Quality item. Looks classy and is very functional.

This is my 6th Paperage book. I love the quality. I use it for both journaling and art— using a variety of materials such as watercolor, ink, and marker. Marker will bleed to the next page, but that’s not an issue for me just stick a piece of cardboard under. The paper handles mixed media work , I’ve glued a lot of stuff into these without issue. The weight of the paper handles watercolor fine. The book is the perfect size. I’ve never had a spine break. The covers are slick and a nice blank canvas for if you feel like decorating them. Overall I’d recommend these books. They’re affordable and get the job done.

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.

No difference between this and a much more expensive notebook. It comes with stickers for the cover and spine when you want to archive it, and a paper pocket in back. The cover is very sturdy, and it does lay flat with some help. The paper is thick and opaque and doesn't show felt, ballpoint, or gel on the other side. I haven't tried markers or paints. Good value.
