I love the mason jar stamp! Thinking of starting a reading journal of my own-I am already an avid reader and I want to keep better track of what I’ve read and what I thought about it :)
The mason jar stamp is one of my best finds☺️ You should start one! It’s very fun :D
I have so many favorite books. The one that comes to mind first is The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll have to look into that one ☺️🤍
I’m reading that right now !!!
Definitely starting a reading journal this year, and love the inspiration from this! Your journaling and setup skills are amazing and I really enjoyed this video! Thank you for making it :)
Aww you are so sweet! Thank you, you made my day! ☺️🤍
@@HannahDrydenMusic Oh my gosh, and you've made mine by replying! Thank you! I'm so looking forward to sitting down with a cuppa and watching your videos, instantly subscribed once I got to the end of this one :)
Hi Hannah, I was searching for how to start a reading journal and your video popped up. Your take on it is so easy, something i could definitely do , after being overwhelmed with so many ideas on pinterest etc.
Its so simple yet effective and your journal is just so beautiful. I hope you have read quite a number of books by now. Thank you for the inspiration ❤
I know this is an old video, but I really enjoyed it! I’m trying to set up my first reading journal and you popped up in my ‘recommendations’. Thank you.
I really like the pictures and the craft paper and how they warmed everything up, making it a cozy place. I would add some browns and grays too- but this is nice already.
Thank you so much!! Yes, some browns and greys would look lovely, good suggestion ;) Thank you for commenting!☺️🤍
creating a new journal is so scary! this video was peaceful and reminded me its meant to be fun - thank you
I got so many ideas from this video. I just got a Game of Thrones notebook for my birthday and I can't wait to turn it into a reading journal.
Thanks so much! I love the simplicity of your spreads. Can you please do a video on how you print the book covers? I’m a bit technically challenged... 😳
Thank you! I will definitely explain in the future how I print the book covers! Stay tuned :)☺️🤍
@@HannahDrydenMusic I can’t wait! Thank you.
Yes I would love this too!!
This honestly makes me want to get back into reading again
You should!! It’s so fun to escape into a good book ☺️🤍
I've a reader's block for the past three years (starting with the pandemics). After starting a reading journal I have read 600 pages since the beginning of August 2023 (today it's August 28th).
this is so stunning it deserves way more views!!!
Aww, thank you so much🤍;D
Wow. Amazing work and lots of cool ideas. ❤
Anybody else being reminded of The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern because of the bee?
yes!!! that was the first thing I thought when I saw it :)
Yes I love that book!
I love the idea of using the stamps for the titles instead of writing. I have sucky handwriting but I wanted to make my journal look nice and pretty!! I’m definitely using that trick when I make mine!! Thank you!! Also you made a beautiful journal!
Love the idea to add visual pictures in between spreads. So motivating!
I’ve always kept track of the books I’ve read, but this is so great to have it nicely laid out. My favorite book is The Nightingale by Kristen Hannah. I couldn’t put it down. I hope you will read it some day.
I will look into that! Thank you for the recommendations!!
Thanks for the inspiration! I literally bought my journal yesterday. Bought washi tape and stickers today.
I'm currently reading The Reading List. It will be a new favorite, more than 5 🌟 if I could.
I love your journal! And I actually do feel a bit inspired. But I feel like I should probably finish my Happy Planner bookish planner, and/or use one of the several reading journals I already own... Maybe... 😅
Haha, yeah! If you need a change of pace to keep up with it, just turn the page and “redo” it! Set it up a different way that makes you excited, and it will probably help with your motivation to continue it! Good luck☺️🤍
It came out so so pretty!
All these reading journal youtube videos is making me want to start a physical one of my own.
I love this! Been wanting to start a reading journal. Currently trying to read thru outlander series... the show had me hooked lol
I also really love the key idea! Thanks for the inspiration! Where did you get the alpha stamps? So cute 😍
I’ll have to look into the Outlander series! Thanks for the recommendation! I got the stamps from amazon! The link is somewhere here in the comments :)🤍
Lovely! Trying to remain consistent with mine. I've sort of had one for a while but never really used it.
I’m so excited to try one!☺️
This is my first time on your channel.. I love the idea and I'm starting my own reading journal! Definitely subscribing! Your voice is so pleasant to hear! 💕💕
Aww, you are so lovely!! Thank you so much :’)🤍
Your voice, spread, and music were soothing and a pleasure to watch. I loved your doodles.
Aww thank you so much!! ☺️🤍
What a cool, relaxing and enjoyable video. You are so creative and your spreads are beautiful. Hope you get to read lots of books that you really love!
You are so sweet! Thank you very much☺️🤍
I rarely comment on videos, but wow I am obsessed with this and instantly subscribed. Also, I am currently reading the Throne of Glass series :)
Aww, thank you so much lovely!! I will have to look into that series! It looks interesting☺️😚
Best series I read this year !
Awesome! Keep it up! Good luck for the reading journal! Loving this cozymas so far! 🌸🌸😻
Thank you!!☺️ So so glad you like it🥺
I keep watching this I’m obsessed! I will try this in the new year x
It was so fun to make😌 xx
This was absolutely LOVELY, from each page decorated to each chosen photo & poem. Love the typeface stamps also! Well done! (I just keep my books read on a spreadsheet w/title, author & rating) LOL. As I read approx. 250 books per year, it would take me forever to create a reading journal, but LOVED this!
I absolutely loved this set up. You have inspired me. Thank you.
Aww, of course! 🤍;)
Lovely blank journal and so enhanced by your additions! Love the idea of a reading journal. TFS the inspiration!
Thank you so much!🥰
When you watch a video to get ideas for your spreads and you realise that she's reading the series you just finished ... 😂😂
Lolll😂
My favorite book is either fish in a tree or out of my mind, and my favorite series is the city of ember
I love both of those books so muchhh! My favorite is definitely out of my mind though.
Lovely recommendations! Thank you!☺️
@@mendelyn8271 yeah i think i might have ti agree🤔🥰
One of my favorite book journal set up! 🥺🤍
Aww, thank you!!☺️🤍
I love this setup for a reading journal! Especially the quotes and the pictures! Those are awesome! Where did you find the pictures and the library card?
hello :)
I found the pictures on pinterest, and printed the book covers from google! the library card i got in a vintage paper card stack from my craft store.
thank you so much for watching and commenting, i'm so glad you enjoyed!
I just started using a B6 stalogy this year and it has become my favorite size. Not too big not too small.
Yes! I am beginning to love the larger B5 size as well :)☺️
Beautiful journal you've created here. Looking forward to more videos. Off to create my own journal, thank you. My favorite book changes frequently :) .
Thank you so much! Good luck with your journal as well! Let me know how it goes :)🤍
I love it!
Favorite books of 2020: Surrender Your Sons by Adam Sass, The Grace Year, Wilder Girls, Fable, Into The Drowning Deep, and lastly, Legendborn! Happy reading.
Thank you so much for the recommendations!! ☺️🤍
Thank you for the idea on how to setup my book and I will be buying those cute letter stamps!
Yes they are amazing!! Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 🤍
I did a similar ordering mishap! I meant to get a B5 and got an A5. They’re so pretty though! I ended up just using 1 A5 as my planner bullet journal, and my other is my reading journal. I’m just happy someone else made a similar mistake - it makes me feel less goofy.
haha! i totally get that!! A5 is still a good size, but i find for my busy life i really enjoy the larger notebooks. 🤗🤍 and dont worry, im sure many similar mistakes will occur in the future haha 😂
I was casually updating my own reading journal and I heard you talk about delirium and was in shock, I love the trilogy and I haven't heard anyone speak about at all. I was so excited lol
I just finished the whole series a few days ago, I really enjoyed it!! I am going to post a reading journal entries video soon for January🤍
Thank you for the inspiration! I've read that series too ✨ it's a good dytopsian series that keeps you wondering what happens next. Enjoy ✨
Yes! I’m about to finish Pandemonium, so so good! Thank you for the comment :)☺️🤍
@@HannahDrydenMusic no problem ✨glad I found your channel

I ordered a blackout archer & olive but definitely want to do a reading/tv shows/movies tracker.
A blackout spread would be so cool!☺️
Love this journal! Gave me some great ideas!

I love this. Great idea.
My fav is Harry Potter! Love this book serie.
I am currently reading Harry Potter! Halfway through the 6th book!
I really love your journal! The colours match so perfectly. The only thing I noticed is that you stamp the Ls the wrong way around.
Thank you so much!! And yes, many people have also noticed that and let me know! This was my first time using the L in my stamp collection, so I really wasn’t sure 😂 Thank you for the comment! Glad you enjoyed☺️🤍
Thank you for the inspiration for reading journal spreads. I love the simplicity of your pages-so beautiful! I've recently decided to create my own reading journal.
Thanks for creating this type of content.
Book recommendation: The Reading List by Sara Nisha Adams. 🙂

Book - Stillness is the key

What did you use to paste the craft papers in there? It looks like tape but I am not sure.
Is it just me or do you think in a year or so she'll be one of the big journaling CZcams's like Amandarachlee. I aspire to be just as good as u in journaling of all kind.

I have three new favorites: Crime & Punishment, Oliver Twist, and Wuthering Heights. What are yours?
Thank you! I’ll have to look into those! Right now I’m on the sixth book of Harry Potter *for the first time*, and I love it! I also love Jessica Khoury’s books. “Origin”, “Vitro”, and “Kalahari” are some of my favorite books of all time, all by her :)🤍
Hi. I’m a new subscriber and new to the idea of a reading journal. I enjoyed watching set yours up. What kind of pen were you using when you were drawing the book shelves? I love the fine tip. TFS.

"Grapes of Wrath" by John Steinbeck.
Love it
☺️
My books have really long titles. How do you get them to fit in those tiny boxes?
Good question! I usually abbreviate them by just putting the first letter of each word, or by using keywords that I’ll remember from that book. For example, if it is the Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglas, i would put “Narrative of FD” or something similar ☺️
I saw someone number the books and then had a master list next to the shelf
Where did you get the book photos? They are absolutely gorgeous!
I searched “vintage books” on Pinterest! ☺️
Where did you find your mason jar stamp?
I found it at my nearest craft store! For me in the states it was a Hobby Lobby🤍
Where did you get your prints from?
The pictures I got from Pinterest☺️🤍
@@HannahDrydenMusic they are beautiful!

I adore Atticus
Me as well!! His poetry is so beautiful🤍
Where did you get the library card from that you used as your title page !!?
i got it at my local craft store! it was a hidden gem find ☺️🤍
