I love this! Please take us along on updates throughout the year. I'd love to see your monthly layouts. I think I'll go back and binge watch all your previous planner videos.

I loved seeing your 2024 journal spreads — they look so good. And I’m excited for our Taylor Swift deep dive, and cannot wait for our first liveshow!

It's great to see how you made that journal your own, Kristin. It makes it uniquely yours and what's on it are what you feel is important to you. And that's why this video is so entertaining.

Yeah, that 24-books for this year is not something that I find myself doing. I only have three books that I really want to read this year and possibly two more that I would like to accomplish but not really restricting myself to do it. I'm too much of a mood reader to give myself that kind of a goal. I have other reading goals but again, not making myself held up by them as I'm a mood reader.

Ohhh this is making want to go back to creating a reading bullet journal instead of using the Con*Quest journal I bought. Your spreads are so organized and laid out so well. I am also excited for you and Alexa’s Taylor Swift live shows.

Nice ideas, Kristen! I love your photos idea.
For the last few years I've kept a Reading/Entertainment Journal, encompassing reading, video games, tv shows and movies. This is fun, as reading and gaming are my favourite hobbies and it's fun to keep track of what shows I've watched and what I thought of them, too!
I don't do spreads for individual books, as I'm reading a lot these days, plus I don't have a printer, so I just have monthly reads pages and then there'll be a favourites and totals pages at the end of the year. My journal is a mess lol, but it's lots of fun, especially this year where I've made more of an effort XD
Libby has saved me A LOT of cash, and I'm only buying physical copies of books I either know I'll love - looking at you, Witch Hat Atelier :-) - or ones I listened to on Libby and would like a physical copy to reread later.
My body has been through ups-and-downs and so one of my goals to help it out is to do gentle exercise EVERY DAY. So, 10-15 minutes gentle yoga for my back/hips, and this will slowly help my body, mind and spirit :-)
As for resolutions, I don't really do them anymore, but I did decide it would be nice to 'Be the best version of ME that I can BE!' I like that XD

I kinda want to take your ideas for anime and tv show and turn them into thier own journal. My bf loves anime and Manga. He is always making list of what I should watch or read. I think a journal would help keep all that organized. Thanks!❤

Nice washi collection! I have way too much and can’t stop buying more-although I am getting more selective 😊in which ones I buy. Just bought a set of 2 by Recollections that has crescent moons and what could be a Velaris panorama but you’d have to stretch your imagination lol. Thanks for sharing! I did want to ask where the washi with the books came from-is that from Basically Britt?

I'm wondering at what point the booktubers who do "24 books to read in 2024" etc, stop because the year is getting too high 😂
