Reading Journal for reMarkable

The Reading Journal for reMarkable is an undated digital reading journal: a hyperlinked PDF for everything you read in a year, with a goal of up to 100 books, a page for each one, your favourite quotes and a look back at the end.

It is a book tracker and reading tracker in one: log what you want to read, what you are reading and what you thought of it, without juggling a separate book log template.

What is inside the reading journal

• Reading goal. Set your target and list up to 100 books. Each number opens that book’s page.
• 100 book pages. Title, author, genre, start and finish dates, pages, format, a rating from 1 to 5, notes, and a line worth keeping.
• 8 to-read pages with a box to tick when you get the book.
• 12 pages of favourite quotes with the book and page for each.
• Series tracker. Two pages for each series, its author and how far you have read.
• Reading challenge. 24 prompts, from a book in translation to one you would never usually pick.
• Year in books. Books and pages each month, your book of the year, and what you want to read next.
• 10 lined pages for reading notes.

That comes to about 140 pages in one file, with a contents page, an index for the book log and a breadcrumb on every page.

How it works

Open the contents page and tap a section. On the reading goal page, tap a book’s number to jump to its page, and use the breadcrumb at the top of any page to go back. The PDF also has bookmarks for each section.

Import it with the reMarkable app on your computer or phone, or at my.remarkable.com, and it syncs to your tablet. Open it and write on any page. Our step-by-step guide covers each route.

Nothing is dated, so you can start any time of year.
