This is the best reading journal I’ve ever seen! You are so talented 😍

[@Siobhancaitlynbooks]

Omg what?? This is one of the most addicting reading journals I’ve ever seen!! I’ve started doing like an online reading journal so I can just write my reviews and keep a track of books and not stress and now you’ve made me want a physical journal againnnn😭😭😭

[@jwardy2711]

I love how you do scripture in the beginning of your videos, this one blessed me today. I love your journal! 💗

[@MariamRizvi]

Oh these spreads are absolutely stunning Rachel!! I love how simple but aesthetic these are 🥰 major inspo for me! I love the library reads page - def need to add that one to mine since I've been loving borrowing books lately!

[@Lisalivess]

Okay wow your reading journal is beautiful!!! Love your book videos so much, I could and would watch them all day. Can't wait to see the book content for this year! Never doubt if we would be interested in these videos because I know we would 100% watch them.

[@elliesaito]

so excited for all your book content in 2023!!💖

[@Sophiecosgrove22]

Same! ❤

[@charmtaduran]

i love your videos and your vibe so much, your videos always give me comfort

[@megh343]

The best notification 🤌🏽♥️

[@kmitte03]

Thanks for sharing this! I’ve gotten back into reading these past two years because of a lot of your recommendations! Looking forward to more content this year from you- and more book recommendations

[@marthamitchell6633]

This is honestly the best journal video I've ever watched and also the best reading journal I've seen! Will definitely be taking inspo from this! I love how well thought out the pages are and will actually motivate me to fill them out because they are all so practical! Anyone else now want to see Rach's normal bullet journal? 😍 Also- please can we have monthly spread updates even in book videos at the end? I'd love to see the progression of the journal! 💞

[@itsnoterica]

I love how simple but so beautiful & creative all of your spreads are!

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Yay, another new video from Rachel!

[@valeriebaron]

You should really create your own reading journal to sell, it looks so amazing! And maybe you can make a copy of the first page and color that one in so you can see how it turns out if its colored :)

[@Acc8441]

Excited for the reading vlogs! They’re my favs to watch too ❤

[@tahlia4189]

Rachel! This journal looks absolutely incredible!! The attention to detail is just amazing 💗

[@Charlenetpr]

Your journal is so beautiful! Cant wait to see your bookish content and reading vlogs this year 🫶🏻

[@parkerandme6506]

I really love your reading journal. I’ve tried so many times to keep up with one, but never been successful. I think your spreads are easy enough for me to maintain, thanks for the inspiration! Happy Reading!

[@sarab7794]

So organised. Absolutely my kind of video 😊 wish you a lovely weekend ahead.

[@ThisIsMeEmna]

actual doable and fun cute reading goals ! gonna use some of them myself. thanks Rachel!

[@kalistaputri491]

This is the most creative reading journal I've ever seen. Cant wait to see how it is filled!

[@zuhrecangoz413]

Best book journel i have ever seen!Getting lots of inspiration from you!

[@zapisanekartki3845]

Love your reading journal! I feel like everyone is doing the same things over and over but you somehow manage to make it different (not really because it's limited to what spreads you can make but still it seems different) and I love it. I'm doing my research and saw already so many videos with spreads but yours looks neat and something I would use. Gonna steal some of your ideas for my reading journal hope you don't mind ;)

[@shelleylawrence8397]

I feel the same way about having a lot of unread books on my shelf. Love your bullet journal!

[@caitlynbloxham3530]

I am so here for your book journey in 2023! I would love to see you opshopping for your books too! I love seeing what you find second hand too x x

[@purnimasharma8981]

This was such an amazing video and definitely gave me many ideas for my reading journal

[@sixofchaos]

love love love this! inspired me for some of my future spreads!

[@angie-tm7qg]

one of my fav videos ever!!

[@tasmynhadden1380]

Ok but would you ever mass produce and sell these?? 🥹🥹 because this is the most beautiful thing I’ve seen

[@TaylahLouiseBudgets]

Totally agree

[@wheatieee47]

She really should

[@llw04939]

Oh my gosh, yes. I would buy one in an instant.

[@Saammi619]

Agreeee!

[@lenkasustackova4560]

Yes!

[@hollyaussiebookbabe4509]

Love everything about this video 🥰

[@chelseaforker9469]

I'm so inspired by your pages! I cant wait to break my reading journal back out. Please make another video of your monthly spreads too!

[@WestAussieDiamondArtReads]

Fellow Aussie here. My local libraries don't have a great physical selection of books available lately. Or at least that's how how it seems. I'm jealous of you if your library has great selection.

[@gabbysteed9562]

your book journal is absolutely amazing rach! I wish I had one like yours 😍 your reading goals sound great! I'm also hoping to read 80 books and prioritise finishing series that I'm currently reading. can't wait for all your book related content this year and it's a big yes from me for reading vlogs!! 🥰

[@evaantoniia]

This is a great journal ❤️ it looks really good 😊

[@meljaay7]

You have inspired me to start a reading journal!!! Love it

[@stephaniecrossman2864]

rach if you’re seeing this please make this a yearly video! a 2024 version would be the best 🫶

[@isabeaubottroff3862]

loved this!!!

[@naomisteenstratoussaint]

your handwriting is soooo pretty i love it, and ik obsessed with all the doodles 😍💗✨

[@indialillyclark]

BRB going to start a reading journal! Love your reading videos soooooo much

[@gracelyn5117]

Can you please do an updated flip through at the end of the year with everything filled out?😍

[@wheatieee47]

This is so incredible oh my gosh! So so gorgeous, love the aesthetic 😍🌷

[@kelliewithanienotay]

Totally agree with the other comments. Your reading journal is beautiful and so well thought out. I've really enjoyed watching this video. Will you do an update half way through the year or at the end of the year? I'd love to see it filled in 💕 And yes please to more reading vlogs and videos! 🙏📚

[@agguleng7737]

Your reading journal is stunning 😍😍 and I am really looking forward to more reading vlogs, I also really love watching them!😍😊

[@carladevilliers2336]

[@evelientx]

[@claragorges2691]

You're so talented! i loved watching this x

[@user-yj5wj1uw6u]

rach this is STUNNING! i have a reading journal, and i love it however it's nowhere near this level! but i'm definitely gonna take some inspo from your incredible spreads

[@jessicaatkins4089]

Would you do for journal videos or scrapbook ones. Loved those videos you did in the past

[@bonnt10]

Thanks for the inspiration! I haven’t set up my reading journal yet because I wasn’t sure what spreads I wanted!

[@evie.x]

I love love loovveee your reading journal its literally the most creative and beautiful one i have ever seen! Def get some inspooo c.c I love the dnf graveyard 😭

[@madiduff5806]

The most perfect video! ❤

[@livmelly6966]

I fell in love your voice omg

[@Books.868]

Amazing video

[@natashacorrado]

brown and gold for the book in the cover page!!

[@xxceditsxxx]

AHH Can not wait to watch this 💛

[@matildadevere785]

Ooo this is amazing!

[@themyriambm]

Omg you should do a mid year flipthroughhhh!!!!

[@maariyahsacha]

there is a hack i’ve found with pens/markers which is to store them with the tip side down or lying down since the ink won’t dry out

[@JemimaRose]

this was so neat oh my goodness... zero flaws

[@exploringmegan]

Totally understand loving watching other people read. I think I spend as much time on Booktube as I do reading 😂

[@jankagura7732]

I got so many great spread ideas!!!

[@isabellaascenzo4770]

You should do pink and orange for the title page! That’s the theme I’m going with for my book journal and I love it!!!! Your journal is so cute!!!!!!

[@taylorpaigee]

Rachel... I am pausing this video and running to Barnes & Noble to get a journal and make this. omggg

[@Ingrid-jx7iz]

1:39 First time I’ve seen a spread like that, it’s so cool!!! Can you do a video showing how you made it?

[@michellemp1626]

Great video! I have a recommendation for the memoir square in your book challenge. It's called What Remains by Carole Radziwill. Her writing is so poetic and beautiful. It was such wonderful book, I absolutely loved it!

[@aditinc3828]

Sooooo gooodddd🎉🎉🎉… loved it

[@bronnyd7654]

This makes me so excited to read this year! I’m definitely going to borrow some of your ideas and do some similar book journaling. You might consider trying JD Robb. I just finished Things We Never Got Over and if you haven’t already read it you would probably love it!

[@manonvo8615]

Omg this is sooo cute, makes me want to do this! But I only read about 12-20 books max a year😹

[@sharonhill6184]

Would love to see more reading vlogs.

[@smiley1girl00]

your book journal is stunning! mine is so boring in comparison i wanna redo with the inspo from yours 😅

[@em-alice]

You need to read the Red Queen series! It is great and I am currently just starting book #2- you will love this series I know it! : Also, this is super cute & neat and I love all the colors, designs, pages, trackers.... makes me happy!

[@chrissyodonnell1032]

Love your drawings in your journal ! I can’t draw at all so if I start one I better do it in all pencil first 😂

[@alexandraheinrich1002]

Rach its Alexa, back to 5am morning alarms and fresh peach tea, have a summery new year in January 2023. 🍉

[@AshleyJade18]

Sooo cute! You could honestly start a business selling 'Reading Journals' that you designed 💖 Also, i got a Kindle for Christmas but before i added it on my Wishlist for Christmas, i was going back and forth to whether it was something that i would love, i just wasn't sure that reading on a device would be satisfying ... Now that i have it, i must say that i absolutely LOVE Kindles!! (the 'time left in chapter' makes it satisfying 😂).. So much so that, i think that i am done with buying physical books all together... Maybe, we will see! 😄

[@shelleybelly87]

Love the DNF graveyeard LOL

[@user-yj5wj1uw6u]

like others have said it would be so so cool if you sold these!

[@abs9418]

So aesthetically pleasing! ❤ your writing is like a font!!! Where did you manage to get the greenish coloured journal? Amazon seems to only have the pink one or blue one

[@Mohammadzabuasi]

I would DEFINITELY buy one if you produce and sell these 🥺

[@autumn8510]

You should do a flip through at the end of the year to see how far you’ve gotten

[@carriehagstrom9777]

Your journal is so creative! It would be so cool if you were able to sell those! (although I’m sure it’s a lot of work!)

[@isobelwright412]

✨❔❔Hey, i was wondering what pens you use so that it doesnt leak to the other pages?

[@johngilbert7357]

Hello Rachel, She started it....out June this year, would love to hear your review of this book on Goodreads 🙂 Not sure how you manage to read so many books? 2 a month is my max😆

[@victoriaivy5953]

My mums best friend is an Australian Author. Her name is Fleur McDonald and she writes mystery romances about a small country farming town. I’d be so interested if that’s something you’d like

[@melaniem189]

umm... could you make one for me? your reading journal is so beautiful and so well thought out! i don't have the patience to make one lol

[@MarkLife1]

First view like and comment!

[@jessreadsit]

Love your reading journal, wish I could do mine that way, I have mine on my iPad. Also love how minimalist your home is, so clean and tidy, it inspires me! I recently started a Booktube channel as well! @jessreadsit if you want to check it out, we can be Booktube friends!
