This is the perfect reading journal for ARC readers. The format and colors are so ascetically pleasing. I also love that there is place to put the covers and publishing company and dates to make everything neat and organized.

I downloaded this reading journal but I am not sure that I will use it. I'm not really into using a journal and not sure I really have the time for it.

Great download to keep track of the books you've read, details on the book, your feedback, etc. Love the color palette as well. Certainly a great way to keep you organized and make you feel "official".

The journal works well and has several interesting ideas. Some parts aren’t necessary for me, for example the description of myself - as it is my journal and no one will see this. I’m the colour palette is nice and I especially like that everything is hyperlinked.

Thank you NetGalley for the reading journal. Unfortunately I really didn't find it helpful and it didn't provide anything that couldn't already be done with tracking software.

Interesting concept and lots of options for tracking. A little too much for those who don’t have a lot of time. What about those who read a lot of books in a month. Maybe instead of full page reviews offer half page options instead.

A book journal is a good way to keep on track of your setting reading goals or if you just want to remember what you’ve read.

Thank you to NetGalley for another fun resource.
