Book Club Journal

If you know my story so far, you’ll know that I’ve been page-travelling for many years.

Then, I set up Nomad Book Club and wanted a journal to record the books I read for each country. After designing a travel-themed reading journal, I realised I need a reading-themed travel journal, but then… what about all the other books I read that aren’t actually travel-related?

So, I decided to create this reading journal, specially designed for book clubs, whether you’re a member of one right now or thinking of starting your own…

Thoughtfully structured for real book club needs, this journal goes far beyond simple note-taking. Inside, you’ll find the following sections:

  • Reading Wishlist to capture future picks
  • Two Yearly Calendars with a Daily Reading Tracker to stay on pace, and a Year Roundup to highlight your favourite reads.
  • A dedicated Reading Log & Index helps you track what you’re currently reading, paired with corresponding book review pages for easy reference.
  • 80 double-spread Book Review pages, designed with space for ratings, reflections, and—most importantly—book club meeting notes and discussion points. You’ll never forget a powerful quote, a controversial moment, or a great group insight again.
  • In the back, an exclusive resource section offers suggested book club reads, discussion questions, activities, games, and practical guidance on starting or running a successful book club.

“This Journal Has Been Perfect”

I joined a book club for the first time and wanted something to help me keep things organized, and this journal has been perfect. It has space to track books I want to read, books I’ve finished, ratings, notes, quotes, and thoughts from the book club meetings.

“Relaxing Pastel Colors”

A beautifully designed journal in relaxing, pastel colors, to track your yearly reading. The template pages include (among others) a reading wishlist, a yearly log to track titles, authors, and personal ratings, and many pages dedicated to already-read books, with enough space for a short book review and other information. A great help for everyone who loves keeping track of what they've read.

“Total Game-Changer for My Reading Life”

This journal is a total game-changer for my reading life! It is beautifully structured, moving far beyond a simple log to include thoughtful discussion prompts and meeting notes that are perfect for my book club. I love the yearly trackers and the "Wishlist" section—it keeps everything so organized and elegant. It’s the perfect keepsake for any reader and makes a wonderful gift for fellow book club members!
