I present two methods.
Method 1
From this answer render
$\ln(x)=2\sum_{m=1}^\infty (\frac{x-1}{x+1})^{2m-1}/(2m-1)$
Then
$\ln 2>2×[\frac{2-1}{2+1}+\frac13(\frac{2-1}{2+1})^3]=56/81$
$\ln 3<2×(\frac{3-1}{3+1})+\color{blue}{2\sum_{m=2}^\infty (\frac{x-1}{x+1})^{2m-1}/(3)}=1+1/9 = 10/9$
In the blue expression the denominators of $2m-1$ are reduced to $3$ to get an upper bound, and then the terms are summed as a geometric series.
We then have
$\log_2(3)<(10/9)/(56/81)=45/28.$
($\log_2(3)\approx1.585, 45/28\approx 1.607$)
Now $45^2-(45×28)-28^2=-19<0$, so $45/28$ must be less than the positive root of $x^2-x-1=0$.
Method 2
The number $(1+\sqrt5)/2$ has the continued fraction $[1,1,1,1,...]$ whereas $\log_2(3)$ will have some continued fraction $[1,a,b,c,...]$ where some entry becomes greater than $1$. If an odd-position entry is the first to be greater than $1$, then $\log_2(3)>[1,1,1,1,...]=(1+\sqrt5)/2$. If an even-position entry is the first to exceed $1$, then $\log_2(3)<[1,1,1,1,...]=(1+\sqrt5)/2$.
We set out to find the continued fraction entries for $\log_2(3)$, remembering that the reciprocal of each remainder is obtained by just reversing the arguments of the logarithm function:
$\log_2(3)=1+\log_2(3/2)$
$\log_{3/2}2=1+\log_{3/2}(4/3)$
$\log_{4/3}(3/2)=1+\log_{4/3}(9/8)$
$\log_{9/8}(4/3)=\color{blue}{2}+\log_{9/8}(256/243)$
(cf. Ryzard Szwarc's answer)
$[1,1,1,2,...]<[1,1,1,1,...]$
$\log_2(3)(\approx 1.585)<\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}(\approx 1.618).$
As a bonus, this method renders $[1,1,1,2]=8/5=1.6$ as the lowest terms fraction lying between the given numbers.
