So there's actually 20 journal entries to collect, and honestly they're some of my favorite bits to find while playing. You'll start seeing them right from the jackson chapters, and they really add some nice little story moments throughout.

I found a bunch of cool ones in seattle day 1 - there's this sweet moment where you can sketch the view from a radio tower, and theres another neat one in the children's library with this cute giraffe plushie. When you're in joel's place during packing up, dont miss checking out his kitchen for an owl mug sketch, and definitely look around his workshop to draw his guitar.

The entries are spread across pretty much every major area - jackson, all three seattle days, and even the santa barbara sections. What's kinda nice is how they tell their own little story through ellie's drawings, and if you're going for trophies, grabbing all these plus the other artifacts will get you the archivist achievement.

Just a heads up if you're playing the new pc version coming next april - all these collectibles are in the same spots, so you can use the same locations to find them. Sometimes they're a bit tucked away but usually in places that make sense for the story, which i always thought was pretty clever design.
