In this video I’m setting up my 2026 reading journal from scratch—think cozy, practical, and still very cute. I walk you through the spreads I actually use all year, like yearly trackers, my series log, and a few bookish challenges that keep reading fun (without making it feel like homework). If you’re the kind of person who loves a fresh notebook moment, this is your sign to grab a cozy drink, pull out your washi tape, and make it a whole little ritual. I also share the supplies that make journaling feel easy and satisfying—my favorite pens for clean lines, highlighters for soft color, and the little tools that help everything look polished (like rounding corners and trimming paper neatly). And if you want to recreate any of the layouts, I made a Pinterest board so you can save the spreads and use them as inspo while you set up your own. The goal is simple: a reading journal that keeps you organized, motivated, and romanticizing adulthood one chapter at a time.
