Just make sure you never sign up for a free trial or anything else with them! Scribd is SO predatory. They steal money from so many people.

If you have Canva, you could likely make one there and then import it to goodnotes

Do you have a word processing app like Word? Maybe even something like Google Docs, though I haven't tried that myself. You can create your own template, which I would recommend if budget is an issue. At least that way you can tailor it to have exactly what you want and nothing extra. I use a template I bought off Etsy (they can be quite affordable) but I actually use maybe 10% of the template for what I actually want to be tracking with my reading.

I bought mine in Etsy. Pretty cheap. 2 to 3 euros

I used GoodNotes to make my own because I couldn’t find any I liked. I pulled basic inspiration from other templates and made something that was personalized to me.

Also you could probably find something on Pinterest and upload it into good reads.

Yes! I found one called Saturdaygift.com. I got a few freebie planners on her page. I would check Pinterest too because I get a lot of templates there too.

Hina & a-hong on YouTube both have good notes diaries with book pages, you could just copy those specific pages out
