This guide is really practical. Thank you so much for writing this.
What doesn't work for me is the editing on the phone because it is too small and uncomfortable. It is more comfortable to edit it on a computer but I don't want to use a computer when it comes to reading journals. I have a hard copy for now and until editing on the smartphone won't improve, I won't use a digital copy.

Great place to find tips to organize my reading journeys, specifically for my NetGalley reading. The journal is easy to download and navigate like a text. Fun way to review how to track reading and use my journaling in a fun way to connect deeper to my reading.

I really enjoy the digital reading journal and this was helpful to understand it. I appreciated instructions on how to use the different apps and even which apps to use. Thanks!

‘NetGalley Reading Journal User Guide’ by We Are Bookish.
This resource is a very comprehensive book tracking journal. I like that the Journal can be downloaded or saved in some apps; however, I currently do not use Goodnotes. I utilize OneNote for keeping track of many things and just wish this was a resource that could easily be utilized in OneNote and utilized with writing on my ipad. Perhaps there is a way to do this, but I’ve not dug deeper into the use of the electronic version. I have enjoyed completing a few pages, but it isn’t the easiest for my formatting.
I love bullet journals and was excited about this additional resource to consider another way of keeping track of the books I read. I do like that it provides space for writing thoughts as you are reading books. I am hopeful that I will find and begin utilizing this resource in the future.
A really great resource! Thank you again and again!!
Thank you #NetGalley and #WeAreBookish for the opportunity to use and review this #ReadingJournal.

This user guide for the journal is amazing! It's like having a personal coach to guide you through journaling. The instructions are super easy to follow, even if you're new to journaling. With helpful tips and prompts, it's like having a supportive friend cheering you on.

Nice little reading journal guide to help use the NetGalley Reading Journal I applied for. I can't wait to get started and use for all my books this year!

This is a great helpful reference book for the free Reading Journal from NetGalley. Very helpful on how to use it for multiple platforms.

A very helpful guide for the free NetGalley reading journal. Definitely recommend if you are needing some guidance on how to make use of it.

This helped me figure out how to get started with NetGalley. It took a bit for me to get the app to work but it has improved my workflow

It looks awesome! Excited to start using it! I'm also looking forward to more cool updates and features from NetGalley.

This is very informative. It helped me figure out how to use it on my phone instead of a tablet, which was really the only thing I needed. All the other information is good to know as well.

Simple, easily understood guide to using the NetGalley Reading Journal. Since the use of Reading Journal is not really self-explanatory, this is a must-have companion.

This User Guide was helpful in understanding how to use the NetGalley Reading Journal. I really appreciate the We Are Bookish team taking the time to not only create the NetGalley Reading Journal, but also this helpful guide!

Very helpful user guide! I downloaded the NetGalley Reading Journal and definitely was a bit confused about how to get started with it at first. Thank you NetGalley for creating this guide for people like me who are a little clueless haha. This was very helpful and clear and made it easier to understand. Can't wait to get started using the reading journal now!

If you're confused by HOW to use the NetGalley Reading Journal (as I was for a moment) then never fear, download this accompanying guide that will explain it all. There are two apps they recommend (Goodnotes for iOS and Xodo for Windows), and the pdf walks through step by step of how to make the most of the Reading Journal in each of those apps. Bonus points for including a link at the end for how to submit a question if you still need more help on how to use the Journal pdf.

This was very helpful. The user guide recommends Goodnotes and Xodo. I personally exported my journal to Notability. Having a section that relates to other compatible programs (like Notability) would be helpful so that a person does feel like they have to only use those two programs.

I wish this was editable. I have to pay to edit PDFs, and I'd rather not have to print it out. It's a nice design, but so it goes!

What an invaluable guide this proved to be. It exceeded my expectations and really gave me the foundation on which to build.
I know this will be a mainstay in my reviewers toolkit and I’ll keep referring back to it time and time again.

Thank you NetGalley for this great reading journal guide. What a delightful surprise for your readers! It really breaks down the features, and how to access special perks.

This ebook is a guideline to help people to use a digital notebook. It explains two apps that you can use to edit and write in the digital journal: Goodnotes and Xodo. I thought it was a very useful resource.
