Every time the thread count of sheets is mentioned in a book I remember that I should really go and treat myself to some nice sheets. I wanna be the fancy, put together person described in books with high thread count sheets lol

Hi everyone! Recently, due to so many discussions about reading journals in the club here, I was tempted to start a reading journal. Before, I'd never really committed to one, as I'm not really the type of person to coherently write something every day or even month - and I might for sure not write something about every book I read.

But the discussions here sparked my interest so much and made me think how a reading journal that I'd actually use would look like - and in the end I got a journal and some matching markers and pens today!

Some things that I will include are:

• Cover of every book i read in 2026
• Best book of the year
• PB badges and challenges I'm working on - I'll insert a photo if I figure out how to do that!
• A page for 5 new countries for Read around the World
• monthly wrap ups and a cover page for each month

I decided everything else will be optional - meaning I can write 5 pages or nothing about a book, everything else will be too much pressure. I realized I really enjoy the art part of a journal and writing only if I'm in the mood for it. So a huge shoutout to everyone that encouraged me on here, it's been a pleasure and I'm super excited for my first ever book journal! Setting it up has already started to be so much fun ^^

Btw - this is the first page of my Quests layout!!! (hope the markdown works lol) - Edit: the link is working!! Journal pls ignore that the number XI is double - my brain had a little glitch lol

Hello Bounders and Boundlings!

I have been enjoying this site a lot this year, have loved having discussions on here, and tried out a lot of new books that I otherwise would not have found! My love for this site must have been clear to others in my life because I got given a Page Bound sweatshirt for Christmas!! So thanks to everyone, I’m so excited for the new year & the new reads with this community!
