    Book Journal

    in General Book Discussions

    Posted

    A couple of years ago I bought a book journal from Paperchase. It had a section for book reviews, books to read and books borrowed / lent. However it only had space for 60 books so if you read a lot you would have to buy two.

     

    Last year I had to use a notebook, but again there wasn't enough pages and I had to use post - it notes on the backs of some pages. This year I'm again using a notebook as I couldn't find the book journal in Paperchase although I did spot one in Waterstones but it was a bit too small for me.
