Customer Reviews

Good book, better than most

I like the book and the layout. It's simple and has space for store numbers, addresses, book club stuff if you're into that and lots of space, alphabetically, for books. Really my only complaint is that there isn't more room for notes for each book. You can fit lots of titles but are better off keeping only brief notes or questions in the journal and longer notes perhaps tucked inside on a separate sheet of paper... of course that means you're taking notes and if not then it's a great solution! Again, good format, clean, simple appearance. I like it much better than most I've seen because it is more than just a lined journal. It's nicely organized and intuitive.

A great way to record titles by genre

What I like about this book (the best, in my view of the three titles I bought recently) is that it allows me both to keep a list of books I want to read by author (I love particular authors) and by subject. What is more is that the books can be entered alphabetically by author - a book to those of thus who remember the author better than the title.On the minus side, there is that pesky section on reading groups that I really don't need. And I could wish that this title came in a spiral version which would make it easier to lay flat, or that there was a way to index all the titles I read at the back of the book (at present I would be limited to indexing the books by author) either by title or by the order in which I read them. I am rating this a 4.5 simply because of some minor inconveniences. On the other hand, it is nicely presented (even if a paperback) and it is the most suitable for a young reader. A children's version of this would be great (with illustrations picked from children's classics, or more color to the illustration, and slightly larger print).To be honest, my ideal reader's diary would be a bit more like a Day-Planner, which would allow me to stuff up the diary in the two or three sections that I use most. But for my purposes, this BookNotes is the best value and the most satisfactory.

Very useful

I've only had a chanced to browse this "book" and it seems to be one that can be very valuable over the years as another reviewer notes. I'm ordering mine today! Go to your local bookstore and check it out. It will make a lot more sense then. But...buy it here otherwise these folks will not post this review.

A great way to organize what you read!

This little notebook, has been invaluable for helping me remember what I have read. I've used it for over four years, and have filled it up so that I need another. With spaces to write author, title, date read, referred by, and notes readers can check back to see what books they might have read by a certain author, as it is arranged in alphabetical order. Spiced with frequent quotes by readers and writers, it is a must for any true biblioholic.
