Review on Experience Luxurious Writing With Papercode'S Lined Journal Notebook - Perfect For Work, Travel, And College! - Grab Yours In Classic Black. by Jackie Morales

Paper is beautiful and thick. Papermate flair pens (felt tip) do not bleed through and write very smoothly due to smooth surface. Cover is durable, hasn't peeled/curled or even shown wear - I carry this everywhere at work and tote it around in a full backpack when its not in use. M previous go-to was Moleskine, but those get beat up s o quickly and the paper is too thin for flair felt tip pens.I did have to glue the ribbon bookmark back into the spine (there are 2 which is awesome for keeping my current place as well as another reference page, way more useful than I ever reallized. didn't know how much I needed the two bookmark ribbons until I had them, and i'm not going back!) since i was a little rough with it and it was only tacked in with some double stick tape. I just squeezed some e90 glue into the spine and smushed, but had to glue again with superglue to really fix it. I preemptively superglued the ribbon into the spine on the second book.The perforations are cleanly cut and very easy to tear along without ripping the page, but they only tear out if you want them to. No accidental perforation-tearing or separation even with rough handling, even when it fell and I had to grab it midair by the single page. When you do tear out a page, everything comes out cleanly and fairly easily - just don't yank, guide it out with even force. The fact that you get 2 is awesome - I've stopped shopping around for an ideal meeting/tasks work notebook. Minimal design, exceptional performance, incredibly functional. These are already in my cart again since I'm on the second one.
