2024 Reading Journal Flip Through 💜 feat.

[@Monica.Bibliophilebynight]

YAY! Thank you for featuring my journal for 2024 💜This is definitely becoming a tradition now...and I also love watching you figure out how/why I've done stuff lol you do the best flip throughs! ALSO sneaky clips of Aus. Can't wait to see what trips we do in 2025!

[@JashiiCorrin]

Heck yes for 2025 trips 🥳 Too dang excited! Thanks as always for letting me share your journal with the team 😄 We all love seeing your creativity and consistency 👏 As said, definite reading journal goals 💜

[@bellsj69]

You're amazing with the amount you read.

[@Chaotic_Pixie]

@@Monica.Bibliophilebynight YOUR HANDWRITING!!! Jess isn’t the only one with cuteness aggression over it. PLEASE 🙏 work with a typeface designer to turn your handwriting into a font set! It’s legit a thing that you can do! I watched a whole documentary about an artist who did it. You have such amazing handwriting… and goodness me your reading journal. Total goals. The whole package. 100/10 🧑‍🍳🤌

[@sentient.ball.of.stardust]

Your creativity is awe inspiring!

[@mamahnita]

OMG Monica you go girl.

[@teresaroubal7237]

Monica needs to start posting videos of her doing this it’s beautiful, I’m taking notes like I do with all reading journal channels

[@Shaegeeksout]

I would be a subscriber for sure!

[@JashiiCorrin]

Haha it'd be great if she had her own channel 💜 For now though, at least we have her IG pictures throughout the year 💪

[@EFergDindrane]

@@JashiiCorrin I'd love it, too, but she'd have less time to read! Editing videos takes soooo loooonnng.

[@RoundSeal]

Thank you to Monica for allowing you to share her journal with us! This was an absolute treat, all of those stats had me nearly drooling 💜 I love that the layouts are much more simple than they look at first glance - the perfect balance between efficiency and decor. So lovely!

[@JashiiCorrin]

I agree! 💜 I love how they look when finished, and at a glance it could certainly seem a bit too complicated for a beginner skill-level, but I think that when broken down into their elements, they're really approachable 💪

[@BooksByDano]

One of my most anticipated videos of the year!!!

[@JashiiCorrin]

It's always a standout, haha 💜👏

[@BooksByDano]

@@JashiiCorrin Just need to steal her handwriting

[@meganellis5479]

these bibliophilebynight flip throughs are some of my favorite videos of the year!

[@JashiiCorrin]

They're definitely a standout 👌💜

[@VeganOrganizer]

Same!

[@KellyAK]

Forever obsessed by Monica's journal! I'm in a square journal this year 100% because of her, and my new monthly dashboard set ups are absolutely inspired by her layouts ❤❤

[@JashiiCorrin]

Oh awesome! 💜 I love that square journals get the love they deserve in the reading community 😄

[@finecallmejane]

This was so fun to watch/listen to because there's something so lovely about someone getting to admire another person's reading adventures. It's so sweet.

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad you enjoyed it! 💜 I always love getting to show off her journals; she does such a good job! 😄

[@azulolympia]

0:01 AHHHH THE VIDEO IVE BEEN WAITING FOR!! thank you monica for letting us see your journal, i’ve based my new rejo on yours bc i love it 🤩

[@JashiiCorrin]

Haha 💜 Hope you enjoyed it! 😄

[@justynajusty]

It's awesome that your friends let you share their reading journals. It's sweet and helps with ideas and themes ideas. Thank you all for sharing.

[@JournalABook]

I love Monica's journal. It's a piece of art. I follow her on IG and I've been always curious about what else she recorded in her journal. Thank you for sharing!

[@rebeccagwin93]

Her journal is absolutely beautiful! Definitely gave me some ideas for my own. This will be the first year I am doing a reading journal and I'm excited. I don't read nearly as many as Monica, but I still think it will be fun! Thanks for sharing her creativity with us

[@muddsmakes]

Monica’s handwriting is beautiful! Insanely jealous! Love seeing her work (and of course Jess journals too!)

[@JashiiCorrin]

I'm right there with you with the hand-writing envy 😝

[@cheeseisdelicious4627]

Monica is a champ. You can tell much love and much work goes into keeping this. And the writing style. I'm envious too :D

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad I'm not alone in the hand-writing envy 😝

[@brooke8642]

This is a video I have been waiting for since I saw the last of Monica's Reading Journal Flip Through. I also added this to my favourite video playlist, along with the others. I hope to see this year's reading journal as well.

[@JashiiCorrin]

Haha I love hearing that this video was anticipated! 💜 We'll definitely have a 2025 flip through 👌

[@VioletPhoenix922]

Wow, in one video I made it into both a Jess video and a Monica reading journal! All kinds of bucket list items being ticked off over here!! 😂😂🎉

[@JashiiCorrin]

Haha 😂 Part of ittttt 💜

[@VioletPhoenix922]

The clips from Sydney are cute! I’m missing my book crew!!

[@TJulieta]

8:50 I love seeing the BBBC and knowing that I read along 😊💜

[@helenedurly6028]

This reading journal is a work of art. Thank you Monica for sharing !!!

[@jenkrajewski5447]

Monica’s journal is beautiful, I love how she captures all the statistics and her layouts are simple but stunning.

[@JashiiCorrin]

Simple but stunning is a great way to explain it 👏 I love the small added complexity of the tip-ins, but overall it's a really approachable style that I love to share 😄

[@EFergDindrane]

Viva Monica!!! She's amazing, and so is her journal! It is so inspirational! I may try a square next year, because of her. I screenshot several of those pages, and I love getting book recommendations, too! I can't wait to see her 2025 setup!

[@imamansell]

This is my first year keeping a reading journal and I'm working on it now and feel like I started it a bit too late. However, this video is really inspiring my spread ideas and making it easier for me to put my first reading journal together. I know I'll tweak it as I use it throughout the year but this is such a great start for a newbie to journaling like me! Thank you for sharing this!

[@renfeldy]

38:06 “they bought books . . . I followed them around” haha such a mood and I love that 💖

[@JashiiCorrin]

I just got to enjoy being part of the party 😂 I eating a lot of matcha ice-cream, haha

[@munciemeg]

I went and followed Monica on instagram purely based on your vids of her journals. They’re gorgeous and inspiring and I could never 😂

[@JashiiCorrin]

I love her dedication to the craft 👏 Very inspiring! 💜

[@Amit-s5t2o]

Well I never thought that a separate journal can be used for reading. I like the concepts of using colour coding and maintaining stats. I am going to definitely use it from now on. Thanks for sharing.

[@happyplanner_jana]

Was hoping to see this video! Thanks to Monica and Jess!! ❤

[@JashiiCorrin]

Most welcome! She really did all the work 😂💜

[@happyplanner_jana]

@ but without you I wouldn’t be able to see her awesome work! 💜

[@heabooktubes]

One Dark Window was also my favorite of the year. ♥️

[@JashiiCorrin]

Good to know others vouch for it too! 😄💜

[@RyeMiArt]

Monica's journal is GOALS! 😍

[@JashiiCorrin]

100% agreed 👏

[@thelvamar]

Monica and you have inspired me to start a reading journal this year!

[@JashiiCorrin]

Aww yay! That's awesome to hear 😄💜

[@robyn_southafrica]

OMG this is amazing!! 🤩🤩🤍

[@TJulieta]

31:46 I actually went back and finished a book at the end of the year that I had originally DNF'd because I felt like reading, but I wanted to save my TBR reads for the next year 😂

[@marynuttall163]

I love the videos where you flip through her reading journals. I've started doing a few things in my own that she does. It's just so nice to look at hers. Please tell her thank you for letting you do these. They are so nice to look at. I come back to these videos often. 🙂💛👍🏻

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad you enjoy the flip throughs of Monica's journals! 💜 She's certainly inspired a lot in mine, so it's nice to show off her journal to others 😄

[@ChronicleV]

Wow this journal setup is such an inspiration. So wonderfully organized!

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad you liked it! 💜😄

[@romoplans]

I've been waiting for this! I took so much inspiration from her for my journal this year! Thank you for showcasing her reading journals!

[@JashiiCorrin]

Most welcome! Really she did most of the work 😂 I love her consistency in her reading journals 💜

[@priyacray]

Must be fate that I was commenting asking for this video in your previous lives and here you are! I love Monica's spreads.

[@JashiiCorrin]

Haha I just spotted your comment 😂 Great timing!

[@Ambient70]

Her handwriting is so neat that it almost looks like printed font. Beautiful!

[@JashiiCorrin]

It makes me super jealous 😂💜

[@ghanshyamsingh3653]

Woahhh…that journal is PERFECTION!!! I’m totally using most of em layouts 😜👍🤗🩵😽🩵

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad you liked it! 😄💜

[@Jen39x]

I’m awe struck at this much reading but it’s my season of life. I don’t think I ever read quite this much in a year’s time but at one point I would have been in the same ballpark. Wonderful ideas and I’m going to track my books in a journal this year. The book club I belong to tends towards classic literature and at the length of the books I’m not going to need many pages

[@Cordelia0704p]

I have to come back to this tomorrow. Monica’s journal is something to be fully enjoyed and unfortunately I have to go to bed :(

[@JashiiCorrin]

Hope you enjoy it when you get a chance to watch! 💜

[@katieodle7609]

I love Monica’s journals!! You two inspired me to start my own reading journal. Finished setting it up a few days ago. 😊

[@JashiiCorrin]

Oh awesome! 💜 I hope you're enjoying it so far 😄

[@ReignBeauxStar]

WOW, I was just looking for the reading journal videos last night because now I have to redo mine!

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad it was timely for you 😄

[@avalonkerr8332]

Super inspiring!

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad you liked it 😄💜

[@azulolympia]

ok i’ve finished the vid now - LOVE the journal, as usual, Monica 😍 please please let us see your 2025 rejo 🩷

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad you liked it! 💜 We'll for sure have a flip through of 2025 on the channel in Jan next year, but in the mean time, Monica posts still images over on her IG 😄

[@TouchstonesRanna]

I love these flip throughs.

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad you like them 💜😄

[@Proyectollamita]

I really love these flip Through!!

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad you enjoy them 🥳💜

[@lanuitbleue640]

Oooh!!! So pretty! I started a [very small] reading journal because of you guys. 2.5 books down so far this year 😂

[@JashiiCorrin]

Great work! I'm on 2.5 books too 😄💜

[@ScottKS14]

My favorite ways of making repetitive spreads is designing and printing on sticker paper! Really love this journal

[@JashiiCorrin]

Always great having those ways to make the setups faster and easier 👌

[@MarysInks]

I’m going to have to try the book matrix. I saw it in one of your other videos, but I didn’t exactly understand. I don’t think the popular book brackets gives a fair representation of the year’s best book. This would give a much better result. Thanks for explaining!

[@cleg78]

Wow I can’t get over how neat and perfect your journal is… Do you make journals to sell that are ready to go?

[@Stephanie0612]

Definitely going to rewatvh & take notes later! ❤

[@JashiiCorrin]

I added some ideas to my list from this one too 😂💜

[@kariikosmos3005]

Omg brilliant! Why have I not thought to literally just cut letters out with my cricut! I'm going to try this for March cause my February is already planned 🙌🙌

[@JashiiCorrin]

Niceee 💪 I'm hoping to learn how to do that this year myself 👏

[@Bookbonkers8439]

Monica has a stunning reading journal! Mine looks nothing like this! 😂

[@JashiiCorrin]

I always love looking through hers 👏 She does excellent work

[@michelleherald9619]

Love Monica's Journal!! Also, I found a new rating system, it is called READS and it is by Beth and Beyond on KZbin. It can be as simple as you want or as detailed as you need. I thought about your new rating system and wanted to share what was working for me.

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad that one is working for you! I've gone with my own system (called VIBES, lol) and am looking forward to using that 😄💜

[@michelleherald9619]

@JashiiCorrin I like your system too. I think rating systems are individual to the person.

[@SarahTM2TS]

I don't think I ever hit play so fast!

[@JashiiCorrin]

Haha 😂 Well it is the most anticipated video of the year, so fair 👏

[@MemphisJones]

This is so impressive 🎉

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad you liked it! 💜😄

[@gingertate5149]

It’s the cute stickers for me where does she get them?? I am behind if setting up my reading journal but reading journal videos inspire me and got me to sit down and work on my reading journal

[@sugarandhoneybujo]

her journal is such an inspo to mine

[@JashiiCorrin]

Saaaame 💜👏

[@TJulieta]

12:28 Janu-Berry 🍓🫐

[@JashiiCorrin]

😂 Perfection

[@Chaotic_Pixie]

Gosh I thoroughly enjoy these flip throughs. Monica genuinely needs to work with a typeface designer to turn her handwriting into a font set. She has such nice handwriting! It’s definitely a thing she could do!!!

[@JashiiCorrin]

I would use the ever-loving-heck out of that font 💜

[@Chaotic_Pixie]

@ I would actually pay for her handwriting as a font. I *never* pay for fonts. 100/10 understand your cuteness aggression. Monica’s handwriting is complete goals.

[@julia_l-c]

Pausing to add more books to my TBR..... 👀.

[@JashiiCorrin]

Haha very fair 😂

[@mechudoba]

Monica’s hand writing! 💕 What pen does she use?

[@jackslapcheer6852]

this is one of my favorite traditions.

[@JashiiCorrin]

It's our regular new year gift 😝💜

[@tkemp710]

It’s great to see reading journals. Loved this one so much 🥺 Question though: where do you all find books to put on your TBR lists?! I love reading but finding a series or even a new author I want to read is very difficult for me for some reason. I read lots of different genres but I can never seem to find many new books I want to read.

[@JashiiCorrin]

I personally rely a lot on recommendations, whether that's from my friends who read similar things to me, or from creators I see online 😊 I find general recommendations hard because I've got set genres and such that I actually like reading, so when I find people that give "good" (for me) suggestions, I tend to stick with them 😝

[@karamichelle6919]

Soooo neat! Definitely inspiring 😊 And I really love the use of tip-ins. Do you know...is the black pen like a .02 mm or something? Lol

[@JashiiCorrin]

She uses the 0.05 mm nib 👌 So smol 😝

[@amandalamartiniere8697]

What kind of printer does Monica use for all of the book covers?

[@JashiiCorrin]

She uses a HP DeskJet 3720 💜

[@TheCryptids-ys8ho]

do you know what pen she uses to write her reviews? i love the blue and how the ink sits on the pages!

[@Monica.Bibliophilebynight]

I use a lamy fountain pen with a 1.1 calligraphy nib 🙂

[@melindalee7845]

Thanks Monica for sharing your reading journal. I read a lot of books but would find it hard to keep up with a journal. I do have a recommendation for you. My Commander by Alanea Alder.

[@kdscolley]

I’m curious about her star rating stickers. Some of them have a 2 above but a 5 in the star. Do we know what that means for her rating, or is that just something for her own tracking? I’m trying the CAWPILE method this year and seeing if that rating works, but I’m always interested in how others rate their books.

[@JashiiCorrin]

If there's a 5 in the star, it's a "point 5", e.g. 2.5 star rating 🤙

[@kdscolley]

@ ooooh! That’s so clever! Thank you!

[@hibiscus_fieldshellen]

Please where are those stickers in the beginning from, they're giving me cuteness aggression, jess said paper shy? or am I wrong

[@JashiiCorrin]

Paper Shire 😄💜 (might be one word 🤔)

[@hibiscus_fieldshellen]

@@JashiiCorrin thank you very much for the heart and the reply!! I love your videos

[@ShikiPirs]

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeah

[@JashiiCorrin]

🥳

[@zarifahsvlogmalaysia7854]

Yeah, i think i am going to steal monica's book battle idea😈😈 just kidding😂😂😂

[@JashiiCorrin]

Bloody book battle 😂 I cannot! 😝

[@janetkenyon4755]

Why are you showing her journal? Sorry I probably missed a lot.

[@JashiiCorrin]

Because she lets me 😂 And because it's always nice to showcase other examples of how one could set up and use a reading journal 👌

[@EleiyaUmei]

These reading journal videos convinced me to never care about bujo influencers' book tastes because phewww, they're so different from mine... But this journal is pretty! I like the idea of a Bookémon Readathon but the execution here is too off from the Pokémon games for me.

[@JashiiCorrin]

I'm not sure how the Bookemon Readathon worked, but I believe all the graphics used came from the creator who released the challenge if that helps 😊

[@EleiyaUmei]

@@JashiiCorrin Thanks! I might look it up 😊

[@ChrisReadsalot]

Jashi, one thing you can do is get some clear sticker paper and print out the book titles for your little bookshelf in a small font. That's what I do because my handwriting leaves a lot to be desired, mostly because my hand shakes. So I worked out just printout the books on the sheets when I am printing out book covers. :) @Monica.Bibliophilebynight yet another year of journaling that I adore! You do such a great job! I have to admit that for 2025, I have stolen some of your ideas and added to them! Keep up the good work and I'll see you in BBBC!
