I really like the idea of this journal, and it does have all of the primary components to have a comprehensive listing of books you want to read, books you've read, and your thoughts about the books on your lists. I have an older Chromebook, though, and cannot find free software to be able to utilize the journal. I've considered trying to use this on my phone, but the screen is too small for this to be comfortable. I hope to be able to use this in the future but can't at this time. I also wish that the FAQ/User Guide was a section within this instead of a separate document.

This is a gem for avid readers. I could see my students who love to read(sadly I wish there were more) enjoying the various customizable activities. My faves are the genre challenges and choosing the best of the year. Lots to choose from.

I’ve enjoyed jotting down notes and lists that I can keep together for easy reference. It is my first time using a book journal, besides my notebooks, and it’s fun to update everything and feel organised. I’m actually for the first time ever making dedicated TBR’s for each month. I’m not necessarily sticking to them, but that’s a me problem.
Most bookish people would be happy with the reading journal, so if that’s you, try it out.

Thank you Netgalley for the complementary journal.

This book journal is nice. I don’t have a tablet that I can use for it unfortunately but jf I did I would def use it for my NetGalley reads. It’s simple and looks easy to use.

Love this reading journal!!!! It was great to be able to organize my reading with, on top of the trackers I use. I think it is very cool that NetGalley made this available to use.

Wasn’t what I thought it was. DNFd. I could see it being useful, but it was not what I had been looking for at the time.

I love the Reading Journal! It's been helpful in getting me back on track with my reading and reviews. Thank you for creating this!

Thank you NetGally for the free gift! I have this attached to my iPad and love keeping track of my yearly reads!

Appreciate this resource for tracking my reading. Helpful to take notes as I listen so I'm ready to write my reviews right away.

Amazing, great use for any reader! Every reader should have something like this. It's perfect for anyone who's is obsessed with books. Especially if you are on social media, this would be a huge help, with all your books and everything.

Great idea, but I've found out I'm not using it.
So I will stick to putting my reviews on GR and not in a journal.

This was such a fun idea and I'm grateful for the opportunity to use it! It's been a big help so far this year in keep track of my books read and reviewed!!!
Thanks, NetGalley!

thank you for this free customizable reading journal! I think it's a great way to keep track of books and for creativity to blossom!

I absolutely LOVED this! I love the month wrap ups because I'm always trying to see if I've advanced in my feedback ratio and now I have the perfect way how to! Now to just remember to write in the month start ratios...

I definitely want more of this! Maybe ask some users to submit some of their ideas or own wrap-ups/templates etc - of course with credit.

I think this is a great idea and a way to get more users to use social media to promote their books and/or NetGalley

Having a reading journal is a game changer!!
I love all the templates that are included in this and how easy it is for me to put this on my iPad to keep track of my reading!
I will be using this for all of my NewGalley reads!

This reading journal has been very helpful in tracking and re-defining my reading goals.Not sure I can keep up with the sticker stuff but it's sure re-awakened my reading goals. As a book reviewer I intend to read and review and post on as many sites as I can.

When you've been reviewing for a long time, it's easy to get stuck in a rut. I found this journal helpful for getting me out. The review examples and pages offered new ideas and inspiration, without feeling told off. It has reinvigorated my interest in reading and sharing a love of all genres of books.

Great. Very helpful journal for keeping up with the books that I have read. And, honestly, I'm just trying to get the book off my bookshelf. lol

I love this as a way to keep up with everything. I am a virgo and a very type a personality...so this is exactly what I needed.

Ok this was a cute resource!! NetGalley, you’re doing great! All of the read now resources are super helpful on getting a reviewer novice started.
