I didn't find the stickers or the layout very simple to use personally. Maybe it had something to do with the device I was using, or maybe it just wasn't compatible. Whatever the reason I didn't like this reading journal.

This book journal is full of creative inspiration, especially if you're someone like me who wants to customize a dot journal into a personal reading tracker. The prompts and layouts—particularly the customizable review pages, monthly check-ins, and reading challenges—gave me a lot of ideas for setting up my own spreads.

I really appreciated the inclusion of a habit tracker as well. It’s a nice touch for readers trying to stay consistent with reading goals or balance book time with other routines.

That said, I do wish the printable version were more editable—something as simple as form-fillable fields would make it more user-friendly for digital journaling or printing only what I need. As-is, it’s better suited for printing and writing by hand.

Overall, it’s a great inspiration source and a thoughtful reading companion, especially for readers who enjoy customizing their journaling experience.

There are much better options out there for reading journals than this one. It is not really worth the time to get this.

Love the NetGalley Journal. I am finding it really useful. It is easy to use with good clear presentation. Looking forward to using it.

I'm a little late on starting a book journal for 2025, but now that I'm eagerly emerging from my reading slump two months ago, I can't wait to put it to use. I've already got 6 book under my belt in the last two months and I'm going strong! This will be a great motivator for keeping that momentum :D

Not my favorite way to track my books, but it may work for some people. I like the activities and the end of year wrap up.
