I love this method it's much easier to carry around. I just have notebook that I keep lists of books I want to read. Authors to look up. For 2023 a travelers notebook is looking better. Great video. I'm a new subscriber
welcome friend!! honestly that's the beautiful thing about travelers notebooks, they're compact and easy to take with you. there's also a passport size if youre looking for something even more portable!!
Hi Mari! I’m slowly getting into reading more than just graphic novels/manga so I’m back here watching your videos from inspiration. 🙂 I hope you are doing well and I love watching your videos for comfort haha.
Yey! Your reading journal looks very adorable and fun to use. ♥ on days when I read multiple formats, I just track down which format I read the most. Hope you have fun with the trackers. Happy reading!
I really liked your goals, particularly your last one so I'm modifying and using it too. I've been using an insert for my reading too, but I used a stack of books on one side to track the books I buy (and color them in when I read them) and a lined page on the other to track the books I read. I number them so I know how many I've read at the end of the year, and I switch colors every month. This year, I'm trying something totally different, The Bookworm Life Planner.
I love your spreads and this gave me so many ideas for how to set up my journal for 2023 - going to have to try using tombows to break up the space! (and omg diego jumping up to say hi was the cutest thing I've seen all day)
sometimes simplicity is the best way!! honestly i had fun tracking tons of stuff before but now i just wanna slow down and focus on the reads rather than all the other stuff like i used to hehe
Not gonna lie, I took screenshots of all your spreads because they are soooo effective and cute! I’m definitely going to create a space for anticipated releases for anime. xD I’d love to try a buddy read in your book club if that’s gonna happen!! I’m debating on an ereader at the moment, but even if I don’t get one hopefully I can find the books of the month at the library! Also… your creative reading journal thoooo 😍
ahh i hope these spreads help you out (or are at least fun to make)!! i'm not sure if we're going to be more public about our buddy reads, but i definitely want to start a book club if people are interested :-) if all else fails, you can always read e-books on your phone/tablet/computer!!
i love this so much. I set up a. Hobonichi weeks to be my reading journal but i am itching to get back into my travelers notebooks and i didn’t even consider using it as a reading journal. Thank you.
I'm curious, how much time a day do you spend reading books? I want to start reading more, probably going to start with just a book a week for now because I can only take an hour or two every day to read. :) Because of this video I think I'm going to make a reading journal too!
it really depends!! i would say that i also on average read an hour or two a day, but only because i either dont read at all or read a whole bunch. i also listen to a lot of audiobooks while at work, so that helps! but i think as long as youre enjoying what youre reading and going at a pace youre comfortable at, then that's perfect😊👍there's really no rush to read unless youre like me and you just like to live in other's stories rather than your own ahahaha

youre a saint, thank you for sharing and for all the great inspo!!!✨️
I use a TN passport as reading journal. It is so easy to take with me. My regular TN works as my daily planner.
love that!!! the passport's portability makes it such a gem in my books😀

i hope you have fun setting up your spreads for 2023!!🧡 also🥺🥺my angel son
I've been trying to keep a better list of my reads over the year so how you did things is super helpful (I was making things too complicated again🤣)

I've only been counting reading books that were new to me. That way I'm not counting something that I've ready 20 times already.
i love this so much. I set up a. Hobonichi weeks to be my reading journal but i am itching to get back into my travelers notebooks and i didn’t even consider using it as a reading journal. Thank you.
thanks for tuning in!!! i hope that the TN is a good home for your reading journals :-) happy journalling friend!
