I appreciate the guide to help use NetGalley's free reading journal. This download also includes stickers which is really cool. Big thanks, NetGalley!

This guide is so helpful! I enjoyed how it is laid out and very concise. It is also very pleasing to the eye which makes it very easy to read digitally. This goes really well with the NetGalley Journal and I am so happy it is available to us!

The user guide is really informative, but I feel as if it’s absurd to not have this download attached to the actual reading journal.

As someone who makes and sells digital reading journals I always add my instructional information pages after the index with clear instructions on how to remove the pages from the journal when they are comfortable with using the journal.

I think it’s important to note to users that apps like Goodnotes are needed and there is an added subscription cost when using those.

This is a very useful tool for keeping track of my 2024 reads. Thank you to NetGalley for this gift.

I haven't had time to read all of this quite yet, but the part that I read seems very helpful for this coming year.

Very helpful guide for people beginning their journey into keeping a digital reading journal. Highly recommend for beginners.

The NetGalley Reading Journal User Guide is a great helper. I recommend reading this if you haven't used a digital magazine before. It describes everything in detail and clearly. Maybe someday I will use these tips.

Thanks to NetGalley for this guide!

Thank you for offering this guide for the reading journal! This is super helpful, without it I would not have known how to edit the journal on my phone.

This was a helpful doc - thanks! I'm glad I downloaded it. It would've been helpful if there was a description of what Goodnotes and Xodo are and the difference between them.

This is a thoroughly written helpful book but I wonder if it will be read or used.
Many buy books that are guides but never take the time to read them when they are immersed in other books.

I appreciate this guide for the reading journal! Organizing my netgalley reads is a goal of mine to not lose track of all the deadlines. Thank you!

This Journal Guide was so helpful to show how the Review Journal can help me keep my thoughts about what I’m reading organized. I’ve never used any note-taking apps before so this helped me see how I can use them on my Apple device.

A helpful guide but I do not think I will use it in the future as I'm not able to use either of the apps suggested, Good to have in case I change my mind.

I am very excited to get started with this! It seemed like the perfect thing to use with NetGalley!! They seem to have all the best parts of other planners I have seen thrown into this planner. If you do a lot of book reviews this is perfect!

This is great companion guide to the reading journal. I can’t wait to start my journaling journey! Thanks for this resource NetGalley!

Unfortunately, I'm not able to use either of the apps suggested,

Suggest that this information be relocated to the Journal itself rather than separately. Having to review two things is silly.

The title of the document should be the name of the work instead of numbers, no wonder some people couldn't find it after downloading!

A great addition to the Reading Journal. Super helpful in figuring how to set everything up :) Can't wait to start using the real thing and look back on it in a year!

Helpful guide to using the Reading Journal. Knocked a couple stars off because it seems silly to have a separate "book" just with instructions. Bundle into the Reading Journal or put it up on the We Are Bookish site.

Thank you so much Netgalley for the gorgeous journal and also the user guide, which would come in handy for sure. :-)
