This journal is so cute and fun! I'm a big fan of journaling my reading, so I rushed to download this and get started. The We Are Bookish team is so thorough and has provided a variety of ways to track your reading, including some fun extra pages focusing on diversifying your reading and a couple fun changes like reading the alphabet and the rainbow! I'm so stoked to track my reading with this throughout the year!

I really liked the 2024 reading journal, and this one is just as good. It's very visual, which I enjoy, with illustrations and areas for stickers. I wish that the monthly illustrations were a little bit more seasonally/holiday themed, but they're still really cute. I love that there are monthly sections but also overall yearly challenges. The color scheme is really pretty, and it reminded me of a gorgeous sunset. One challenge that I'd love to see in the next one is a geography-based challenge where you can mark states or countries off as you read books that are set in those places. Overall, a really useful and fun tool. Thanks to We Are Bookish for another great resource for tracking reading!

Is a super practical and beautiful reading journal. I totally loved that is self-explanatory, makes it easier to understand what is every thing designed for.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is an awesome helper for everyone trying to get a little organisation into their arc shelf. I love that it’s self-explanatory and the colours make me happy. Thank you for this free tool to make my reading life easier.

I love the NetGalley Reading Journal concept! For me, it will be better utilized as a physical journey so it is my intention to be able to print out the downloaded journal to be able to use, but overall the concept is fantastic. If NetGalley ever decides to publish a physical journal, I would be so appreciative! I understand the concept is electronic material, but it is easier for my journals to be physically kept.

Perfect! So excited to use this now that I've gone digital with my planning and journalling. Much prettier and funner than spreadsheets.

Super easy reading journal to use and track your reading. I love the new colour palette! It includes review pages for each book, sorted by each month, and it has fun challenge pages.

Despite being an avid reader, I don't have that much experience with journaling, but this one has captured my attention and I will surely start keeping a journal this year. For someone like me who works and splits her time between reading and other hobbies, I think it will be quite beneficial. It will keep me organized and give me the necessary impetus to finish the books I have pending.

While I enjoy the layout, the PDF format cannot be edited without an Adobe subscription, which makes it difficult to access. It would be helpful to make it available in multiple formats in the future

This Reading Journal is so aesthetic and has everything a reader needs to track their year! Using the guide was very helpful in navigating which app to download this to, but once I got it to the right place, using it was pretty simple. I love how colorful and fun it is, and how incredibly organized. I don’t think I’ll personally use every single feature provided, but it’s nice to know they’re there in case I change my mind. The other downloadable content was great too. There are stickers for different star ratings which is always something I struggle drawing so I’m so happy to have those. It was also fun to download the bonus pages because it gives me more ideas for different reading challenges. And a lot of the books you read can count for multiple challenges which also makes it fun. I’ve already inputted the few books I’ve read this year and filled out the get to know you page, and I’m really excited to use this journal all year.

What a fantastic reading journal! I love it and cannot wait to use it this year. It's super easy to use, and beautifully designed.

As a first time book journalist, sofar I'm loving logging my books electronically like this. It is really well put together and there are lots of free stickers. I do wish it had a bigger page for preorders or new releases. I'm not as familiar with Goodnote, so it has been a bit of a learning curve.

Also, it is recommended that you use this with a free at such as Goodnotes, but I wasn't able to find a free version. Gootnotes 6 is now a yearly subscription. It wasn't too much, so I ended up buying it this year, but I'm not sure if I'll continue to do that in the future.

I can't believe you gave this away for free

Love the new colors, stickers, and pages. This journal makes keeping track of my reads fun and easy. The additional pages are a great addition and I'm very much looking forward to the challenges. Especially the We Need Diverse Books challenge. The stickers are so cute and I'm excited to add them to my journal.

The idea of the NetGalley Reading Journal is amazing and it is so well laid out. I love the bright colors of the sunshine palette.

Likes: I love the different activities and the flexibilities of them like the Habit tracker where you can choose what habits you have when reading and follow them, you can pick what challenge you want to follow (A-Z or categories), or a bingo board. The book review page is a great way to keep your reviews well organized for individual books on a page as well as a way to place many books on a page with just a way to keep track of how you read the book.

Dislikes: You have to use a separate note taking app, which you have to pay for, to actually use the journal and it is VERY confusing. I am pretty technologically savvy and I have been playing around with it for over an hour and am getting very frustrated with it and since I keep track of my books on Goodreads anyway, I’m not going to use this journal.

Thank you to NetGalley and We Are Bookish for the ARC

Uhhh, how sweet is this reading journal?! With tab links and all?! Be sure to download the User Guide as well, it really helps understand how to best utilize this amazing journal. Can't wait to track all my reads here this year. Shooting for 75!

I really enjoyed the journal layout! It covered all the areas needed for my reviews. The colour scheme is really nice, too.

I enjoy the yearly journals. I wish they could be put in a physical form. I prefer writing in a book

This journal is very useful for book lovers. You have different stats and a nice perspective over your reading in a year. I'm so happy I got a copy of this journal and I cant wait to share my full year in books. Really highly recommended!

Cute, easy to use, and had a lot of options depending on what you were looking for in your book review.

I love this reading journal! This will definitely help mr keep track of my books physically. It will be fun to keep track of them this way and allow me to be creative. Seems easy to use as well which is always a bonus!
