What is a reading journal and how do I order one in Kenya?
A reading journal is a notebook made for tracking the books you read and your thoughts on each one. Print Lion designs both the cover and the interior pages in-house, so it works as a complete journal from the first page to the last. Readers, book clubs, schools and libraries all order them. The minimum order is one journal, and the price depends on the size and quantity you need, so send your size and quantity for a quote. Orders are ready in 1 to 2 days once your artwork is correct and approved. Delivery is available to all counties in Kenya, and you can also collect from the Print Lion office on Moi Avenue in Nairobi.
Inside pages designed, not just the cover
Print Lion designs the interior layout in-house, so your journal has proper pages for logging titles, authors and your thoughts. It is a real reading journal, not a blank cover over plain paper.
Ready in 1 to 2 days
Once your artwork is correct and approved, your journal is ready in 1 to 2 days. That keeps things moving whether you need one copy or a batch for a whole book club.
Order just one, or many
The minimum order is a single journal, so a solo reader can order one and a school or library can order in bulk. Send your size and quantity and you get a price to match.
Professional printing
Clean printing and a tidy finish across the cover and every interior page, drawing on 20 years of print and finishing experience.
What customers say about Print Lion
Getting your artwork ready
You can supply your own interior pages or have Print Lion design them for you. Accepted files are PDF, high-resolution TIFF, JPEG, PSD, and AI or other vector files. Word, PowerPoint, Excel and Publisher files are not accepted, and neither are Canva or Google Docs links. Artwork should be at least 150 DPI at final print size. CMYK and RGB are both fine, but printed colour can look different from your screen, so ask for a sample if exact colour matters. Allow 2 mm of bleed beyond the trim edge, and keep text and graphics at least 10 mm inside the trim edge. Send your files by email, WhatsApp or a shareable link. Print Lion sends a proof, and printing starts only after you approve it.

How much does a reading journal cost?
