This reading journal is so much more than I was expecting. I love that I can customize it to fit my style and needs. I didn't even know what i was missing out on without this journal.

Absolutely gorgeously crafted book tracker and journal! Easily could be changed around for the readers preferences and easy to fill out! Loved the simplicity and ease of use

I like the idea of this reading journal but I found it a bit difficult to set up and use. The GoodReads website, and app, do almost the same thing and it's a lot easier for me. Thank you for the Reading Journal, NetGalley, but I think I'll stick with GoodReads since I'm much more familiar with that and it is able to do everything that I need.

Unfortunately this didn't work for me but I can see it being really useful.

I need one that works with a laptop sadly.

This is such a good tool for those who are just starting their reading journey and don't really know how to keep track of their progress other than apps like GoodReads and storygraph. I like that it all comes ready to use, and the color palette is also very soothing.

NetGalley's Reading Journal is a great way to help the readers keep track of the books they've read, as well as help them put their thoughts about each of the books down in such a way as to get the reviews out in a timely and concise manner. I really wish this Journal was available when I first started writing my reviews, maybe I would have had a lot more written.

This is great!! I love using it. I printed it because I prefer something tangible for a book tracker. I will use the rest of the year.

This reading journal is a lovely guide to support organization, reflection, and goal-setting! I had been thinking about reading journals for months but couldn't decide what features would best suit my reading habits. The Net Galley Journal is user-friendly and has elevated my reading journey!

The journal has reading challenges which are very useful if you're somebody who likes to keep things light, or can't seem to pick which book should be moved from TBR to "currently reading" . The Net Galley Bingo has me literally itching to fill the page! Who doesn't love a challenge!? Or Bingo?!

The monthly check-ins help me sort my thoughts, are user-friendly, and a great tool to stay organized. Excited to use these check-ins when a student/friend reaches out for a recommendation! Also, the end-of-the-year bracket has me excited to see how 2024 will play out (literarily)!

The NetGalley Reading Journal by We Are Bookish is a game-changer for book lovers and reviewers alike. Whether you're a seasoned NetGalley user or just dipping your toes into the world of online book clubs, this journal has got you covered.

One of the standout features for me is the dedicated space for NetGalley specifics. Being able to track my NetGalley ratio and keep tabs on books currently on my shelf has been a lifesaver when it comes to meeting review deadlines. Plus, the inclusion of sections for favorite quotes and book photos adds a personal touch that enhances the overall reading experience.

While I could always use more space for notes (let's be real, who couldn't?), the simplicity of the layout is both functional and detailed. It strikes the perfect balance between providing essential information about the books I'm reading while leaving room for personalization.

What sets this journal apart is its versatility. Whether you're tracking audiobooks, setting reading goals, or participating in reading challenges, the NetGalley Reading Journal has you covered. And if a page or tracker you want isn't already included, you have the freedom to customize and create your own.

As someone who's kept a reading journal for years, I can confidently say that this digital version ticks all the boxes. It's got everything I need, with the added benefit of digital flexibility. Plus, the ability to easily add book covers and other visuals enhances the overall aesthetic appeal.

Whether you're a digital aficionado or just starting out on your journaling journey, the NetGalley Reading Journal is a must-have. It's aesthetically pleasing, user-friendly, and perfect for anyone looking to elevate their reading experience. Thank you to NetGalley and We Are Bookish for providing such a fantastic resource!

It's nice for keeping track of your books. I can make notes on what I liked and didn't like about each book. I can also make notes on my favorite characters and keep a journal of the authors that I don't want to forget in this ever growing list of new authors.

Thank you NetGalley and We Are Bookish for this beautiful Reading Journal!

It's in PDF format and you can easily edit the prompts. While I typically enjoy physical journals better, I will be using this one to keep my ARC's in order!
