    YAY...I'm not the only one who starts Reading Journals in June. LOL. I do it this way because I am a teacher and use the academic year.

      Oh that makes a lot of sense with the school schedule!! Yeah I’ve been using this journal for around a year now.. it’s getting close to full so I’m trying to conserve space and make it last through 2024! We’ll see if I can make it😅

    I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that started late in the game with the book journaling I just started I made one for next month October.... I'm pretty excited about it and that's I had never even heard about it before just recently. It's never too late to get started though I don't think

    This really inspires me to make a reading journal or spread, but I already made a really nice spread for reading in the back of my dated planner.. I literally already got my bujo and supplies out but then realised I've used all the good images etc for those spreads in my daily planner. Now I'm torn haha! Thank you for the inspiration

    • @anabruns

    Lovely spread, just found your channel today. Don't worry about what time you started your reading journal - I'm about a year behind of mine because I got a bit lazy with updating mine but getting back into it now. Lucky I have my bookstagram and goodreads account to help me remember what books I read!

    • @anabruns

    I keep wanting to set up a reading journal, but I haven't gotten there yet! It will probably take me until 2024 by this point haha. I love these spreads and want to do a similar reading log, but I think I want to include the author too. If I like a book, I tend to look for more by the same author. Some of my favorite books I've read this year are Hero of the Empire by Candice Millard (it's about a young Winston Churchill, I had no idea he was a POW!), In Order to Live by Yeonmi Park (about a young girl who escapes North Korea) and Gay Girl, Good God by Jackie Hill Perry (it taught me so much about the heart of Christ). I have read 3/4 books that Candice Millard has written and both of Yeonmi Park's books too.

      I was in the same boat, it took me a long time of thinking about starting a reading journal before finally doing it!🤪 Author would be a great category to track for sure, I also like going on little binges of reading from the same person haha. Thanks for sharing those books, wow they ALL sound super interesting!!
