Great for inspiration and does a good job walking you through setting up your "dot journal" (AKA bullet journal). Nothing you can't find online somewhere, but if you're looking at using pen and paper ... you probably appreciate having a physical book to flip through. ( )

Definitely a repeat of what can easily be found in the web, at times seems to be a little too similar to bulletjournal.com. That said, the author present her experiences and personal preferences in a nicely organized and easy to follow resource. ( )

Got lots of great ideas and am ready to dust off my journal and get back to it. ( )

The original creator, Ryder Carroll, has all of his trademarked content (what is found in this book that has been stolen and renamed to make money) posted free at bulletjournal.com.

Calling Miller an "early adopter" is laughable; bullet journaling predates her "dot journaling": Carroll created his trademarked bullet journaling method in 2013. Miller's first article about bullet journaling on Buzzfeed, "WTF Is A Bullet Journal And Why Should You Start One? An Explainer [sic]" was written on May 31, 2016, and mentions her starting bullet journaling in January of 2016, a full three years after bullet journaling was created and had time to flourish. While yes, Miller acknowledges Carroll in her blog, she does not mention that his methods in their entirety are freely accessible at his website, which she has repackaged them in book form to be sold for $12.95 retail (or whatever price they are being sold for).

I have posted (and reposted - when I’m assuming the author had it removed) this review MULTIPLE times on Amazon; I refuse to believe Miller is a legitimate journalist and would never dream of calling her an author, much less deign the title of writer upon her (given the quality of her writing as seen from BuzzFeed).

Quick read with many example layouts covering a wide variety of topics. Includes specific product comparisons, diary/journal-related quotes and informative tidbits, and lots of humor. ( )
