A Book Lover's Diary

Rating:
Summary: Best looking, and also very useful
Review: For my purposes (described in an earlier review) this is probably the most satisfactory book journal. The other book diary BookNotes was the best as a gift to a young child, in my opinion, even though it was not quite what I wanted.

I wanted a place to record all the books I read by subject, by title and by author. This has that. I wanted a journal where I could jot brief notes about books. This has that as well.
This is not however the place to go if you want to write long detailed notes about each book (for that, I would recommend a separate blank journal). Rather, use this journal as a way to record what you read and when you read. If you have highly specialized reading tastes, some of the sections might seem extraneous, but the beauty of this journal (apart from its looks) is that it allows you to customize as you please.

I think I am keeping this one for myself. One caveat - I wish that this book had a bookmark (marker) included. But I can easily stick one in myself.

Summary: Great Book for Records
Review: I found "A Book Lover's Diary" to be a great place for keeping track of books you want to own, book club meetings and book records. It's very nicely formatted with great qoutes on books in between records. It made it a lot easier for me to remember books that I would like to read/buy later on. If you're a forgetful person like I am, this "diary" would definitely help.

Summary: EXCELLENT
Review: I just bought my second "book lover's diary." Best way to keep a list of the books I own and want. And lots of space to record what I've read. I read about 8 books a month and there was plenty of room. My only complaint would be to note that there is very little space (about two lines) to write your thoughts on each book. That's very rarely enough space for decent notes.
But otherwise, this book is the best thing of its kind that I've found so far.

Summary: A book I wanted but wouldn't buy for myself
Review: My sister gave this book to me for my birthday. I've quite often thought about recording all book interests but had never done it. I love this little gem. Now I can treasure what I've read and plan to read. I keep it by my bed. Thanks, Sis

Summary: A wonderful gift for book lovers! I love it !
Review: My sister ordered this book for me for my birthday. I was so excited when I opened the package and found the wonderful pages to document my reading, copy favorite quotes, list books I loved as a child (and still do), keep track of books I want to read, and more. This simple organizer is lovely! It has numerous wonderful quotes about books and reading from various sources. I took several evenings to browse through it thoroughly. I still enjoy just looking at it. The paper is of a very high quality. The colors are minimal to prevent competition with the reader's entries. If you love reading, get your hands on this little gem to store all your favorite memories of books!

Summary: A must have for all book lovers!!!
Review: This book can be loved by anybody, any age (I'm 13) I've seen other book journals and diaries, but this one is by far the best. It has a place for you to record everything from books you want to read, books recieved as gifts, and books borrowed, to quotes on the pages about books, and a place to record your favorite passages from books. whether for yourself or a friend, this diary is sure to be loved by all.

Summary: Don't read this book by its cover
Review: This is an excellent item for a booklover to have, as detailed by other reviewers. Be careful, though-- The book is not the lucious item, with embossed title, ribbon closing, and included bookmark, that is suggested by the photo. The "photo" is actually the artwork on the cover of the real book, which is bound blank-book style.
