A Blank Journal with a Literary Theme

This blank journal is meant for journaling about books read. It has literary quotes and beautiful reproductions of paintings depicting women reading. It is refreshing to have a blank book journal as so many of the others are organized in specific ways which may or may not suit an individual. I have filled up two of these journals and enjoy the art, the ability to use as much (or as little) space as I want to write about each book.

Loved "The Reading Woman"

I picked up "The Reading Woman" in a museum gift shop and have loved owning it. I use it as a journal of the books I've read in the past and what I'm currently reading. It's amazing how quickly you forget a books you've read, so I enjoy writing my thoughts right after I finish one. The illustrations are lovely, some of them paintings from other centuries. Women have made time for reading FOREVER. Now that I've filled this journal completely, does anyone know of a similar one I can start?

A beautiful way to organize your books and reading!

This is a beautiful journal for women who love books and reading. This lovely volume is organized for the books you've read, books you want to read, books you've loaned out, and more. What sets this jewel apart from other book journals are the lovely prints of paintings depicting women in various situations, simply enjoying reading. No cooking, caring for children, cleaning, teaching, nursing, etc. Just reading for pleasure. The journal also includes wonderful quotes about reading and books. Beautifully done.
