Defeated monsters will randomly drop logs for your to pick up. Only took me 4 or 5 runs.

No, the drops are totally random - you may have to kill the same time type of enemy many times until they drop

Do they look like anything special? Can you tell they dropped when they do?

This is cumulative over all playthroughs of the game. If you played the first game, you'll know what this achievement is referring to, but if not, basically every single monster and environment (i.e. map) has a log associated with it that shows all information about that subject. These are viewable from your Logbook on the main menu.
Monster Logs are, unfortunately, complete RNG. Each monster in the game has a small percentage chance to drop its log when killed. They are little white items that look sort of like floppy disks, and they'll be lying on the ground where the monster died, with a white outline just like a white item. Make sure you pick them up when you spot them.
Environment Logs, on the other hand, are placed in specific locations in each map. The catch is that they disappear after five minutes in that map, and they're essentially always in hidden spots, tucked away. This means that you're essentially never going to stumble across one of these. But, if you know where they are, you can grab them in each map. Be aware, though, that most require you to have extra jumps, or the equipment that lets you fly briefly..Refer to the Wiki HERE for the list of Environments, and it'll show you the location of that map's log if you want to get them.
Personnally, I found one Environment Log on my own, and found plenty of other Monster Logs during my time with this game such that I probably had closer to 20 when I was done with all other achievements. So, I would recommend not bothering to go out of your way for Environment Logs unless you're down to just this achievement. Instead, just let them come naturally from killing mobs of enemies.
