Full Description

5 Reviews

1. I wasn’t sure from the description if this book would have writing prompts in it (since it’s called a “guided journal”) … but it didn’t. It had just lined pages, which is what I wanted. Very nice blank book.

2. De carpeta dura en diferentes tonos de azul con toques en verde y plateado. Los disen~os son levemente al relive. Abre plano lo cual facilita la escritura. De 7″ X 8″ aproximadamente. Una magnifica pieza de elegencia para coleccion. Es simplemente; Magnifico! Volveria a comprarlo sin ninguna duda!

3. I am a prolific journal keep and have written daily for almost a decade now, and in that time have gone through dozens of journals.

   The first thing I notice when this journal arrived was that it is a lot wider than I expected it to be. Of course had I paid attention to the measurements I would have known that. It isn’t a knock against it at all, but if you need a traveling journal you might look at something a tad narrower.

   The cover is very well done and the quality of the paper and binding is very good. The paper is thick enough I don’t worry about ink bleed through from my fountain pen. The spine has held up very well and so have the cover. The pages themselves are slightly yellowish and lined. All in all I am happy with my purchase, it is a good journal and at a very good price.

4. I have received the item in good time and I am extremely content with it. The journal looks actually better than in the picture and it’s LOVELY! It’s a great present and I totally recommend it. Thank you so much for this wonderful product!

5. I’ve had twelve journals in eleven years, and this one is by far the best I’ve ever used. My reasons:

   1. It’s absolutely beautiful. The silver scrolls and flecks on the cover design don’t show up in the online picture, but in real life they add a subtle sparkle to the whole book.

   2. The hardcover is very sturdy, which is good for me because I put a lot of wear and tear on my journals. So far, after four months of traveling everywhere with me, the hardcover has only the tiniest bit of wear at the corners.

   3. The paper is great quality–very thick and creamy and smooth. If you make a dark mark on one side of the paper, you can’t see it on the other side of the paper, which (for me) is a huge plus.

   4. The lines are 5/16 in. apart from each other, so they give ample room if you have larger handwriting.

   5. The lines are visible but they are thin and gray(instead of bold and black), so they don’t dominate the page.

   6. The lines leave a good 1/2 in. for margins both near the spine and at the edge of the page, which makes it easier to write and read.

   7. The book actually lays flat without having to be held down. After writing in many different journals I can tell you that almost NO journal in my experience lays flat on its own. This one does and it’s so comfortable for writing!

   8. The journal actually has sewn binding, rather than just cheaply-glued binding. That means that I won’t be seeing years of my memories peeling away from the spine like pages on a notepad and getting lost.

   The only thing that could make this book possibly better is the inclusion of a marker ribbon. Other than that, I think this book is fantastic and I’m going to be looking into Peter Pauper Press books for my journaling needs from now on.
