PAPERAGE Lined Journal Notebook, (Blush), 160 Pages, Medium 5.6 inches x 8 inches - 100 GSM Thick Paper, Hardcover

I absolutely love this journal! The turquoise color is vibrant and eye-catching, and the hardcover makes it feel really durable. The 160 pages of 100 GSM thick paper are perfect for writing, drawing, or even doodling—no bleeding through. The dots are subtle and help keep everything organized without being too overwhelming. I’ve been using it for my to-do lists and notes, and it’s been a game-changer for staying organized. The size is just right too—fits easily in my bag but still gives me plenty of space to write. Got the coral color, too! Definitely recommend!

Good notebook! I use it as a sketchbook and it’s bleed proof, thick, soft, and holds color well. It’s small enough to be able to fit in any bag you carry and it’s amazing overall!

I haven't used this product yet. Amazon is so demanding about reviewing, one hardly has time to implement the product. It was delivered without problem. It looks as I expected - just like a notebook journal. I enjoy the color. It remains unwrapped. I plan to use it as my next Botanical Notebook #3, since my current #2 journal is at the end pages. It will then be in my definitive set of Botanical Notebooks. Great for keeping notes, ideas, sketches, doodles and capturing outdoor critters. What works, what doesn't? I also track climate change, temps, winds, and weeds.Keeping that in mind, I can only hope my desire to maintain my botanical studies is not hindered by outside factors not of my control. And, if my botanical garden suffers from these factors, such as tariffs and the like, I have this great new notebook to journal it all!I recommend that everyone buy one. Journal all events. Journal your broken heart, depression, environmental concerns, joblessness, inequality, discrimination and lost freedoms. Especially journalling the pure joy of a new bloom and the survival of a baby plant. Having enough water for you, your family and your plants is a journalist's dream come true. Who wouldn't want this journal? Right?

For the price these are awesome. This is the first time I've bought the Paperage brand (I'm a Moleskine man). The thing that attracted me to the "Paperage" brand is price. They're half price the cost of Moleskine.Pros:- Price- ColorsCons:- paper has a shinier/hard finish. I'm not sure if this is a "con" - Moleskine isn't my fav paper - a bit more absorbent, "feathery" with a fountain pen. So the polished paper might be better. I've seen some reviews that say "Not with a fountain pen" with this notebook. But my experience is that it's very good with a fountain pen - for the price. Not much bleed thru or feathering. Just a hint of "ghosting". See my attached photos:- cardboard cover. A bit thinner and less leather-like compared to Moleskine. Not a problem for me.I might update this review after using awhile but right now I'm 100% satisfied.

very cute and nice to work on! the paper is very smooth and i like the gentle off white colour of the sheets. i also love the colour choices that you can get this sketchbook in. so far ive bought two and both of them worked great for drawing! the paper is a little thin so whenever i draw with marker it tends to bleed through, but no biggie. im so happy that it comes with stickers! the binding and the spine of the book isnt the most durable thing ever, so if youre like me and you like to cram in random stuff in your sketchbook and you enjoy making your sketchbook thick and chunky, be prepared for the spine to rip a little bit. also try not to tear out too many pages :/ (i learned the hard way) 4/5! i plan to buy one of these each year for a yearly sketchbook collection!

I bought this to use as a "junk journal"Pages seem a little thin but I think it will work fine. Overall quality is good, cover is nice and sturdy.

This is one of the nicest little sketch books I’ve seen. The paper has a great surface for fine tipped marking pens, colored gel pens and drawing pencils - it’s smooth, erases pencil marks readily and absorbs ink quickly. I especially love that the pages are bound rather than glued at the spine. This allows for a flat surface by eliminating the ‘hump’ at the center when opened for sketching. It’s the perfect size for packing into a purse, satchel or backpack when you want make quick sketches or practice/develop ZenTangle patterns.
