I love this reading journal! I have no idea how to use it digitally, but I have been printing pages I want to use and putting them in a binder. I love that it's not dated, so maybe next year I'll learn how to put it into an app. Thank you, NetGalley!

As someone new to digital journaling, I cannot fully judge the usefulness and practicality of the journal, but it does seem to offer quite a bit of variety of pages. For people who are interested in digital journaling but are not invested enough to create their journal from scratch, this might be a good balance. The design is not amazing but still pretty good. For a freely given journal, there was quite an effort put into it.

This journal will be the perfect tool for tracking my reading and keeping my goals in check. I cannot wait to print this out and will be sharing this with colleagues and a few fellow Netgalley reviewers.

Journal does not seem to work great with my editing program. I am not paying for a new one. From what I used it was nice but I still think it is easier to enter all of this into an actual website. This isn't for me.

Well designed and free! A nice way to remember and track what you’ve read! This is an easy system for those not want to design your own, and you can pick and choose your fields. I’ve used it to redesign the spreadsheet I’ve kept for years.

Always good to have an awesome new reading journal! I can't wait to start getting through all of the books that are coming out later this year.

Perfect! I'm not really sure what kind of feedback NetGalley requires for this review other than this is a very useful tool.

This journal is an unreal reading journal. I love that it is catered toward NetGalley readers and there is even a spot to keep track of your feedback ratio every month. I also love the distinction between audiobook/e-book/physical book in the "# of books read" section!

Thank you for a great journal NetGalley!

Extremely well thought-out and useful sections - the only reason it's 4-stars is a general ambivalence on the aesthetics of the design.

A fun way to keep track of my audiobooks and books! I use Goodreads, but enjoying this other method. Thank you NetGalley!

The Netgalley Reading Journal is an invaluable resource for readers looking to organize and deepen their reading skills.

This notebook has a clear and easy-to-understand structure with organized sections to record information about books you've read, relevant content, habit trackers,... Personally, I like the summary section, as it is an opportunity to look back on the year's reading journey.

Some sections can be expanded to accommodate different types of readers, but overall, this textbook serves its purpose of being a useful tool that develops reading habits, review, and reflection. Having the notebook by my side while reviewing a book helps me deepen my thoughts about it. I'd highly recommend it to all the book lovers who desire to keep track of their reading, while also improving the information they get out of the books they read.

Looks like a fun way to keep track of your reading and books, partially if you prefer a more hands-on or artistic method. The journal is well organized.

I personally prefer to primarily keep track of my books on Goodreads, but for others this is a great option!

As someone who has wanted to give book journaling a try for a while but just did not know where to start or what to purchase, I’m so happy Netgalley made this free for us to download and use!

It's a downloadable PDF with dedicated sections for tracking your books, goals, and personal notes, including reviews and ratings. Whether you’re just starting out or already a pro, this is a great freebie for Netgalley users.

Love this but I wish I could make it editable! Not tech savvy I'm afraid..... I might see if this can be bought in hard copy it is a very useful tool for keeping track of reads
