Free Book Series Tracker Printable For Your Reading Journal
If you read series, you know the specific kind of chaos that comes with juggling more than one at a time. You are three books into a fantasy series, two books into a cozy mystery series, andand your Goodreads shelves are full of “currently reading,” “want to read,” and half-finished series you keep meaning to go back to. A Book Series Printable gives you one clean place to hold all of that, so you can actually see your progress instead of just hoping you remember it.
Because tracking your reading does not have to mean spreadsheets or apps or complicated systems. Sometimes the most satisfying solution is a printed page, a pen, and a few colored blocks to fill in. Simple, tactile, and completely yours.
In this post, you will get a full look at how this tracker works, who it is perfect for, and how to fold it into your existing planner or journal setup.
Why You Should Start Using a Book Series Tracker
If you read a lot of series throughout the year, especially fantasy and mystery. The problem is that some series have three books, some have twelve, and some somehow keep expanding forever.
After a while, everything starts to bled together.
I wanted a simple way to track:
- how many books were in a series
- how many I had already finished
- when I started reading
- whether I’d want to reread it later
- which series I’d actually recommend to friends
That’s what I like most about this reading journal template for series tracking. It keeps everything visible without overcomplicating the process.

Digital Use (Goodnotes etc.)
You can also use these printables digitally, which makes tracking even more flexible. Simply download the files and upload them to your favorite note-taking apps like Goodnotes, Notability, or other digital planner apps.
What’s Inside The Book Series Printable?
1 Blank Version and 1 Dot grid Version
This book series printable includes space for:
- author names
- series titles
- genres
- start and finish dates
- re-read?
- recommend?
- star ratings
- visual reading progress tracking
This printable fits four series on a single page. For each series, you fill in the basics: the author’s name, the series title, the genre, and your start and finish dates. There’s also a simple section where you can mark whether you’d reread the series or recommend it to someone else. That is it for the written fields. Clean and uncomplicated.
You don’t have to think about formatting or creating layouts myself. You can just sit down for a few minutes after finishing a book and update the page.
A lot of journaling advice online turns hobbies into elaborate projects, and sometimes that makes it harder to stay consistent. I’ve found that the systems I actually stick with are usually the simplest ones.

Reading Journals Feel Better When They’re Flexible
Some weeks I read constantly. Other weeks I barely touch a book.
That’s why I stopped trying to keep overly detailed reading logs.
Now I mostly focus on tracking progress and keeping a simple overview of what I’m reading. If I want to write longer thoughts or reviews about individual books, I usually use separate pages for that.
If you enjoy more detailed reflections, reviews, reading logs, my other free printables fit naturally alongside a reading journal spread like this because it gives you more room to actually write about the reading experience itself.

All pages are designed in A5 size, which is perfect for most bullet journals and planners. You can print them at home, print two A5 pages on one A4 sheet, or use a professional printing service for the best quality.
Personally, I love using a printing service and choosing thicker paper. This prevents alcohol markers from bleeding through.
One of the best things about printables is that you can start anytime. You don’t have to start on January. Simply download, print and start organizing your month.
This makes it easier to build a planning routing that fits your life, not the other way around.
If you want a deeper reading journaling experience beyond tracking series, my Reading Journal Bundle gives you space to log books, write reflections, and set reading goals all in one place.
