I love your reading journal. I am 74 years old, and have been keeping book lists since 1993. I was inspired to do so by an aunt who read widely and kept her own "book of books." In the early years, I just listed title and author but later began including notes about the book. Then after several years I began marking favorites and indicating which books were selections of my book group. Your creative journal has given me some new ideas to adopt and I will be making some additional changes this year. I aso keep a Word document with just title and author, and exchange it at the end of each year with my cousin who does the same. Sharing books with others only increases the joy. Have you thought of publishing and selling your journal? I'm sure you would find an enthusiastic market.
“Practically dinosaurs with wings” 🤣🤣🤣 I’m not laughing at your discomfort… but the phrase! Lmao! Love the set you girlie! Looks awesome! And yes why change something that is working!
Very nice!!!😍😍😍 I wish I had the motivation to read more!!!💯💯💯 I Love all of your new designs and will continue watching your reading journey!!!👍👍👍Much Love from FL 💖💞🌴💖💞🌴💖💞🌴
For 2023 I'm using multiple planners for the first time. I use a big vertical, and I use the weekly spreads for memory keeping, adding pictures of our activities and the books I've read. Now that my boys are older, we have more homeschool activities, so more pictures, but I also have more time to read (who can read with babies lol). So I need more space. I'm planning to use two bigs for next year - one family calendar/memory keeper, and one health and wellness for me/book tracker 🙂
This is so interesting. I’ve never seen a reading journal and I always read a ton of books. I’m going to work some of these ideas into my happy planner
I’ve never had a reading journal before but I have one set up for 2023-so exciting! I love all the trackers you’re using, and I added another one to my reading journal that is called rainbow reading. It requires me to read a book with each different color of the rainbow in the title :-) very excited about searching for those books.
I just purchased your book review printable. Any suggestions for the easiest method to cut them to the right size? I usually put a piece of filler paper on top of the printable to measure but that can be hard to see where to line it up (unless I hold it up to the light).
I have an author page like yours for Lee Child's Jack Reacher series. I'm trying to not only read them all but collect them all, so I have a check box for whether I own it and then a place for a review 👍
In 2021, I read 100 books. This year, I had read only ~65. Now, in December, I am reading several short romance stories a day to try to match my goal. 10/10 do not recommend this method.
R was what my college used in the weekly schedule for Thursday, so that’s what I’ve always done to differentiate Tuesday and Thursday so they’re both not T

I love this! I love to read, so this would be great. Many blessings.
I love your reading journal…you have convinced me to start a reading journal using Happy Planner…love this video
Yay! I'm so glad!

And yes why change something that is working!
Thank you!!! I’m off to set up a Reading journal!!!
Have fun!
I'm so fascinated by the turkey vultures. Seeing them on top of houses is a little frightening.
They're terrifying lol!

I absolutely love your book review sheets! It's a great idea!
Thanks so much!
Love your setup! I have mine set up similarly using an HP monthly layout. Thanks for sharing! I'll watch Jess's next... 😊

😂😂😂 As soon as you said dinosaurs with wings I laughed so hard

I love that idea and I’m so excited for you!
Great inspiration/ideas. Looking forward to listening and watching how this setup works for you in 2023! 🕎💙💛🪴
Thank you!
I love the log/rating page. I just ordered 5 books and i'm motivated to get back into reading
Hey! Love this idea!! How do you go about printing the cover of the books?
Just an idea ... but what about using the year in pixels as a way to track what genre of books you are reading?
That's a good idea! I ordered another one recently and may add that in! Thanks!
Thank you for this! I have been trying to figure out how to do a reading journal with my HP! Thanks for all the ideas ❤
Glad it was helpful!
This us good! So many fabulous ideas to review books.
For the A-Z you could try doing it with authors name.
Good idea!
Where did you get the miniature book covers?
TFS ....think gonna copy yur design.

Hi! If you can send me a message on Etsy with your email address and order number, I can send you a file with cut marks for Classic
May I ask how you get a sticker of the book cover?
I have a tutorial here- ruclips.net/video/8pzrgRZXJ0c/видео.html

Do you mind sharing font information that you used for the quote? TIA!!
It's called Moontime!
@@planwithilysse Thank you so much!!!
Where did you get the Books to Read sticker?
They’re from PlannerKate.com
@@planwithilysse thank you!

can someone explain to me why there is an "R" for Thursday in her month headers?

@@planwithilysse thank you!
