The Bookworm Life Planner

peanut butter taco book planner 14Last year, with the introduction of my book review blog, I needed an easy-to-use planner to keep up with books read, publication dates, Goodreads reviews, book review dates and publisher archive dates. I had a lot of information to keep organized and I didn’t have a great way to do it. Yes, I adore all things Erin Condren, but I never took the time to design and tailor her planners for my book blog. I eventually used a deluxe planner with additional notes pages. It worked for the most part and I’m glad I had it for this first year.

She started a book club and I am so glad I was in the right place at the right time to join.

She spent some serious time researching and asking and perfecting the final product. She asked what her readers needed the most, what they would use, and what they could do without.

I have collected quotes from books, poetry, and song lyrics over the years dating back to grade school. I love collecting quotes that catch my eye and really mean something to me.

Finally, these book review pages, bookshelf, and MVP pages are the extras that make this Bookworm Life planner stand out.  Now all I need to do is spend some time getting my dates in here and organizing my stickers for efficient book planning. I have a busy reading year coming up and I can’t wait to see this planner in action.
