This is a great and organized way to keep track of my books through the year! I really appreciate Netgalley putting something like this together!

This is such a pretty journal and I am so excited to use it! I love that they provide this here! I love the idea of being able to track things like this on my iPad and this is perfect for it :)

This is a great little PDF journal. I personally prefer to type things so a PDF is perfect for me.

It's month-by-month tabs make it easy to know what you read in which month. The PDF is interactive so it will jump to different points in the PDF as well. I really like it!

Great organization and design for this reading journal! These prompts and templates make me so motivated to document my reads outside of just documenting on Goodreads.

An absolutely beautiful, fully customizable reading journal. Absolutely will be utilizing this to ensure I keep on top of my feedback ratio!

This is a perfect one-stop-shop tool that I cannot recommend enough.

The reading journal was exactly as expected. Had room for all my book reviews. It had challenges to be completed throughout the year. I have loved using this journal the past few months.

Very beautiful reading journal, thank you so much NetGallery! It’s a funny and aesthetic way to take count of all the books read. I found it very practical and easy to use (I recommend to also download the “Reading Journal User Guide”, it helps you to understand better how to use it).

Haven't really used it. I'm sure it will be if I did use it. Time will tell. I know other people that have used it and they do find it useful

I've been looking to start a reading journal for a while and this seems like the perfect one. It has a lot of space to add your books and thoughts with little prompts for each month to set goals. The PDF is incredibly easy and intuitive to navigate, with little tabs at the side where you can jump around easily. A reading journal for everyone!

I'm new to NetGalley and was excited to see there is a reading journal that can be used by members. I like the layout and the contents, and everything looks really amazing. I like the suggestions on how to get started , activities and important links. I'm already using Goodreads to keep track of my reading and my reading goals, but now I'm really looking forward to using my NetGalley reading journal.

This is a great reading journal. I am not really sure how much i will use it, but so far am enjoying it.

I think the reading journal is a great idea in concept but still needs more work to make it more useful and appealing. I love the idea of journals but if they aren’t handy or appealing, or they have too many ways to fiddle around with them (when they’re digital), I don’t find them useful).

The color scheme is the first thing that sticks out to me as unappealing; while it should incorporate green, to match the NetGalley logo, I have no idea why browns would be used. I also found some of the pages to be ones I’d skip: the covers, the bookcase…. And on the review pages, there needs to be more room, and more customization. (That spiral page also drove me bonkers.)

I wanted to love this, but I just didn’t, as I think it needs more work.

Full disclosure, this didn't work for me so the lack of a real score is neither positive nor negative (3 for the middle). Love the concept though!
