You are reading: Bullet journal books to read template
my friend kate from my sweet home life is starting her bullet journaling journey this year. I’m so excited for her!
She’s a book lover and wanted some bullet journal book tracker inspiration to keep track of her reading this year.
I loved the idea of having a page to collect my reading journal ideas, so I decided to do this spread. I’ve added step-by-step instructions so anyone looking for a reading log journal template can follow the easy steps.
Keep reading to find out how to make a similar book bullet journal in your own notebook.
and if you don’t feel like doing it yourself, I have the bullet journal books to read printables at the end of the post just for you.

This is a very simple extension to make and you hardly need any other tools besides the ones you already have at home.
To make this a reader bullet journal, I used my favorite black drawing marker: the sakura pigma micron.
You don’t necessarily need a drawing pen for this page, but my plan is to color the books once I’ve read them so that by the end of the year I have a very colorful spread.
sakura pigma micron is a great option if you decide to color your sheets because they use archival ink that is fully waterproof. this means that the black ink will not smear when you use a colored marker on the watercolor.
I like this brand especially because you can have a professional drawing pen at an affordable price. I highly recommend these pens, they are some of my favorite journaling pens of all time.
If you want to color your “books I’ve read” to print or draw, check out the post below for our favorite pens.

I always wanted to make a bullet journal bookshelf style page and that’s what I decided to do in the end.
We will start with the creation of the blocks that will be our shelves. I made the blocks 9 grids tall and used the entire length of my a5 notebook; you may need to adjust this setting if your notebook is a different size.

I made a total of 3 blocks and a large rectangle around it to create the shelf shape.

Next, it was time to add the books.
I followed this step-by-step tutorial on how to make books stand up.
all the books on the first shelf are very well organized.
I just made sure the book was big enough so I could write the name of the book in small letters inside the space.
see how easy it is to make the books stand up. First, add your straight lines.
now make the top and bottom of the books with a slightly curved design.
then add some details to the books. you’re done with your first shelf!

You could repeat the exact same style on the next shelf, but I wanted to make it a little different by adding a book that wasn’t quite straight.
so again I started with the lines, but in this case, they weren’t all parallel.
now just finish the books by adding the lines at the top and bottom of the books plus the little details.
And for the last shelf, I added some books lying down. this is how it turned out:

I wanted to name this spread in my diary as “books I’ve read this year“, but there wasn’t enough space at the top, so I chose “books to read “.but you could also use subheadings like “book reading journal track” or “bullet journal book club”.
so here is my design. Any book lover could use this reading journal log!
