reading journal
Jan. 10th, 2026 02:17 pmI'm back.
As part of spending a chunk of last year reconsidering how I use technology and shifting parts of my life back to analog, I decided to start a paper reading journal. Figured I'd show it off here in case anyone is interested.
Cover:
Lots of stickers because I have amassed a collection and I am trying to be better about using them rather than hoarding them in an envelope.

Interior page (moar stickers!):

Table of contents:
The page numbers are out of order because I was originally doing one book entry per page but that left a lot of empty space so I decided to do two book entries per page and went back to fill in open page space.

Two interior entries:
I'm just realizing I never filled in the completed date on one of them. Oops. Went and fixed that.
I'm in a bit of a reading lull so I haven't updated the two books I'm supposed to be actively reading lately, but hopefully I will return to them soon.
