PAPERAGE Lined Journal Notebook, Hardcover Journal for Women & Men, 160 Pages, (5.6 in x 8 in), College Ruled Journaling Notebook for Work, School Supplies & Note Taking, (Black)

This Paperage lined journal has been great for daily journaling and note taking. The 100 gsm paper is thick and smooth, so my fountain pens and gel pens don't bleed through or feather. I like the compact 5.6 by 8 inch size, which fits easily in my bag while still providing plenty of writing space across its 160 pages. The cover feels sturdy yet soft to the touch and the elastic closure and ribbon bookmark help keep everything tidy. Overall, it's a well-made, affordable notebook that feels more premium than other mid-range journals I've owned, and I would order it again in other colors.

I absolutely love these notebooks and have continued loving them as I use them more and more. I love the back pockets, and the color options available. They are made very well, and always look just as beautiful as advertised. The only concern/ problem I had was my corner being damaged (but no knowing when it happened or really who is to “blame”) but otherwise I’ve literally ordered at least five and every time I am happy with my purchase. Which is why despite the damage done to the notebook I still say this is a 5/5 product because 1) the damage done isn’t more than an accident, 2) every other notebook I’ve received has had no damage, and 3) the quality shows in the product and I can see now why they are such a well known in the journaling/ junk journaling community.

I really am quite pleased with so many things about this journal. The paper inside has a great quality in terms of how the thickness of each page is impressive since while writing in it I haven't experienced my pens bleeding through or if I am a person that uses more forceful writing so I am pleased about that. Also the color Black option suits me in terms of being preferable as an option I wouldn't want another color. I love to write in it every day and the binding is tight so between the page thickness, durable binding, color and the abundant page count of 160 pages I also think the size makes it easier to carry with me in different size bags and pocket books giving me everything I could expect in a 5.6 inches by 8 inch journal. I love it and this could be perfect for non serious writers to jot down all of their various passwords or just having a nice book to remember a favorite quote or books you want to buy when Kindle has a double points rewards day. The usefulness for each person is different and personal. I want to order two more for keeping my own information organized. That this item is the same one I'd order again.

I have been trying to get back into hand writing again. I have some journals that are hardcover and softcover but wanted to try something else. I have an inq smart pen and notebook. I really like its size, paper, and spiral binding. It has become what I hold as a standard. I have more of them but just couldn't use them for non smart pen writing. 3 of them are cheaper than the same number of this paperage, but I wasn't worried because the size is only slightly smaller. The paper is 100gsm vs 90. The lines are about the same distance. The hardcover on the paperage age is thicker and feels great. The movement of the paper on the spiral binding feels great. I have the burgundy color. I usually get black but for one story only I wanted a different color. I like it. I'm glad I bought it. A little expensive but also quality. A pocket on the inside back cover to hold post-its or index cards. Worth the buy.

Love the quality and the colors and the overall feel of the book. I journaled in Moleskine for the last 20 years and due to price, I'm starting to look at other options. Overall, this is a solid journal - paper is thick in a lovely cream, binding and cover are sturdy. My only issue, and it's 100% personal issue, is that the lines are college ruled NOT narrow ruled. After two decades of writing in narrow ruled journals, it's glaringly obvious to me. I had to study customer photos, purchase and open the package and then compare old journals to confirm that information. At the time of purchase, that detail is not listed in any of the descriptions. If you're insane and picky AF like me, just be aware the lines are (ever so slightly) wider than Moleskine journals and the title line is on the stumpy side. If you don't mind and are not crazy, please absolutely buy this journal!

This pink journal is really cute and well made. The paper is good quality and doesn’t bleed through, even when using most pens. The binding is a little flimsy, but it still holds the pages together well. One of my favorite features is the pocket in the back of the journal, which is perfect for storing envelopes, notes, stickers, and other small keepsakes. Overall, it’s a great journal with plenty of space for writing and organizing extra items.

As good as the brand name notebooks for 1/3 the price. They're available in many colors and they're constructed very well. Nothing to complain about at all.

Nice journal paper firm, lined, cover hard and durable. Very nice! Quality very good!

Great deal for a quality notebook. Not quite on the level of a moleskine, but for the price I would take this any day for a regular everyday use. Very vibrant colored cover.

very good quality paper. i like it a lot

I’m a broke journal nerd. Lechtturm1917 is the best option for durability, paper quality /smoothness, and the journals have an index and page numbers. Leuchtturm1917 is very pricy, though. I have 11 Paperage journals. The covers aren’t the most durable but they are simple and aesthetic. The paper is stiffer than most options but it is also thicker, which can be nice since you don’t have to worry about pens or markers bleeding through. There are less pages than most competing options (at least the standard Paperage journal with 160 pages I think), which is a little frustrating but may be a bonus if you’re a beginner or just find big journals intimidating. Using Paperage journals to me feels a bit like settling, but it still satisfies my journal needs.

Love, I use it as my junk journal and it’s great quality (especially because I use this for an untraditional purpose and it still holds up). So if you’re just planning on using pen and paper, even better I’m sure.
