I love the netgalley reading journal! Great place to keep track of all my reads for the year! I've been looking for something that I could use specifically for my NetGalley books and this is perfect, thanks!

The NetGalley Reading Journal is a wonderfully helpful and neatly organized tool for tracking reads, reviews, and book details with ease!

Very cute and practical, perfect for keeping track of the books I read and how I found them.
Thank you NetGalley for this Reading Journal. Now my records are much more organized

Perfect for those that love to keep track of their reading. I like using it on my iPad to remember how I rated books

This journal is very helpful in keeping up with books that are on your “to be read” list in NetGalley. The prompts are extremely useful and even inspire some of the pages I create in my personal reading journal. The NetGalley specific prompts help with tracking my progress and to keep me accountable for reading the ARCs that were provided to me. I would recommend this journal to any reader, especially ones who are just getting started with NetGalley and want a convenient way to tracking their performance and reading habits.

My first time having a reading journal! It looks so cute and very well organized. Can't wait to start using it to keep track of my reviews and write down my thoughts while reading.
Thank you to We Are Bookish and Netgalley for this amazing resource.

I am loving this! It is such a fun Journal. The features are so nice, tracking my reads is going to be so easy.

Thanks for this helpful tool. I have begun to use it on my ipad but would love an app version that I can pull up on my phone.

I really liked this reading journal. It tracked my books just like I wanted it to with some extras. I have used many different reading journals and some have been really complicated to use, but not this one. It is simple and straightforward.

Perfect for the IPAD and easy to use. I use a physical journal but this digital one is also a great companion for ease and speedy notetaking. I love the digital goodies (stickers, rating stars) that Netgalley also offers. Highly recommend for anyone who is curious about using a reading journal. Reading journals enhance your retention of the story along with just being fun. Thank you Netgalley for offering this and for it being cute!

Fun journal! Thanks for sharing this NetGalley! I'm excited to track my reading digitally with this!

Loved this reading journal! I've had fun toying with it in Canva and will continue to use it throughout the year.

This has really helped me learn how to journal about the books I’ve read. It helps me teach and learn more about the books. I’m excited to keep using the prompts and ideas to grow my book journey.

I love keeping track and organized and this journal does just that! The bright colors are uplifting and the simple, yet important details are just perfect!
Thank you!

I honestly love having a little reading journal on me,it's a first for me to actually have a reading journal and keeping track of what I read and how much my opinions change over a little. I love it

I really love this journal. I will print it so that I can have it as a keepsake. I thought possibly to use and edit it digitally but I do enjoy the process to write by hand and I am working in front of a computer everyday for work.
I would definitely recommend it to other NetGalley users and keen readers as a great way to track your reading of 2025. It’s very attractively put together too.

This is an amazing digital journal. I had been wanting to do book journaling but didn’t know which one to use. This was free and completely customizable! They include fun challenges to work on through the year. I can’t recommend this book enough!
I am using this on my iPad with good notes, but you could easily print this as well if you don’t want to journal digitally.

I really like the idea of this reading journal and it's got some fun stuff in it, but it's just not for me. I read far more than the average person, so a single book, no matter how cool, just will not suffice to track my reading.
Even though it doesn't suit me, I think the NetGalley journal is a wonderful resource that many will enjoy.

✔ Organized layout – The journal provides dedicated spaces for key book details, release dates, publisher information, and review notes, making it easy to keep track of ARCs.
✔ Review prompts – Helpful sections guide reviewers in structuring their thoughts, ensuring they cover plot, characters, themes, and overall impressions.
✔ Reading tracker & progress logs – Includes sections for logging reading goals, TBR lists, and NetGalley feedback progress, helping users stay on top of deadlines.
✔ Aesthetic & practical design – Clean, bookish aesthetic with enough writing space without feeling overwhelming.
What Could Be Improved:
❌ Limited flexibility – While great for NetGalley users, it may not be as useful for tracking books from other sources unless adapted manually.
❌ Not digital-friendly – If you prefer digital journaling or spreadsheets, this physical format might feel redundant. A digital version would be a nice alternative.
❌ Could use more personalization options – A few more blank pages for additional notes, doodles, or custom tracking (such as series tracking) would add versatility.
⭐ 4/5 – A well-designed, useful tool for book reviewers, especially NetGalley users.

Helpful. Don't think there's much else I can say, really. Worth a glance if you're starting out on NetGalley I guess.
