`Starter` does not cut it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You really cannot judge a book by its cover. This journal looks impressive from the outside with it`s sturdy cover and elastic strap but the inside is disappointing. Let`s start from the outside. The size of the journal is perfect for fitting into a bag or purse but definitely large enough for generous entries. The elastic strap is very beneficial for storing other papers inside without worrying of them slipping out (which is important given the flimsy inside pocket). I am not sure what the elastic strap on the back is for my hand? Now for the inside... The inside pocket is useless as it could easily rip if I stored just one too many papers/objects. I also didn`t like the `directions` as it makes what is supposed to be my journal less personal. Other than that the paper quality is good and the small details of a space for date and to-do lists is great. I do agree with other users that putting the tearable to-do lists in the back of the journal would be better.

Good Starter Journal

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This journal has a good amount of pages and has a sturdy cover to protect it from daily use. It has some great pages for planning out your day and for me making daily checklists is very useful. The elastic band on the back cover is a nice touch which I assume is to assist in holding on the go. If I`m out and about I can pull out my journal and easily jot something down.

A Neat Journal

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Journal is pretty neat. It has some distinct features like straps and neat little pockets for business cards and loose papers or notes. It has a sleek design with lines pages and even a sketch pages for the illustration of ideas. Overall not a bad journal. Not overwhelming but certainly not underwhelming.

Not enough to-do lists it has a weird structure. Like I'd have to do five or six random pages to get to the next page with a list? That's so weird.

The book is leading but not telling you what you should be writing about. There is plenty of space and the book is very sturdy.
