Lovely idea. It has everything needed when wanting to complete a reading journal. I personally prefer a physical journal.

Great resource for a reading journal. I like that there are now options of styles and I like how simple it is.

Loved the introduction and the motivation behind this journal.

The "About me" page can be expanded a little bit.
I did find some aspects potentially repetitive (fav books to recommend & 5 books to get to know me - social media & where I leave reviews)
I wonder how personalisable this page could be.

For review pages, I personally find it redundant to put the book cover and then write the title + author name under it. I would rather use the space for something else like narrators, tropes, mood, start date (not just finish date), DNF/Recommend/Favourite, format, etc.

The check-in page is comprehensive, I like it.
Sometimes we listen and read at the same time, so maybe that aspect can be tweaked?

Loved the small sentences for each month cover!

The habit tracker is an incredible tool.
Loved the other activities as well, can be helpful when in a slump or indecisive.
The yearly wrap-up is incredible!

I wish there are some suggested stickers tho.

I loved this little journal! It's a great addition to any book lover's reading routine, but most especially to reviewers. Every entry encourages you to organize your thoughts and record what's most important in that reading experience!

This has everything a book reviewer could need and what so many other reading journals lack. I appreciate the ease of use and the subtle reminders to post our written reviews. The additional sticker packs and pages really take this to the next level. By far my favorite reading journal!

A little difficult to navigate. I wish I could change the colors on the tabs and that stickers did not have to be added in separately.

I don't know if I'll use this as my primary reading journal but it has a lot of great ideas for tracking and reviewing that I'll use. Thanks for creating this!

Unfortunately this was not quite what I was wanting from a reading journal, so I didn't make much/any use out of it.

This journal is a great tool for readers and great way to keep track of reading status. The best part is how customizable it is, I definitely recommend it!

Eine wirklich nette Idee.

Ich habe tatsächlich Goodnotes und es war gar kein Problem die Datei dahin zu importieren. Auch Menschen, die nicht für Goodnotes bezahlen können es nutzen, da man ja bis zu drei importieren darf.
Das Journal ist simple aufgebaut und erfüllt genau den Zweck.

Von dem her danke an das NetGalley Team, welches dieses Journal für alle zur Verfügung stellt.
