I’ve started using this on Goodnotes at the beginning of 2024. I’m excited to keep track of everything book related and see what it looks like at the end of the year! I think it would work best on a tablet using a stylus. It’s a bit difficult on my phone to “write” things down. Maybe I missed something, but it’s not the easiest placing my cursor to type in the blank that I want to. I’ll keep experimenting and see if I can come up with different/ easier/ faster ways to put my info in. Thanks NetGalley!

I love this reading journal! Way to go netgalley with one of the best reading journals out there. I will be using this all of 2024.

Thank you so much for this fun gift! NetGalley is such a wonderful resource for the reading and publishing community. Here’s to a great 2024!

I love using this reading journal! Its super easy to use! The stickers and bullet journals make it really fun to customize!

Great tracking tool with a lot of helpful information, but I like the quicker use of various apps instead of the old school journal.

I think this was very helpful to have a plan for what I wanted to read this year. There are something that I know I won't use because I don't track/review my reading that way.

This is amazing! Easy to use and great format... i appreciate it! Thank you so much for putting this together for your readers Netgalley!!

This is so neat! Perfect tool for readers! If you love journaling or just keeping track of your books and reviews this is a great tool. Imagine what it will be like to look back at your accomplishments for the year! Sometimes ww love a book and may not remember all the little details when we recommend to others. This would help immensely!

I can't wait for 2024 simply to use this tracker. It's practical, minimalistic, and looks gorgeous. I love the aesthetic!
Another great thing about this is that Goodnotes (the recommended app for ios devices to open the file) accepts files under 5mb for the free model, and this reading journal is exactly 4mb.
Thank you so much, Netgalley, for this amazing tracker!
I'll definitely update this review at mid-Jan to share if it's been as functional as I hope it'll be. See you then!
Edit: After trying it out, I'm going to have to say it didn't exactly be as functional as I expected. It took a long time to log each book, and while this might be a great option for readers who want to spend time and have fun with the book-logging process, it wasn't for me. Thanks anyway!

This is a great tool for readers to use when tracking what ARC's or books they've read. I've tried using different versions of something similar to this many times, at the start of each year as a matter of fact. But like always, I get behind and lose track, and then it's my laziness at trying to get caught back up that gets me in the end. I suppose if I was much more disciplined this would be a great tool for me, but that old adage, "you can't teach an old dog new tricks" kicks in and I have no gumption to keep using it. It really is a great tool for those that are much more disciplined than I am.

As a newby to NetGalley, this journal is very helpful in getting me to think how I want to plot my reading in 2024. I particularly liked having an assessment each month as well as some of the suggestions for reading goals. Definitely worth the download!

I loved this! Thank you so much to NetGalley for providing this as a little goodie for us :) I needed a new journal to document my reads and I’m excited to try this one out. Creating my own from scratch did not work out well in 2023 so this will definitely help in 2024!

Thank you for this great little journal! It's got lots of great pages and areas to fill and track my reading through out the year.
I was provided a free E-ARC from We Are Bookish and Netgalley for my review

This is well-crafted reading journal that I can't wait to explore! I like the aesthetics of the journal and how I can keep track of my reading by month. The instructions are very clear and the journal seems easy to navigate.

This journal is a great way to organize my arcs and write my initial thoughts before sitting at a computer and staring until I remember what I wanted to say!

Thank you NetGalley for this, it's already been really helpful in recording my immediate thoughys if i dont have time to sit down and write a full review online after finishing a book :)

Great tracking journal! This is a great option if you want to go old school and use paper and not an app.

This journal has a nice look to it, but unfortunately, just feels like an extra step to me... I ended up not really using it. I'm sure others have found a lot of use for it, if that's how their minds are organized!

This is such a cute e-journal for tracking my reads and reviews. The challenges and monthly reading tracker are perfect additions to make it fun.
Thank you, NetGalley!

As someone who accidentally goes Arc request crazy every now and again, this journal is super helpful to keep myself on top of my Arcs and reviews! And I appreciate that it is specifically for Arcs/Netgalley.
