & We are Bookish for putting this together!

This was helpful in getting me set up with the Reading Journal on my phone. I am super excited to use this and hopefully get more structure in my ARC reading!

Thank you, NetGalley, for a user guide on the reading journal! While I had already known about GoodNotes, I hadn't thought to import to Xodo, and the instructions for that were much appreciated with how new I am to using the app. :') I also hadn't noticed there was a link section on the Reading Journal for stickers and (admittedly) usually only skim the links list on a listing, which means this definitely served as a reminder to not gloss over those anymore.

This is a detailed and very helpful tool for NetGalley readers. I love that it provides a NetGalley 101, with everything one needs to know about NetGalley, along with some helpful links. Thanks so much!

Very useful user guide.

I will have it in hand when I start using the Reading Journal.

Thank you so much!

Very useful. Thank you so much. I appreciate NetGalley providing this. It is much appreciated and will come in handy.

Very useful guide for writing in your bookish journal, clear and concise. If you are stuck on making entries in your journal read this
