January Manga Reset | TBR, Spreadsheet, Reading Journal, & Organization

[@tonireadsmanga]

I say this every time, but just to be clear: I didn’t create this spreadsheet. It was created by HardbackHoarder. More info is in the description.

TBR Jar appearance! Internally I was thinking that it can't be a reset until we see it at least once! LOL! This was really fun to watch! I admire how you use that one spreadsheet because WOW! I felt overwhelmed just looking at it! LOL! Seems like a super fun way to look at stats later in the year though! Also YAY for sneak peek at your journal! Fun video!

And this was the spreadsheet after I had already removed quite a few things lol. I probably won’t end up using everything for the entire year but I want to give it a try for now.

I’m definitely going to try to keep up with a reading journal. I totally feel that in the past I would give up on it once I messed up on decorating it. I like your thought on keeping it simple really enjoyed the organization part of this video! Great video!

[@tonireadsmanga]

I actually use my journal a lot more now that I don’t care what it looks like lol

Really enjoyed this! That tracker looks great. I'm definitely making things more complicated for myself this year with my trackers but I think I'll get the more specific information I'm looking for on my reading. I too like a written notebook for my reads and I don't decorate it at all. I'm just not creative that way. It's for information purposes only. I tried to use Notion last year thinking that it would be easier for me to remember to record things since I'm on the computer a lot, but that didn't work out well for me at all. It's much easier just to write it down. Looks like you're off to a great start for the year!

Thanks for watching!

I really enjoy watching your reset videos! When I do my personal journals, I don’t decorate them and I keep them pretty minimal. My handwriting isn’t very pretty either. I’ll say, when I tried an anime/manga journaling challenge last year where you have to do them for 30 days straight. I couldn’t do it. 😝 As much as I love journaling and decorating them, I’ll admit it was hard. 🙈 It would be cool if you did a video of your past reading journals. I also used spiral notebooks! I find it cool how you use your spreadsheet for your manga reading! I’m still learning how to use Notion more for my manga reading habits.

Thanks! I actually use the journal a lot more now that I don’t have to worry about decorating it or keeping it organized. I can just write whatever random stuff I think of and have fun with it lol

I see you have the His Dark Materials books on your TBR. I highly recommend them they are one of my favorite book series of all time. The movie and TV adaptations were ok but nowhere near the level of the books.

[@tonireadsmanga]

That’s definitely one I’m hoping to get to this year

*Pausing to read your TBR lists, purely cuz I'm nosey.... 😮 You haven't already read Watership Down? I'm surprised since it's so iconic. Huh, I see, nice, nice...Looks 👍🏻 so good luck!

[@tonireadsmanga]

Nope, not yet. I’ve had it on my tbr since 2019 but I keep forgetting about it. Maybe I should write down 10 novels I have to read in 2024 in addition to my 10 manga. Eventually this journal is just going to be full of random lists lol
