Ratings and reviews

im not a reader by any means.. but i just couldnt put it down.. had so many great ideas and really helped me be motivated.. ive been bullet journaling for over a year before reading this.. great read!

A clear and detailed How and Why of the BuJu Method. When getting into Bullet Journaling there was/is a vast amount of content online from simple journals spreads to extremely complex, decorative journals. Now that I'm reading this book I am gaining a better understanding of the method straight from Ryder vs pasting bits and pieces together from the net. I am very pleased with this purchase.

If you are new to bullet journaling, this will make things abundantly clear. I have been bullet journaling for a year or so and there are some new tips that I picked up just glancing through. I plan to sit down and read everything through and revamp my current journal. Overall, very good if you're interested in the BuJo method.
