“To Read or Not To Read” by Ink & Willow

A Journal, a Diary, a Book of Thoughts!

This is unlike any journal I have ever seen before.  That is because it is geared toward those who read, a lot, and who like to keep a record of what has been read–along with their opinions (reviews) of the books.  The majority of the volume is devoted to that purpose. A variety of each book’s attributes can be noted on the volume’s forms:  the title, author, date read, when published, book type, opinion, rating (5 books being the best), why it was read, any inspiration from the reading, and if it would be recommended to others.

The book is small (5 ¾” wide by 7 ¼” height), but is substantial, that feels good in the hands with pages made of good quality paper.  It would fit nicely in a pocket, backpack or purse.  There is a place to list books to read, making your own personal TBR (to be read) pile.  It also contains some trivia.  For instance, there are a variety of lists, to name a few:  Pulitzer Prize Winners since 1948; The BBC Top 100 Reads; PBS:  The Great American Read.

Book quotes are inserted throughout the book, along with a small number of short biographies of, little-known or rarely highlighted, people.  This is a journal, a diary, a book of thoughts, a perfect item for voracious readers.  For those in that category, it would be a 5-star book.

Ink and Willow (WaterBrook & Multnomah Gift Line) has provided Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, To Read or Not to Read, for the purpose of review.   I have not been compensated in any other manner. All opinions expressed are my own, and I was not required, or influenced, to give anything but an honest appraisal.  I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255.
