This is very useful and cute! I did not have any issues downloading and using right away. Thank you for making and providing this journal!

It’s a little more intensive than I was looking for but definitely a good template and resource for someone who uses netgalley a significant amount. Also great for someone who wants to start a book journal but is overwhelmed by starting from scratch.

I really appreciate the variety of book related games and I find the labelling pretty neat too! Thank you Netgalley for the journal!

This is incredible for creators and readers that love to keep track of their books :)
I’ve had a lot of fun creating my wrap ups and using the activities that are included.

The NetGalley Reading Journal is a super handy tool to track your yearly NetGalley reading progress and reviews.
I'm not well versed in the use of digital journals but this is one of the more simple ones I've tried. Though I'm yet to try the available stickers, so I can't speak to the benefits of those.
I particularly like the My Shelf section where you can find where in the journal you can find particular books and reviews thanks to the finish date section—no more flipping through an entire journal just to find one book. I also loved that there's a section specifically for audiobooks, as I listen to audiobooks daily.
My favourite inclusion in the NetGalley Reading Journal is the My Bookcase section. If a reading journal doesn't have a bookcase where you can colour and write in your yearly reads it's not the right reading journal for me. As a very visual and creative person I feel most accomplished when I'm filling in another book on the shelf. Sometimes a book is a bit of a hard slog, but when I get to colour it in and write the title on the spine of the book it makes me genuinely happy.
While I'm still no expert at using digital journals this is a great one for beginners. I just wish that the colours were more appealing.

It’s a netgalley reading journey. What more to say about this? I think they automatically add this to your list so I guess that’s that lol

Love the design and layout of this journal. Really easy to use and aesthetically pleasing. I like that you can include the cover of the book you read, as many journals do not have a space for this.

Thanks for this free journal. Did I really get dinged in my percentage because I didn’t review this? I’m testing this to see if it changes things.

Love the journal! A great way to reflect and journal thoughts after reading a book. It is also so easy to use, very intuitive with the iPad. The sticker packs are also helpful! A great way to personalise and enjoy the process of book reviewing.

Perfect Journal for keeping your yearly reading goals organized and concise! Thank you Netgalley for this complimentary journal!

I really liked this reading journal. There were check ins for each month and pages for book reviews, I liked the activities, including the habit tracker, bingo, and reading challenges. Thank you!

THANK YOU NETGALLEY FOR THE JOURNAL. i TIS SUPER HELPFUL IN TRACKING MY TBR AND THOUGHTS AS I READ MY BOOKS.

Love being able to use this to help me ensure I am keeping up with the reading I need to do. It's amazing how having a dedicated tool like this can make all the difference in staying on top of my reading schedule. No longer do I have to worry about forgetting what I've read or what I still need to tackle. This tool has been a game-changer for me, allowing me to track my progress and stay organized in a way that's easy to understand and maintain.
I love how it breaks down my reading into manageable chunks, making it feel less overwhelming and more achievable. And the best part is that I can easily adjust my goals and targets as needed, so I can always stay on track and make progress towards my goals.
Overall, this tool has been a huge help in keeping me accountable and motivated to stay on top of my reading. I'm grateful for the peace of mind it gives me, knowing that I'm always one step ahead of my reading list.

Overall not any more helpful than the tracker I was already using but could be for some! The system was just simplistic than my notion page and journal

Downloaded today after delays to my reading, but after a quick look, the reading journal seems to be very easy to read and has a clean user interface. I like that the guide offers a way to track whether the book has been reviewed and shared, as well as other useful tracking information e.g. format and narrator, particularly if the book was an audiobook. Thank you NetGalley and We Are Bookish for creating this reading journal! Glad to have this tool to help with my reading journey <3

I love the idea of tracking and reflecting on what I’m reading. Visually this wasn’t my favorite but that could be a personal preference so I won’t take too much off for that.

I actually really love this journal. After reading some of the reviews I think a lot of people were confused on how the journal would best be used. For me, I used Goodnotes 6 on my IPad and imported the journal to that. By doing that I was easily able to jump around using the linked tabs and write where I wanted.
The layout of this journal is more on the simpler side so this is wonderful for a first digital reading journal, especially if you’re like me and like to hand write things. You can fill the journal and then easily clear the pages to start over so the number of uses is endless.
The categories are easy to find and understand but the most important thing is: you have to know how to use a digital journal such as this one. In my opinion an iPad or a tablet would be best.
Thank you Netgalley for this wonderful gift.

This is a fun journal packed with thought out pages to keep a log of the books we read! I love keeping track of my reading and this is going to make reading even more exciting so I can fill out the info!

Excellent journal to track books read, relevant dates etc. Journal is well designed and I like that you can add all relevant details of a book especially the book cover.

The NetGalley Reading Journal by We Are Bookish is a fantastic tool for book lovers and reviewers. With user-friendly sections for tracking reading progress, jotting down thoughts, and organizing reviews, it enhances the reading experience. The helpful tips for writing reviews are a nice touch.
