Review: 3 Year Update Review - As I went to repurchase this Notebook, I realized I should leave a review. I own many of these notebooks, and I still have and use my notebook I purchased 3 YEARS AGO! For those wondering, it has two bookmarks, an elastic strap that keeps the notebook closed, and haven't had a single one snap. Has a small folder in the back as well as perforated pages if you need to take a page with you. Lastly the elastic pen holder that comes with the notebook is a great feature. Diving into what matters however is the paper quality. I would say for the price it definitely get's the job done. Ink drys fast with ball point pens as well as fountain pens, however there is some page bleed. The paper is great to write on however and that is why I love this notebook so much. I'm able to toss it into my bag, backpack, or carry it with my bible as it's not too big, but not too small its just perfect. Lastly, no this isn't a paid review or whatever, I wish it was shooooot. Yo Jeff hit me up, but besides that I really just got bored and felt compelled to waste 10 minutes of my life writing a useless review. If you've read this far, I hope you have a lovely lovely day. Today will present you with many great blessings, make sure to be on the lookout!
Review: Excellent Quality & Functional Style - I am an avid writer and use my journal multiple times a day. I purchased this notebook to be my new journal in Dec 2023 and am about halfway through it in Feb 2024. The pleather hardcover feels smooth and sturdy and protects the pages quite well. I travel with this notebook in my purse and backpack every time I leave the house and it’s held up nicely with wear and tear. The texture makes it perfect for adding stickers to decorate and I haven’t had any issues with the stickers falling off even with minor damage. It comes with 2 ribbons to mark pages as well as a pocket with bonus colored sticker tabs. The pages are thick and I haven’t had any issues with bleeding ink. I use a 0.7mm and 1.0mm zebra gel pen for reference. The close up picture shows how well the ink absorbs into the page and doesn’t show any bleed through from the other side (please note there is very minor visibility of the flip side of the page as this is a very zoomed in image and a thick gel ink was used). The pen holder that’s built into the side of the notebook has also held up nicely with my constant pushing and pulling out my pen. Overall the quality of the notebook is excellent and it’s very functional for my journaling needs with gel pens. I am definitely purchasing this brand of notebook again as I’m rather picky with my journaling books.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buying a second one
*by D***Y on February 10, 2025*

I bought the navy blue color (the website calls it light blue) in 2021, and now it’s 2025 and I’m about to order a second one. The notebook is thick (unlike many other notebooks I ordered on Amazon which looked thick in the pictures but were thin like the composition notebook after I got them in person), the papers are in high quality, the binding is smooth to the point that it flattens out when you open and write on it. I LOVE the page numbers at bottom right corner. I made a Table of Content, so flipping to the page for the relevant notes was extremely nice and helpful. The notebook does not have a TOC page, which to me is great because I need the freedom to designate where I want my TOC: ie, I usually leave the first two to four pages blank. The pen holder saves me the hassle from looking for a pen when I need to jot down an idea right away. There are two bookmark ribbons in different colors - love them. It’s been so many years now, and the cover and notebook paper are still looking sturdy and good. The only thing is that the elastic tie has lost the elasticity a bit after all these years. I’m ordering a second one.
