Love this! Great way to not only stay engaged while reading, but also to go back and try to analyze larger themes.

This is such a fabulous thing to offer netgalley users, seeing as many review guides can be quite pricey! I am excited to fill mine out!

I have wanted to try my hand at book journaling for a while. I have been keeping track of my reading progress with spreadsheets but have wanted a more visually appealing representation of my reading log so this was a great introduction to digital book journaling. This reading journal is useful to anyone that wants to keep track of their reading.

I received an electronic copy of this journal and was unable to write or use it electronically. It's layout and organization looks great but I think it best to use the print version.

The journal is beautiful! It is well thought out, organized nicely, and is thoughtful. It is set up for 2023 but I am still using it in 2024!

Love it! Thanks so much Netgalley. I love the separate sections including a section for challenges. I love that it also helps track where you are percentage wise at the beginning and end of each month

This NetGalley Reading Journal was gifted to me by NetGalley at the beginning of the year. This was to help log my books and my thoughts about them as I went. I love it.

This is a nicely laid out journal that is good for a year and helps you keep track of your readings for NetGalley. Each month you can record information about your book, if you reviewed it, your favorite quotes and much more. There are also stickers. Attractive and helpful!

What an awesome resource for Netgalley readers and reviewers to have on hand to physically track our monthly and yearly reading progress. The design and layout from page to page is convenient and looks great!

Thank you so much!

5 stars!

Thanks to We Are Bookish for providing this reading journal. I can't wait to make use of it. Love the colour scheme and bits that are included. Will have to fiddle with my app a bit more to learn how to use the stickers properly and peruse the user guide a bit more. Super thoughtful to provide this resource to users! Thank you!

Very basic reading journal but good for starting out. Nice to use for ARC books if/when I’m approved.

The NetGalley Reading Journal has become my unexpected savior in the realm of organizing my reading and reviews! It's like it knew exactly what I needed, even before I did. What sets it apart is its thoughtful inclusion of links and resources nicely organized for newcomers like myself.

Among its myriad of features, a few have quickly become my favorites. Firstly, the monthly check-ins offer a structured way to reflect on my reading progress and goals. Separate shelves for audiobooks and ebooks/printed titles is a game-changer, streamlining a clear and comprehensive visual of my shelves.

The activities at the end of the NetGalley Reading Journal are a delightful addition, adding an interactive dimension to the journal. It's a creative outlet for reflection and engagement, fostering a deeper connection with my reading/ listening. I am eagerly anticipating putting this fantastic resource to use!

I've been looking for reading journal, and when this came I was almost exactly what I was looking for.

I LOVE THIS, thank you Netgalley!

I appreciate netgalley providing a reading journal to help stay organized. Clearly a lot of time and effort went into making it function and aesthetically pleasing. However, I am struggling to get it to open and to edit it in any way.

I may end up trying to print it out and use it as a physical journal instead, if I can get it to open.

A nice perk of being a member of Netgalley. I do use another book to keep track of my reads and reviews, but this was a nice gesture.

I really love the colour scheme of the journal. I like that it is vertical. The artwork is clean and I like the quotes on the monthly spreads. I like the challenges at the end. Good variety and helps prompt us to read broadly. Only 2 critiques. I really don’t like the font of the main body. I like the font of titles and subtitles but not the general font. I also wish there was more room to track books. As someone who reads quite a bit I’m wondering if this is made purely to track our ARCs or is this to be a general reading journal? If so then more space for books and for reviews would be good!

Love this so much! What a great way to track the books I've read, keep notes, save quotes. Works really well with the Notability app on my iPad.
