Hi Rach!!! 💗Could you maybe do monthly reading journal updates, showing how you start a new page for every month and going through what you've done in your reading journal at the end of each month? 📖✨
I am thinking about setting up a reading journal for the first time next year and just saw your video. So comprehensive and very useful. Thank you for sharing. 🥰
If you like reading data you should try out storygraph! It's just goodreads, but it gives you a bunch of visual graphs about your reads for the year -- I love it!
Loved this!! Thanks for showing us! Suggestion for re-reads: Thoughts/perceptions that have changed or remained the same. Reading the same book at different stages in life yields different discoveries about yourself 💛 happy reading!
Can I just say your video is soooo inspiring! As someone who loved journaling and is trying to get back into it, same with reading I am excited about creating a mini version of this reading journal inspired by yours! 💕💕 thank you for the inspiration!
It is my second year with reading journal. It is a nice change instead of keeping up with everything digital. Keeping track of things on paper has more charm.❤
Loveee this! Would love to see a 6-month journal check in/update or something 💗 I use Notion at the moment to track my reads, but would LOVE to get a physical journal, it looks so fun and creative
Awhh omg!! She delivered!!! 🥰💘 the spreads look so cute! And it was nice to hear about why you kept some and got rid of some! I will definitely take some ideas and inspiration from yours, such as the series tracker which look sso nice and clean
I usually am not a fan of books spreads set ups videos but YOURS OMG!! ❤ it’s so pretty and it looks amazing and really inspiring!! Love from France 🫶🏼
Your reading journal setup is absolute perfection!! My Primrosia journal just came in the mail today, and I am LOVING the thick watercolor pages! Thank you for the recommendation
This was really cute and pretty!!! I actually really enjoyed this video. I have a request can you show us you feeling this every month. In your monthly wrap ups.
I like those ideas. I need to do a Bucket List spread for those nagging classics I aspire to read one day. And that TBR cart is so cute. I might do a focused small TBR spread like that. I need to do a bucket list for those "classics" I aspire to read one day. My actual TBR is too huge to create a comprehensive spread for that is usable. I don't like microtracking personally, so any data spreads aren't practical for me. I know I can use goodreads, but I don't even tract all my online reading there (I read light novels and fanfic a lot and many are not on goodreads). If you have space in a journal you want to use, creating a Top 10 books of all time (I did top 25 because I am a huge rereader), Top 10 Favorite authors, and individual spreads for favorite series (especially nice if you are doing a reread) is always a creative and fun project. And over the years the choices can change, so that is nice to commemorate. Series spreads I have done: Bridgerton, Anne of Green Gables, Lord of the Rings trilogy, Vorkosigan series, and Sherlock Holmes. Authors: Jane Austen, Edgar Allen Poe, and the Bronte sisters.
rachel your spreads are THE CUTEST!! i used to bullet journal so this is really taking me back LOL but i love love love how yours turned out, it’s so you 💗💗💗
I saw Harry Potter & I can't wait for you to dive into the series ^-^ It was a trademark of my teen years... I used to go to the midnight book releases. Thanks a ton for this. I've been thinking about setting 1 up myself now that I've been reading so much more. Happy new year! 💜
Waiting for mine from Little Inklings Design to arrive (late ordering). It is heading across Canada to me at the moment. Also have a second order to be shipped of planner supplies that was made last Saturday when they did a restock of products ❤
I am trying to create a journal tracker but I am finding that if I use our typical bullet journal like this I never have enough room or I leave too much so I wanted to work on a binder insert type just trying to figure it out. Thanks for your inspo
Hi Rach, just thought I’d ask as I always struggle with how to track this, but what would you do if you have a physical copy of a book but also read that on kindle / ku as well? Would you put it in kindle reads or is that section just for books you read entirely on your kindle?! 💕
Hello, does anyone know the colored craft paper that Rachel used or have any recommendations on good colored craft paper? I’m looking for some for my journal ❤️📚
Hey Rach. Love the video. Just a bit of humble feedback for you. Maybe try slowing videos like these down. I found it a bit too fast. I understand that it is probably this way because you didn't want the video to end up too long but just thought I'd let you know! ❤
I saw the title not knowing this was actually about a journal about "reading". This is gonna sound weird, but I thought it was going to be about making a journal you can go back and read without feeling embarassed that you stressed over little things that didn't matter or cringey brain dumps. All that said, though, loved the artistry with these spreads. I read a lot but maybe not this much- although I'm probably overdue to update my Excel sheet with the books I own
Hi Rach!!! 💗Could you maybe do monthly reading journal updates, showing how you start a new page for every month and going through what you've done in your reading journal at the end of each month? 📖✨
Or maybe a quarterly update would be great 😊
Would love ❤
if you ever created reading journals for people to buy, i would be one of your first buyers. i love these so much and love the creativeness 💗
PLS. ACTUALLY I WOULD BUY

What about applying a light/thin layer of modpodge on the glitter page. Then you won’t worry about stars and glitter coming off :)
Interesting spreads. Love your 2023 vs 2024 ❤

Been waiting for this!!! 🫶🏻
Waiting for mine from Little Inklings Design to arrive (late ordering). It is heading across Canada to me at the moment. Also have a second order to be shipped of planner supplies that was made last Saturday when they did a restock of products ❤
Love the bookshelf pages. Little Inklings does that too. And I loved coloring that in to show how many books I read❤
Where do you print your little book covers from? This was so satisfying to watch. Loved it!
If you created this reading journal I would definitely purchase it 😂
So would I!
I am trying to create a journal tracker but I am finding that if I use our typical bullet journal like this I never have enough room or I leave too much so I wanted to work on a binder insert type just trying to figure it out. Thanks for your inspo
Would love to know she got those flowers perfectly arranged on the page ! Was it stencil she penciled in or just free handed it? 🤯
Oh I absolutely loved this
Your journals look amazing!! 🫶🏼 I also love tracking data so im definitely going to add that to my journal this year
You are so organised! I just glue things into mine 😅
Yay! Thank you for filming this Rachel! x
Oh my gosh if you love stats you'd love storygraph. It's like goodreads but with stats. It's way better imo
Hi Rach, just thought I’d ask as I always struggle with how to track this, but what would you do if you have a physical copy of a book but also read that on kindle / ku as well? Would you put it in kindle reads or is that section just for books you read entirely on your kindle?! 💕
NEVER have i clicked faster on a video!!!!
It’s looks so beautiful 😍🥰
HERE FIRST!! Love this Rachel! This was SO helpful and aesthetic ❤
This is amazing! Thanks for sharing. I wish I was this creative and artistic lol
Your so talented
With your new books you should also add the price or “gifted” on it so you know how much you spend on books too.
Very good! 😊
Using this as inspiration!
Would be cool for you re-reads to list your original rating and new rating!
LOVE this video!!
Great video Rachel!
Hey Rachel what supplies do u use when annotating books? Were the fineliners you showed in the video okay for underlining things in a book?
Love the simple spread rachel. Added all the stationery to my cart :)))) Where do you get stickers from?
I love this so much!
Loved this so much!!!!
How did you do the setup for the physical tbr where there are pages within?
Can you share the markers you use?!? ALSO YOURE MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE!!! ❤
Linked in the description 🥰
This was such a fun video!❤
aaa so cuute
3:03 like book bingo but bigger
what does the G and PG mean on the reading log page? Journal looks great!
G = genre and pg = number of pages! 🩷
Hello, does anyone know the colored craft paper that Rachel used or have any recommendations on good colored craft paper? I’m looking for some for my journal ❤️📚

can you tell me the name of the pen you used to color the page blue?

Have you read the poppy war series??
