RETTACY Blank Journal Notebook, A5 Blank Journal with 192 Pages, 5.7'' × 8.3'' Medium Size, 68 LB/100 GSM Thick Paper, Leather Hardcover, for Sketching, Drawing, Painting (Brown)

This is such a beautiful color. I love that it has two bookmarks and the paper is lined and thick. The paper is also perforated so that you can tear out pages without ruining the whole journal. I added embellishments on mine and it looks so expensive.

The product is as described, an empty lined note book to write in. It's a pretty color. Now that I have it, I write stuff in it. I keep it secret , I keep it safe.

I've used many of this type of notebook in the past but this one is probably the best.First of all the feel of the leather binding made it easy to carry around all day to take notes. Secondly, the paper is heavy and high-quality. Unlike similar notebooks, the pages have tiny perforations so that a sheet can be removed cleanly.There is a section at the front that is labeled "Content" for you to document where each section begins and speaking of that, this came with a small number of "post-it" style tabs that you can stick on pages to quickly find sections.As usual, there was a sturdy pen-holder on the side and an elastic band to hold the notebook closed when not actively taking notes.This also features TWO RIBBONS! Very handy as I used one for marking the current page for my journal entries and the other one for where I was jotting-down notes/future topics.And finally, there is a "pocket" inside the back cover that was perfect for storing papers (like receipts and a flyer I received.)

I love this notebook. I like the numbered pages. It even came with these little sticker dividers to separate it into sections if you wanted to. It has a little ribbon book marker built in, a holder for a pen or pencil and an elastic band to keep it closed. Very durable and beautiful. Great value for the price!

The pages are that perfect off-white color (I can't stand that stark white for paper), and the notebook is quality. The lilac is beautiful, and the lines are really unobtrusive and subtle. Such a nice book!That's why I'm not going to return it; and, this was apparently the last one. I would have rated it 5 stars, but the bit scratch which evidently caused the hole in the back is bad. Fortunately I'm an artist and can figure out a way to cover it...it's for me and not a gift, but Amazon really should watch their deliveries. This is t the first damaged thing I've gotten. I would like to get another one, but may see if they can deliver it in a box, instead of just shrink-wrapped.Beautiful notebook!

I purchased six A5 graph notebooks of different brands to compare. Of this six, this is my favorite by far. The paper is sturdy, but not too thick. No bleed through from any of the pens that I use. (Mostly frixion) The cover is extremely smooth, and the most amazing this of all is it lays flat without any extra effort on my part.

This is a great notebook, very well made and very good quality of materials.

What’s not to like. Great paper weight and well made journal.
