There’s something magical about fall—the cozy sweaters, warm drinks, and the perfect excuse to curl up with a good book. 🍂 For book lovers like us, it’s also the ideal season to dive into a fresh reading list. But between work, family, and the busy autumn schedule, keeping track of what you want to read (and what you’ve already finished) can feel overwhelming.
That’s where a Reading Challenge Tracker comes in handy. And the best part? You can easily design one in Canva that matches your personal style, keeps you organized, and motivates you to finish your fall TBR (To Be Read) list!
Why Use a Reading Challenge Tracker?
A reading tracker does more than just list books—it helps you:
Stay organized with what’s on your list.
Motivate yourself to keep turning those pages.
Celebrate progress as you check off finished reads.
Create a keepsake that you can look back on at the end of the year.
Instead of juggling sticky notes or losing track in a phone app, Canva lets you create a beautiful, printable (or digital!) tracker that you’ll actually enjoy using.
How to Create Your Fall Reading Tracker in Canva
1. Pick Your Layout
Decide how you want to visualize your list:
A simple checklist for titles.
A bookshelf design where you “color in” books as you finish them.
A monthly calendar view to pace yourself.
Canva has endless templates to get you started, or you can design from scratch if you’re feeling extra creative.
2. Choose Your Fall Aesthetic
Make it fun by matching your tracker to the season. Think warm autumn palettes—deep oranges, burgundies, and cozy browns. Add elements like falling leaves, pumpkins, or even a coffee cup illustration for that extra cozy vibe.
3. Add Your TBR List
Type in the books you’ve been saving for fall. Mix in classics, new releases, or seasonal reads (hello, Anne of Green Gables rereads and cozy mysteries!). If your list grows, don’t worry—you can always duplicate your tracker and expand it.
4. Make It Interactive
If you prefer digital, add checkboxes in Canva so you can mark books as finished on your device. If you’re a pen-and-paper fan, download and print your tracker, then color, highlight, or doodle as you go.
