The journal was sentient sure his father and his grandfather read it but they never gained the memories or the soul piece that Jin absorbed. Jin was the only one in the family line that had interest in Fuinjutsu and he was the only one in the family line that was an actual ninja and not a civilian. Due to this fact he was the only one that the journal gave the memories to.
