This downloadable reading journal is very cute with some great ideas for keeping track of how much us bookworms read!

Unfortunately, it does need printing out or the use of a PDF editor app so I didn't find myself coming back to it and using it all that often but, for those who already use a digital journal, I think it would be great. Maybe not for a first timer.

I like how the pages are set up, and it gives a lot of good ideas for a book journal. It's too bad you either have to print it out, use the computer PDF editor, or use a PDF editing app to use this.

The reading journal did not work for me. I’ll stick with my own format for tracking reading and reviewing.

I really like the idea of the novel but I'm confused on how to use it. I downloaded it to PDF. I'm not one to normally print out book covers and cut and paste them into a journal. Outside of that I think this is a great tracker and look forward to using it this year!

This is a cute reading journal. You need to have another app to be able to actually edit the document. A good place to start if you don't have a reading journal already. If I had a digital journal, I'd probably use something that tallies all my reading though.

I really love this journal! I like that it has a spot to track NetGalley ARCs and feedback ratio, the way each month is separated so that you can track your reading on a monthly basis, and the larger, individual book pages for more in depth reviews! I downloaded the journal onto my IPad and it is very user friendly!

This reading journal is so much fun! It is interactive and easy to use. A great starting guide to get into reading journals!

Initially, I didn't think that I would actually use this reading journal, but it's actually been useful. I like keeping a digital record of what I've read and need to read. NetGalley put in a lot of work to make this journal user friendly.

I love this reading Journal and am so excited to start using it for the books I've read. The navigation to the journal is easy to get the hang of and the number of books that it can hold reviews for is perfect for someone who reads quite a bit.

I love how this journal is set up and how many options it gives to personalize for each user. I look forward to reviewing it at the end of the year to see how it does with longevity.

This "little" reading journal is perfect, with absolutely all the information I need and want in one. I don’t think I'll buy another RJ for a long time now that I have this one to plan, track and wrap up my reading monthly and yearly all at once.
Thank you netgalley

I’ve been looking for a practical and pretty reading journal I believe I finally found it!
The NetGalley Reading Journal has pretty much all the pages I want and need and many stickers to make I even more personal and beautiful! I’ll definitely be using it!

I really love this, I have always wanted to have a reading journal and this made starting really easy. The how to guide means it is easy to.edit and use and I think the illustrations are very pretty. There are some pages I won't use but I just delete them.out and make the journal my own!

Such a great reading journal. I’m still learning all of the intricacies and trying to use it to its fullest potential, but way to go NetGalley!

It is a cool tool to have. I do wish that you didn't have to download an app to use it. The set up is kind of nice. I do like that I am not wasting paper but still able to keep a reading journal.

This is a great journal to use in Notability or GoodNotes (and other apps like it), especially if you like to have your own little electronic sticker book. You get to keep track of books you are reading, when the review needs to be done, when you started and finished reading it, plus a copy of your review. You can copy a photo of the cover in just like a sticker. What can I say, I'm Gen X and sticker books were our thing.

What an unexpected but pleasant surprise!

I’ve been tracking books read on goodreads and StoryGraph, but I do love something a bit more journal like rather than a pure reading log. Excited to fill this in!
