Perfect reading journal, it helps me keep my reading and notes organized. I really enjoy the habit tracker.

such a fun way to keep track of your reading in general, but to also fully explore and appreciate all the books you get to read on netgalley! I use this on my ipad in notability and it works great!
thanks :)

easy and accessible layout. i love the spreads. you can easily duplicate the pages and add more onto the GoodNotes app if needed. i filled the whole thing twice after duplicating it to GoodNotes. an easy replacement for a paperback reading journal!

This is such a nice idea! It really helped me to keep my reads in order and to structure my #tbr in an effective way

Such a fun free resource from NetGalley! I use mine through the GoodNotes app and it’s very easy to navigate, customize, and update. I can easily add more pages where needed and add my own flare with the included sticker bundles.

This is such a great idea though I have not used it to its full potential due to being intimidated and overwhelmed, but I think I'm trying to be too much of a perfectionist and just need to use this journal in my own personal way, which is absolutely possible. I can see how this can be a very useful tool to stay organized and do plan on utilize it more. Thank you so much NetGalley!

Love love love. Thank you so much! Please bring an updated one!! It would be great if it were more easily printable or editable, though.

The story centers around three teenage girls, Kiara, Priscilla, and Nevaeh, who are all deeply hurt when their popular classmate, Tommy, is exposed as a cheater. Seeking revenge, they wish him out of their lives. However, their wish takes a sinister turn when Tommy is found dead. As the girls become suspects, they must navigate the complexities of their own friendships and the secrets they've been hiding while trying to uncover the truth.
What I Loved:
Relatable Characters: The three protagonists are well-developed and easy to sympathize with. Their struggles with betrayal, friendship, and self-discovery are universal.
Gripping Plot: Agyemang masterfully weaves a suspenseful narrative that keeps readers guessing until the very end. The twists and turns are unexpected and satisfying.
Social Commentary: The novel offers a thought-provoking exploration of the impact of social media on young people and the dangers of online anonymity.
Strong Female Friendship: The bond between Kiara, Priscilla, and Nevaeh is heartwarming and provides a much-needed sense of support in the face of adversity.
Overall, Heart-Shaped Lies is a thrilling and engaging read that will keep you hooked from beginning to end. Fans of YA mysteries and social commentary will appreciate this thought-provoking novel.

this is the perfect reading journal, it has a spread for everything! I really enjoy this and can’t wait to use it in the future. The stickers are also awesome! :)

A great way to keep track of books!
I am not creative enough to create a bullet journal for my reading journey, so this journal is perfect for my needs as a reader and a reviewer. Thank you to NetGalley for offering this to users.

Thank you so much for this cute journal! It's such a fun way to keep track of books, and it's an excellent source of motivation for sticking with my reading goals!

so excited to start using this! Love this kind of thing so much and it’s helping me get more organised.

I absolutely love this reading journal! It’s become a key part of my reading routine, helping me stay organized while making book tracking fun. The design is beautiful, and the layout is perfect for book lovers.

I absolutely love this!
Reading journals is something I always look at on social media, but they seem like to much work. This one is very straightforward, with all you need. And it's pretty too! I printed mine out and will add the covers as I finish the books. :) Hopefully, it will help me stay on track this last quarter of the year.
The only bad thing about it is that I discovered it too late. :)
