5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely notebooks!

(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } Bought these as they were great value and looked really smart and sturdy. I needed something that would do well with being carried around on a daily basis, so these looked perfect!The covers are really lovely and soft, the colour is definitely true to image as well. The paper feels really nice quality, the pages are all numbered as well and there is a contents page at the start, so that's really helpful if you want to keep your notebook more organised!It does come with a little set of sticky tabs as well which was really nice.I haven't written in it yet, but from feeling the pages I don't believe there would be much bleed through/transfer from using a regular pen, a fountain pen or felt tip may bleed through though.Only complaint is that they did have a really strong almost chemical like smell to them upon opening. I think that may be to do with the material the cover is made out of. They've been out of the packet for about 3 days now and the smell is still slightly present, but not as strong.

5.0 out of 5 stars Useful notebooks for writers.

Love these notebooks. Numbered pages, rear wallet, elastic closure, two bookmarks, lie flat, pen holder...Half a dozen or more rear pages are perforated, and the paper quality is slightly more porous. This is useful for testing various nibs and inks and comparing them with the main pages. For example, a fine Pilot 823 nib will write medium+ at the back. A medium nib may be too much. And that meant a fine nib was perfect on the main pages. But that's my use of the tear-offs - pen testing.Useful books at a reasonable price. GVFM.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bullet journaler (journalist?) gets what he paid for.

I wanted some new notebooks for bullet journaling and, although the fancy videos want you to buy pricey with dotted paper, numbered pages, tiny index at the front, etc, I prefer squared paper (or even lined!), no numbers and the freedom to set up an index as long and rambling as I choose. I must explain that my bullet journals are not like the more recent YT videos - no calligraphy, no illustrations you would show anyone ... ugly untidy brutes, perhaps, but flexible, practical, functional - structured to meet my needs rather than someone else's aesthetic criteria.These are relatively inexpensive A5 notebooks. They come in pairs. And, oddly perhaps, I do not feel that I have simply settled for them as a cheaper option. I genuinely prefer them. They are robust and attractive. The paper is decent quality and it doesn't bleed with the pens that I like to use.So, if it's a journal for display that you require, you might want to pay double or more to keep up with the video Joneses. But if you just want the practicality of the system that Ryder Carroll demonstrated in his earliest videos and his book (which deserves recommendation) consider these.

4.0 out of 5 stars Budget friendly bullet journal

M.A. · 6 March 2025

Good quality hard-backed journal ideal for bullet journaling with elastic string secure fastener and two nylon string placeholders and an elastic pen holder. The pages are thick enough to leave no trace or bleed through to other side. However, the printed dots appear clearer in photos and in reality are very light and harder to see so I shall deduct a star for this, because it is important particularly when you are drawing lines or shapes. It contains an Index, numbered pages and a small envelope to keep things inside the back cover, which is a nice touch. Other similar but more expensive journals may have clearer dots and stickers to mark sections but this is still of a high quality and excellent value for money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid notebook

Ordered the two pack and both arrived the next day with zero issues.The books are bound really well and the paper is of high quality. A double strand page finder makes a nice change combined with the elastic band page placement. A small envelope built in to the rear cover is also a nice touch and you are supplied with a selection of colour dividers.I've used fountain pens and there's been no bleeding or feathering, ball point pens also have no issues.Each page is numbered at the bottom and at the top is printed "date". Up to you if you use this or not.The lines on the paper are quite subdued which is nice.... nothing like the books we used to get at school where the lines were very dominant and a little off-putting.The cover is hard wearing and has a solid feel.For a diary or just note taking this is more than adequate, well it's a notebook so use it how you want...Summary....great value, excellent quality thick paper with a nice size pocket at the back. Definitely recommend this book.

Dang good journal

Good price for what it offers (if you write a lot you will know what I mean). Some pens do bleed through but not all the time. Lays flat and functions as it supposed to, I literally write at the pro and outdoors alot
