Really appreciate this reading journal from We Are Bookish! There are now two colour designs to choose from and plenty of downloadable stickers to help you jazz it up a bit. Also, while it is digital format, you can easily print out the pages to create your own paper journal if you prefer that. Really nice resource for book lovers, readers and reviewers.

A digital reading journal that tries to maintain the feel of the old paper journals. I love the clean visuals and the bright colors in this edition. With tabs for each month and a monthly check-in page, it's easy to keep your reading organized. Set up is a little bit clunky as is its use, but definitely download the book journal user’s guide to help with that.

Thank you to Net galley for this reading journal in exchange for a honest review. This journal can keep all my books organized by month and titles. it gives me an easy to see clear and concise lists of books read with rom for notes..Perfect for the reading enthusiast.

I'm so grateful for this Reading Journal! It's my first time using a digital journal like this and it truly has everything a reviewer/Bookstagrammer/book addict/aspiring book fan might need! The easy to navigate option of clicking on the tabs is a great idea and the check-in sections make this so much more user-friendly! I'm excited to use this journal this year!!! The color scheme is also a great choice to allow the user to customize in the preferred style with this as a base. Thank you to We Are Bookish for creating this!!!

I am absolutely in love with this year's reading journal! It's a beautifully designed tool that is perfect for any book lover. The vibrant colors are inviting and make the journaling experience enjoyable. One of my favorite features is the bingo card, which adds a fun twist to my reading goals.
The ample note space allows me to jot down my thoughts and reflections on each book, while the monthly check-ins help me stay accountable and track my progress throughout the year. I especially appreciate the "Favorite Book of the Year" page; it's a wonderful way to highlight standout titles.
The personal reading goals section has motivated me to challenge myself, and the reading shelf is a great way to keep my to-be-read list organized. The inclusion of coloring pages is a delightful touch that adds a creative break to my reading routine.
The A-Z challenge is another fantastic addition, pushing me to explore new genres and authors. This journal would be an excellent download for my iPad, making it even more convenient to keep track of my reading journey.
Overall, this reading journal is a beautiful, comprehensive tracker. It has everything a bibliophile could want, and it's made my reading experience even more fulfilling. Whether you're an avid reader or just getting started, I highly recommend this journal to enhance your literary adventures.

I’m excited to be using the new NetGalley Reading Journal in 2025. It will help elevate my reading experience this year. One of its standout features is its layered design—there’s so much to explore, but the organization is on point, making navigating easy.
The introduction of two different color schemes this year was a thoughtful touch, allowing me to customize my experience further. I also love the inclusion of pick-and-choose activities. They’re a fun and flexible way to challenge myself, step out of my comfort zone, and discover books I might not have picked up otherwise.
My favorite feature has to be the “Best of the Year” bracket. It'll help me reflect on my reading journey, highlight my top picks, and keep track of the books that truly resonated with me throughout the year.
One recommendation I have for the future is the addition of a feature to track book club events. It would be great to have a space dedicated to noting meeting dates, selected books, and discussion highlights all in one place. I've been using the notes section for this for now.
Overall, this journal combines creativity and functionality beautifully, making it a must-have for avid readers. I can’t wait to see how it continues to evolve in the future!

I appreciate the NetGalley Reading Journal, especially the activities such as the habit tracker and the bingo. I wish this was formatted to share on social media, like the colouring pages and the review pages but I still appreciated the journal.

I can never say enough about all that NetGalley and all they do for the readers and support of authors. I absolutely love this newest NetGalley Reading Journal - Sunset Palette. The perfect way to organize your year of reading and reviewing. The book is packed with the tools you need. You can edit and customize your journal as well as find reading challengs and pages to write your reviews and collect the stories you read.
I highly recomment this journal to anyone who loves reading, sharing reviews and supporting authors. It is a wonderful addition to our community.

Organized and well thought out journal. This will help keep my reading notes more organized. I like how I cqn put a star rating and small descriptions.

I'm enjoying using this journal. It's a lot of fun and helps me keep notes for reviews. SO many books, so little time....

I’ve been wanting a way to organize my net galley books. And this is fantastic! My goal this year is to keep track of my arcs!

This journal is GORGEOUS. I spent some time this morning getting it all set up and I'm so excited to use it along with my physical reading journal this year!

I'm not overly in love with the design of the pages, however, I can't deny how handy this journal is. I particularly like the tabbing, shelf, activities, and wrap-up. I will be using it throughout the year! Thank you We Are Bookish!

Love this journal for tracking my reads throughout the year! I’ve been using it on my iPad with Goodnote and I love how I can duplicate pages as I need to.

I love all the changes in this years journal. Especially the colours chosen. It is going to be super helpful and I can’t wait to dive into it and use it. Thank you so much!

I'm excited to use this journal. I've been wanting to try book journaling for a while now and this one seems quite easy! Tha j you Netgalley for letting me use this one

I like the reading journal and plan to use it for my 2025 reading year. I appreciate the monthly and yearly wrap up pages.

so excited to start using this!! will be downloading the user manual guide to get the most use out of it.

This is really neat, I love how it all looks.
I didn’t really understand how to get or use the stickers or input info, but that’s probably a me-error.

This will be a great way for me to try and be a little more creative with how I keep track of my arcs and the ratings I give. I know I'll have a lot of fun using it.
