LOVE that this is available as a PDF - it makes for easy use. The most comprehensive reading journal I've seen, with no need to add anything of your own.
It comes with a shelf, stickers, activities, reading reflections (best of the year!), and notes pages (with blank, lined, grid, and dot options), as well as monthly pages for tracking reading.
The monthly pages include Netgalley books and stats, goals, split between number of books, new authors, reflections, and bite sized reading wrap up.
Loads of space to add covers and thoughts, with really good prompts.

It's a great reading journal, makes sense to have it if you are an avid reader who likes keeping track of things. Well thought out.

Thank you NetGalley for providing a digital reading journal! This will be a quick and efficient way to keep track of my reading goals and reviews.

Thank you for sharing this! What a fun way to track reading. I'm not using it this year but I would consider doing so in the future.

I have not used this book. But I appreciate the offer. It looks like it would be helpful for those readers who keep better notes than I do

I absolutely love the NetGalley reading journal! It’s comprehensive and user friendly. I do wish I could change up the color scheme though it is very visually appealing.

Very detailed summary of what I have read and my statistics for the year. I enjoyed checking them. Can’t wait to see it again next year.

It didn't work for what I need from a reading journal but from what I saw perusing it, its a great tool for tracking one's reading and stats!

Thank you so much for this reading journal. Such an amazing tool for book lovers!
I will start rating my books really soon.

Thank you for the reading journal. This is a fun way to keep track of your reading in an online format.

A great tool for keeping track of ARC;s and a new way to organize your reading. I appreciated this journal from NetGalley and like the way it is organized and designed. Thank you to NetGalley for this reading journal.

Thank you We Are Bookish for this NetGalley Reading Journal! I’m a planner girl - I love both digital and physical planners, and I’m always on the hunt for the *best* ones. This one is PERFECT for keeping me organized and on track with all of my NetGalley reads! I think the activities section is so fun, and I love the way the journal is broken down by month to organize all of the reviews.

Loved this free journal you all offered -- I use it quite often to keep track of all the books I read and what books I want to read (especially the one's here on NetGalley). I think next year (if you guys offer this again) having additional covers and color options would be beneficial. Basically making it just a bit more customizable for each person. OH, I also loved how there were stickers and such available as well.

Very useful for keeping notes on what you have read and for book club members. Not really my thing though. I use an app to keep my book reading records.

This is a great journal to track your reading and reviews during the year. I particularly like the monthly wrap up pages. It is perfect to use on an iPad.

Very helpful and useful!! It has a great template and useful resources. I think it’s helpful if you really do enjoy ARCs and want to help your chances of staying organized.

Great resource, will definitely make use of it in! Looks cute and is very functional, thank you NetGalley! : )

April 16, 2024: Using a digital book journal is something I haven't tried before, so when I saw this I jumped on the opportunity to give it a go. So far I've highly enjoyed all of the different parts to this journal, with my top five being the monthly check-ins, the different bookcase options for shelfies and challenges, and the reflections at the end of the year!
While I still prefer to do my book journaling by hand in a bullet journal, I will also continue to use this digital file and look forward to potentially trying a second digital version in 2025!

Thank you NetGalley and We Are Bookish for the this journal.
Great journal to add to the iPad and log all your reads.
five stars

This journal works well enough for how simple it is. I would have loved more book pages for each month to come default and for the spaces for the review and favorite quotes to be lined.
The activities section is my favorite in this journal. I liked the rankings chart and the habit tracker. I like a bit more in my journals. More sections to separate out series from standalones. But really, this journal was pretty good.
