Creator's Key Takeaways

I tried really, really hard to use only a few supplies. The only things I bought were roll of stickers, a pack of paper.

I went on a cruise so I brought my 10 books with me and I read them on my cruise. It was great. I loved it and it cleared those books physically off my TBR.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use a traveler's notebook for flexibility in designing reading journal spreads.
Limit supplies to a few key items to maintain a cohesive vibe.
Cut Dutch drawers carefully to avoid damaging corresponding pages in the notebook.
