Occasionally, I find it challenging to focus on and complete a novel. I love to read, but between parenting, work, and housekeeping, I always seem to find a reason to put down the book and do something else.
One way I’ve learned to overcome a reading slump is to choose a few books, create a TBR (To-Be-Read) list, and find a fun way to motivate myself to read. For me, writing down the titles and coloring them in once I’ve finished gives me just enough motivation and incentive to end a slump.
Reading trackers always seem to provide the joy not only of finishing a book, but also having a way to mark the occasion. These beautiful trackers can help you plan your next read (or even your next year’s worth of reads). The planners will also help you to keep track of the titles you loved, DNF’d (Did Not Finish), or those that fell somewhere in the middle.
What’s Included?
This tracker contains 70 pages. Pages include:
- Reading Log – An organizer to keep track of how many minutes you’ve read each day and the page numbers that you read.
- Reading Wishlist- A place to keep the TBR books, books that you want to purchase or get from the library.
- Finished Books- To track your completed books by month or year! Don’t forget to celebrate your progress.
- Book Review Page- A great way to summarize and remember what you’ve read. A good resource for recommendations to a friend.
- Yearly Reading Goals- Set a new goal at the start of the new year, and plan which books you will read each month.
- Calendar covering 12 months of reading- The perfect place to plan future reads to help meet your reading goal.
Some are more visual, others allow space to leave a review or rank the book. I enjoy writing down a sentence or two to remind myself about a plot, or a beloved (or hated) character. The variety of planners in this bundle will cater to every type of reader and organizational style in your household.
Sample Pages and How to Use Them:
This planner is a drawing of a beautiful bookshelf. With this planner, I will write the title of a book I want to read, sometimes several at a time, and when I finish, I will color-code the book according to my review.
If I love it, I color the spine in purple (my favorite color); if I dislike it, I use blue. This visual is a quick way to see what I’ve accomplished.
The Kind of Reader Who’ll Love This Planner
These trackers are also great for young readers; they can keep track of their summer reads, write book reviews to remember better what they’ve read, and showcase their creativity while building goal-setting and organizational skills.
