I appreciate the gesture and like the format, but would have loved a digitally editable version. For those who use PDF editing software or who are willing to print, it may work better.

This is a great reading journal! I’m going to try to make it work. It will be new for me since I’m more a pen and paper girl or Goodreads girl but this has definitely piqued my interest. Thanks for the gift NetGalley!

What a fun little Christmas gift from NetGalley! A reading journal is a perfect gift for all the readers out there.

Can't wait to try this out, I am a bit confused on how to make the hyperlinked pages work as I am working out of Notability, but I am sure I can make something work

A nice gesture but I’m not interested in printing and filling out. I would be more interested if it was something that could be filled in digitally than printed.

This is a great reading journal! I'm so happy that Netgalley released this for users. I especially love the monthly feedback ratio stats, such a great idea!

This is such a great gift from NetGalley to their readers! Thank you for providing us this as a PDF. my only minor complaint is that I wish I had this in a format that was more accessible on my phone, like an app even would be awesome! I would love if this was part of the NetGalley app where I could take notes and upload photos right into the app.

This is a great way to track the books you want to read for the upcoming year, and take notes and rate for easy access.
Thank you for introducing me to this awesome digital book journal.

I think this Journal is great! I'm excited to start using this NetGalley Journal to track my reading and audiobooks!

Love this! I'm much better at being on my iPad and keep track of my book reading through GoodReads or StoryGraph, now I get to be fancy and do reviews for all the books I read a year. Can't wait to use it!

Thank you so much for this wonderful gift, NetGalley! What a great way of starting off 2024! I’ll be able to better categorize all the books that I’ve read, and it’s just so visually appealing. 🫶

This is SO lovely, I can't wait to use this to log my reading!! Such a thoughtful way to log my reading in the coming year. Thanks NetGalley, happy new year!

It's a thoughtful gift, but not user-friendly if you don't have PDF editing software. I like its formatting, but the only way I could use it is if there was a physical copy available.

The NetGalley Reading Journal is more than a spreadsheet -- it lets you track your reading and inspires you to make a project out of your reading life, with ideas for reading challenges, downloadable stickers to attach to your journal pages, and room for notes. The tracking categories are basic: book title, date published, date finished, how many stars you give it, and whether you reviewed it or not. It's downloadable as a pdf and you can customize it if you like. I have not done reading journals in the past, but want to do one this year. As nice as the NetGalley Reading Journal is, I am more interested in tracking data, such as book genre, book format, and who recommended the book, so I will be using another tracker this time around. Nevertheless, the NetGalley Journal is impressive and looks like fun!

What an amazing gift! I was actually just looking for a Reading journal to use in 2024, this is perfect!!!

Fabulous! I love being able to use my Apple Pencil with this amazing journal. I am a lefty, so cute hand lettering is a non-starter for me. I don’t have to worry anymore.
