Really enjoyed the theme and the different spreads you made! Love the idea of having a reading bingo to diversify! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the Grishaverse, I'll be diving into those this year as well :)
Aww thank you for checking it out. I am really excited to be able to look back at a year in books and the things I jot down in here. Your reading them too!?! That's awesome! We will absolutely have to compare notes! I am so glad I found your channel and saw these journals, because I am so excited as I am starting to use my own! How long have you been using a writing journal?
@@BooknBroom I started with Six of Crows last year and plan to read the rest of them throughout this year! This is my second year of book journalling. Still figuring out what spreads work best for me, so it's always great to see how other people are organising things 😊 but like you said, it's just great looking back at the end of the year!
I watched the entire video and I'm so glad that I did. It was awesome. I love the quotes page. So often you find a great quote and you think that you will never forget it but once you get a chance to use it you then realized that you didn't remember it properly and wish that you had it at your finger tips because you probably don't want to go through the entire book again for a while. Love that idea.
Thank you so much! Exactly my thoughts too. Also sometimes I remember liking a book and just can't put my finger on those gems of comments. Now I can look back and find the quotes I loved in the moment and enjoy them all over again.
THIS IS BEAUTIFULLY DONE. I love your theme so much! Oh my! The best thing about a reading journal that you set up yourself is that you can try spreads and if they don't work, you can always change it to be better suited to your needs! Trial and error is the best part to bullet journalling! I've changed things I've set up in mine already! Your bookshelf is stunning and the corresponding books read spreads makes so much sense. I've already started cramming in the names on the spine haha! Your GoodReads link isn't to your account, just FYI. I tried to add you just now. That reading bingo is genius!! 📚
Thank you! I am so glad to hear you like the way it turned out. I am so happy with it. It makes me smile every time I open it up. I agree on the making it your own. I watched a lot of videos and somethings seems brilliant and I KNEW I had to have it in my journal, and other things, like writing on the spines, I knew was just going to be a hot mess with my penmanship. I am interested to see what things I drop and what other things I pick up as I go along. I spent hours on the bookshelf and am really happy with it, but since doing this I have seen a few others styles that are so much more creative...lol. We will see what I come up with next time. Thank you for letting me know about the good reads link...I will have a look and figure out what I did wrong. I LOVE the bingo idea when I saw it. I am looking forward to trying out different kinds of books and I think it will help m e branch out. Thank you so much for taking the time to check out my channel. It means so much to me!
Thank you so much! You are very kind. Yes a LOT of work went into this, but it has me so excited to read every day and it is such a pleasure to track my reading and a wonderful place to compile my thoughts. Really loving using it. What was your favourite spread?
This is my first reading journal, but I have been journaling, drawing, and using planners for ages. I am so happy to hear you enjoyed the video and like how it turned out. Just posted my January setup and reading wrap up if you are interested in seeing more of the journal.
Alice is such a great theme! I used to not consume via audiobook either, but started in 2020. My favorite of that art form is the memoir read by the author and not an actor. It's so personal. My degree is also English Literature. Shout out from another who gets stuck in the classics! My set up this year is a Lord of the Rings theme. It's time for a reread. ❤ 📕
Oh nice! That sounds amazing! I love LOTR also, soooo freaking great! I just bought my first audio book but have not dived into it yet. I am eager but also nervous...is that strange? Some of the free stuff on audible feels like the narrator hasn't read the next line before they say it so there is a strange disconnect that pulls me out of the story and focuses too much on the voice so I never looked at it further. I am hoping one that the one I bought feels more like being immersed in the world of fantasy. What is your favourite audio book and what makes it so great for you? If you don't mind me asking. I am so new to this and would love to hear your thoughts since you seem to enjoy it. Thank you so much for stopping by. SO lovely to hear from you.
I love your idea about your TBR. I do not have a TBR in my current Reading Journal because I don't really have a list that i want to read. When i am ready to read a book i just pick it. However, having a TBR for book that you already own and want to read is a great idea...maybe that is what a TBR is...that will defiantly be in my Reading Journal for next year. Great layouts and some great ideas.
I am so new to this. I only found the first reading journal video a few weeks ago, and this is my first attempt and figuring out how to make it work for me. I am sure I will change things 100 times over, but for starters, this is what I have come up with. I had no idea what a TBR should look like, but I have so many books that I have collected over the years and NEVER sat down to read. So that's what I am putting on this list. I hope it works out for you. What pages DID you put in your 2022 reading journal? I am so curious about all things reading journal at the moment...hehe
@@BooknBroom I have a bunch and got a lot of inspiration from different TH-camrs. My pages include of course the title page, and Index, Reading goals for the year, Monthly Stats. Pages for Kindle books, short stories and classic book. I did make a 2 page spread with book shelves to track the books i read. I have two challenges this year, the Alphabet Reading Challenge. Read a book that starts with each letter of the alphabet. I have three books on that list already. then i have my Goodreads Challenge pages. I have a 2022 Re-Reads page. There are a few books that i do want to reread, like IT by Stephen King. I read it when it was first released and what to read it again. I have my Book of the Month Book Haul. With all the books that i have i needed that one so as not to buy double. My Wish list, book series trackers, 2022 Book Releases. then I go into my monthly pages. Each month is just a 2 page spread that has the number of books and pages i read for that month, the books that i read for that month along with what book was my favorite and what book i didn't like so much. Oh and i have spread for the Goodreads give-a-ways. I am always entering those. I do have a year at a glance in the works but not sure what i am going to do with that yet. Please if you wold like to steal any of my ideas, help youself
@@ladyscorpsmom WOW! That sounds awesome. I LOVE the idea of a Re-Reads page! I am rereading a few things and I hadn't thought of making that it's own thing, what a wonderful idea. I am so going to adopt that one for next year! Thanks for the wonderful ideas lovely. I really appreciate you taking the time to share all your pages with me!
I absolutely love it! 💕 The 10 cards for your top 10 books was such a perfect idea! The bingo board is awesome - I normally write my goals out like that out as a list but think i’ll try the bingo set up! My other fave page was where you added to the caterpillar drawing ❤️
The bingo is so interesting. I was so happy when I found that! It has so many interesting prompts that I would normally not look for in a book, so I hope it helps me read some books I would not have found otherwise. The little collage pages really make me so happy! I am such a big Alice in Wonderland fan, so it makes me smile and keeps bringing me back to this book, and then back to reading so I can fill up all the pages in this journal! lol...is that silly? Thank you so much for stopping by lovely.
I love your Alice In Wonderland theme. I too looked at MANY podcasts about setting up a reading journal. So many, in fact, I could not get my own started cause I couldn't decide. I think I have settled on nature with the majority being birds.....
Nikie, this is so creative! I use to be a big reader but as my life has changed that has changed also. I have many creative interests and not enough time! Lol! I really enjoyed how you put this together. Very relaxing to watch. Thanks for sharing and inspiring! ❤️
Life really dose make you pick your hobbies, doesn't it? I have so many passions and hobbies and as I lean into one I lose others. It's always the way it goes. I am so glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you so much for checking it out!
Thank you so much! When I started out I just thought it would be kind of fun to see what and how I read in a year, but it's been wonderful taking notes while reading and flipping back on lovely layouts in a pretty book. It's just a lovely experience reliving the stories I have read so far.
Aww thank you so much for checking it out, I am glad to hear you like how it turned out. I am really enjoying using this journal. Love how it turned out too.
O. M. G. I am soooo obsessed with your reading journal! 😍 Alice in Wonderland is my absolute favorite! Our wedding was Alice in Wonderland themed - I had so much fun doing DIY projects for the wedding! ☺ I definitely understood all of your wonderland references! Your journal is absolutely amazing! I have a reading tracker spread in my personal bullet journal and I'm trying out the book bingo for the first time this year. I used left over book pages from the Alice in Wonderland DIYs from the wedding to decorate my book tracker page. I have a video of my bujo set up and our wedding on my channel! The caterpillar TBR page is so clever! I'm debating whether I want to start a reading journal. Seeing yours definitely makes me want to start one! I'm about to binge your other reading journal videos lol 📚♠♥♦♣
Oh wow, a fellow Alice in Wonderland fan, I LOVE IT! I am loving the reading journal not just for tracking my reading (which is great) but also for the journal pages about each book. I like being able to look back at pages, get the vibe of the book from how the page was set up, get the book rating and read my thoughts from when I was in the thick of reading it! It's this book that looks like nothing sitting on the shelf, but when I open it up, it holds all these beautiful moments I have had this year in stories! I never thought I would become attached to a journal when I started this. I just thought 'hey cool, I'll track my reading and a few thoughts' but it becomes so much more then that! It's a part of my history now. I don't know how else to describe it. If you enjoy books, and thinking about what you read after the book is done, consider starting a reading journal. Thank you so much for stopping by and checking out my content. It's wonderful to have your in the family!
This is so beautiful, I loved the Alice in Wonderland theme! Can't wait to see more of your reading journal. Just subscribed!!! 📚Thank you so much for sharing!!!☺
Thank you so much for checking out the channel AND subscribing! Welcome to the fam! I LOVE Alice in Wonderland, clearly...lol. I am so enjoying using this journal and looking forward to bringing more reading journal content through out the year.
I really, really enjoyed watching this Alice spread. Alice is one of my favorite movies, and this fed that need and want to create a similar theme real soon again. ❣️🖤
@@BooknBroom I do! I just started my first this year! Still learning the ins and outs of what works for me. Wish I would've done more research, but I love the simplicity of just starting out...so giving myself some grace this year lol
@@goddess_eve21 I am also just figuring it all out. I did a LOT of research first though as I only just found out this was a thing this last December when people were posting their 2022 set ups, some how it triggered my feed and I was OBSESSED with watching these reading bojo videos. I looked at what people were doing and listened to WHY they were doing things and picked a few things that made scene to me. At the end of the year i am sure I will have a much better idea of what works for me and what I don't like or use. Next year I may have a similar set up or something vastly different. I am loving what I am working with now, and enjoying learning the ropes. But yes! Give yourself the learning time, and time to evolve, change and figure it all out. Then change things and give your self more time to see if that works for ya...hehe This is your journal, if it makes you happy, then it's PERFECT!
I LOVE ❤️❤️❤️ Alice in Wonderland! This is such an awesome journal. You did a truly amazing job with this. I am interested to see how this all works. Are you going to do more videos so we can see this in action?
ME TOO!! Thank you I am so glad you enjoyed the video. I will do the first few months as I am going through and learning how to use this, and likely do a few updates as I figure out exactly what my tracking and journaling style is. I am really glad you are eager to see more!
Hi, personally I’m not a fan of alice in wonderland at all, but your spread is amazing! It’s so good to see something different, I have also watched a load of reading journal setups esp for this year, and they all seem to have the same theme and aesthetic, so I’m so happy to see something totally different, and you used the ideas and themes really well, from the suits as little bookends, and the playing card shape for boxes, honestly I think it’s brilliant. Well done 😊 loved the collages, and all of it really 😄 ♥️♠️♦️♣️
Oh my gosh that was so nice to read. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts. I am so glad you like the way it turned out. I am LOVING using this journal. You are so wonderfully kind. Welcome to the channel!
Hi there! Wanted to return the favor of your nice comments ☺️ I love the Alice in Wonderland theme! Your book shelf turned out great too. I don’t blame you for not wanting to write on it (my handwriting isn’t the best either lol)
Well hello there, thank you so much for stopping by! Oh me too. Alice in wonderland is a classic for a reason and one of my favourites! I am so enjoying using this journal. Tacking what I have read feels like such an accomplishment! It's like being back in uni only I don't have to stress about the grades, just enjoy the books and pen my thoughts about them or what I learned from the story, any messages I took from it. It''s such an enjoyable experience!
Hello and welcome to the family! Thank you so much for checking out the video and the channel, that's very kind of you. I was pleased with how it all turned out considering it's the first time I have tried creating a writing journal. I am so happy you found your way to my neck of the internet. Thanks for subscribing!
I love it 😍 and you've decided to go for an amazing theme! I went for a reading bingo too this year and so far I'm loving it! And I love all your pages, I can't choose only one!
Yay! Thank you! Did you do a a theme for the book or per page, or is this just something I painted myself into? hehe. Thank you so much for stopping by, I am so glad you like the journal so far.
@@BooknBroom I like to use a theme, every month and the yearly set up have their own theme, but when I create a spread about a book that I've read then I don't follow a theme I try to create something that makes me think about that book!
@@journalsbystefy That is exactly what I am doing too. It just made sense to my brain to do it that way. So all the stats and data are in the one theme, then the journal paged per book are designed to the feel of the story I read and my thoughts on that book. How is it working out for you?
I want to start a reading journal this year and have gotten stuck on how to start. I really love the idea of a theme from a book to guide the colors and illustrations! And I love love love your Alice in Wonderland journal! I might just have to copy but I’m thinking about other books that might be good themes. I’m curious what journal you used? ⏳🕰♥️♣️♦️♠️🃏
It's been really great for me having a reading journal. It really helps me get motivated to read more, like a LOT more then I typically do. I just had a dot grid journal from ages ago that I got of amazon. It's nothing fancy or special. The size is smaller then A5 (or what ever the size down from a B5 is) but it's been doing the job. I didn't want to go and send a lot of money on a fancy brand name bojo when I had no idea if I would ever use it. But now that I am, I might upgrade for next year. We will have to see.
Really enjoyed the theme and the different spreads you made! Love the idea of having a reading bingo to diversify! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the Grishaverse, I'll be diving into those this year as well :)

It's like being back in uni only I don't have to stress about the grades, just enjoy the books and pen my thoughts about them or what I learned from the story, any messages I took from it. It''s such an enjoyable experience!
Hey! Finally checked out your page (and subscribed!). I love your Alice theme. I especially liked your Top Ten spread. ❤️♣️♦️♠️🐰👑
Hello and welcome to the family! Thank you so much for checking out the video and the channel, that's very kind of you. I was pleased with how it all turned out considering it's the first time I have tried creating a writing journal. I am so happy you found your way to my neck of the internet. Thanks for subscribing!
This is so creative! I love it! I would love to see an update after a few months! :)
Definitely!! I will be sure to do that. Thank you for the sweet comment.
Tout es absolument magnifique j'adore ! Bravo. 📚📚♠️♥️♦️♣️
Merci beaucoup je suis ravie que ça te plaise ! Merci pour la visite.
I love it 😍 and you've decided to go for an amazing theme! I went for a reading bingo too this year and so far I'm loving it! And I love all your pages, I can't choose only one!
Yay! Thank you! Did you do a a theme for the book or per page, or is this just something I painted myself into? hehe.
Thank you so much for stopping by, I am so glad you like the journal so far.
@@BooknBroom I like to use a theme, every month and the yearly set up have their own theme, but when I create a spread about a book that I've read then I don't follow a theme I try to create something that makes me think about that book!
@@journalsbystefy That is exactly what I am doing too. It just made sense to my brain to do it that way. So all the stats and data are in the one theme, then the journal paged per book are designed to the feel of the story I read and my thoughts on that book. How is it working out for you?
@@BooknBroom so far for me it's amazing, and when something works I don't see a reason to change it so I'm still doing it!
@@journalsbystefy Of course, no need to fix what isn't broken. Glad it's all working out for you.
i absolutely loooove this theme!!
Aww thank you for checking it out! I love Alice in Wonderland...not that you could tell, right? hehe
Love this set up, One of my favorite movies.. Added you on goodreads, I am Libby Gregory on there
Oh wonderful, thank you so much!
@@BooknBroom you're very welcome
Great video. The theme came outstanding.
Thank you! I am really happy with it. I appreciate you checking it out.
Great video. I absolutely watched to the end and can't wait for more of this amazing content. So enjoyable great content.
More to come! I am loving using this little puppy.
I want to start a reading journal this year and have gotten stuck on how to start. I really love the idea of a theme from a book to guide the colors and illustrations! And I love love love your Alice in Wonderland journal! I might just have to copy but I’m thinking about other books that might be good themes. I’m curious what journal you used? ⏳🕰♥️♣️♦️♠️🃏
It's been really great for me having a reading journal. It really helps me get motivated to read more, like a LOT more then I typically do. I just had a dot grid journal from ages ago that I got of amazon. It's nothing fancy or special. The size is smaller then A5 (or what ever the size down from a B5 is) but it's been doing the job. I didn't want to go and send a lot of money on a fancy brand name bojo when I had no idea if I would ever use it. But now that I am, I might upgrade for next year. We will have to see.
@@BooknBroom Thanks!
It looks so good !!
Aww, I am so pleased you like how it turned out.
Awesome, great video.
Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving a comment. I am so glad you enjoyed it.
