Love this reading journal it’s so helpful for all of my planned reads. So easy to use I have uploaded it too Goodnotes with no issues thank you for this

I jus5 got my first tablet, so I've been looking forward to be able to use this journal and all the pretty stickers from netgalley when I'm keeping track of my reading. Love that it seems to be a new colourway every year!

Thank you to NetGalley for giving us readers this amazing reading journal! I love being crafty and I always have amazing ideas of putting a reading journal together in a notebook with all my stationary, but it just never happens.... But I do want and need a place to keep up with my reading, especially since I'm reading more than I ever have as an adult... And because I review, I like to keep notes on what I'm reading and my feelings throughout so I am able to leave a detailed review of my thoughts on a story. The fact that NetGalley gives this to us readers for free is such a blessing, especially with how expensive everything else -- I just can't afford it. And I'm so thankful to be apart of NetGalleys community because I am able to read AMAZING books before they are published, all they want is my opinion! How crazy amazing is that? Anyways, I 100% recommend taking advantage of this amazing tool - to keep up with your arcs and other books you read each year. How fun will it be to look back on the stories that changed us?

I've finally started using this and it is great. This reading journal makes it so easy to stay organized and have a creative digital reading journal.

Such a fun concept for a reading journal, definitely something worth using. I’ll be saving this for when I have an IPad.

Lovely reading journal
So easy to use, I imported it to Goodnotes.

Great way to keep track of your reading progress, as well as (future) ARC’s

This guide was filled with great information. It was also extremely helpful in giving a breakdown on what NetGalley is, and what the approval process looks like. I enjoyed the already created journal.

An amazing reviewing resource. Would recommend to people who likes to journal and track their reading, Thank you NetGalley and We Are Bookish for creating this,

This journal is such a thoughtful and generous gift from the NetGalley team—and honestly, it’s awesome! Downloading the PDF was quick and seamless, and it imported into Goodnotes without a hitch. The design is clean, colorful, and fun, with plenty of options to track habits, complete reading challenges, log reviews, and reflect on your bookish goals.

While I’m really excited to use it, I’ll probably hold off until next year since it’s already May. Going back and logging everything I’ve read so far this year would be a bit overwhelming. That said, I love knowing I already have my 2026 reading journal ready to go!

This is a fantastic resource for anyone who wants to organize their reading life in a creative, structured way. Whether you're a seasoned reviewer or just starting your bookish journey, this journal has everything you need—and the bonus stickers are such a fun touch!

Thank you, NetGalley and the We Are Bookish team, for creating something so useful and beautiful for the community!

This is special for tactile learners. Thanks for allowing PDF downloads for the file. It was much longer than I anticipated!

This looks great. Looking forward to using it. Will be interesting to look back through at the end of the year! Didn't realise there were 2 colour palettes to choose from.

I love this journal. Perfect for documenting my reading and compiling my reviews. It is also very helpful in keeping track of my netgalley reviews and new releases on my radar.

I wanted to use this, but I really couldn't get on with it on my phone. I know it's meant to be used on a tablet or computer, but that's not how I do it.
So I pass on this one.
Good idea though.

This reading journal is amazing!!! I didn't expect it to take advantage of being digital and having working links to different parts of the journal, that's just incredible. I wish I found this sooner but I cannot wait to get started with using it. Thank you so much for providing this type of content for readers to use!

This Reading Journal exceeded my expectations! I've been curious about using a digital planner for some time, and this tool to help me stay on top of my reading and reviewing goals and progress is really perfect! It took me a little while to figure out how to use the stickers, and I wouldn't mind if there was a way to include sticker sheets in the journal itself. The accompanying User Guide is really phenomenal (see review over there), and I found it incredibly helpful not just to learn how to make the best use of the Readers Guide but also for learning what apps and tools and processes to use for digital planning more generally. Really could not recommend this journal enough!

So happy to have this as a resource! I really want to start a reading journal, so this is perfect! Thank you!

Love this updated NetGalley Reading Journal! Thanks We Are Bookish & NetGalley for creating this for us all to use. The Bookshelf pages are super helpful to keep track of what you have on your physical shelves or kindle to enter as they come in. The tips & tricks for NetGalley are always useful at the beginning too. Loving the Categories Challenge and the ability to create your own. There are additional free sticker downloads to use as well, don't miss them!

I loved this reading journal! It has been helping me keep track of my books, specially my reviews. This reading journal is user friendly and you can customize it with stickers. I’m excited to see how it looks at the end of the year with all the books I’ve read.

I like the color scheme of this year's journal way more than the last year. I was late to discover this year also had a journal. I am now adding my books to it. I am glad the activities section was kept although I wish there were some differences. Regardless I love these journals and thank you so much for it.

This Reading Journal is so extensive and beautiful! I definitely was not expecting anything this nice so I'm very pleasantly surprised! Can't wait to dive into it now that I've started requesting and reviewing in earnest.
