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!

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.

New colors equal a new twist on an old classic. The reading journal got a facelift for this year's download and I am loving the new color palette. Thank you for making book tracking easy and fun.

There is a lot in this reading journal! A guide also comes with it. Which helps explain how it can be used which is helpful.

This is such a neat little journal! I have lost count of the number of times I’ve started reading journals and then just abandoned them because they were too much work to keep up with. This one is just perfect! It’s aesthetic, to the point, and just makes you want to use it. I especially love the category challenge and wrap up sections.

Okay, it’s official! The reading slump has left the building, and I could not be more thrilled! This deceptively simple little journal totally pulled me back into the joy of reading, and not only that, it somehow roped me into the wonderfully nerdy world of digital journaling too. I now have an entire Notion board dedicated to tracking my reads, my goals, and my ever-growing TBR.

With finances being a bit tight lately, rediscovering a hobby that’s both soul-filling and budget-friendly feels like striking gold. And the fact that this journal was gifted to us - completely free - honestly felt like such a generous offering to the reading community. NetGalley, you’ve officially re-lit the spark in my days. THANK YOU!

Absolutely love this!!! Thank you, NetGalley. It is super useful. I had never rally though about tracking my reading in this way, but I'll definitely give it a a try now.

This is really the perfect companion for avid readers.

Not only does it help you track all the books you read, there is space to make notes as you go and record your reviews to better track your progress through the year.

What’s more, if you’re a keen bookstagrammer, the layouts are attractive and offer a great template to share the books you’ve loved - or possibly loathed - as you go.

I also love the challenges section that is perfectly designed to push you out of your comfort zone and try new things. If you love books, you will love this.

Thanks for the reading journal! Looks like a good format, and I like the inclusion of challenges. I'm not sure why a sticker page is needed, though.

Great little journal if you want to document books you have read. Can be printed out relatively easy.
