[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hard cover journal is well made and has a handy pen holder and a nice pocket inside. I liked the lined pages and the few pages you could sketch. I would recommend!

I really like this notebook. It opens flat it has a little folder inside and it has a pen holder. The outside material seems sturdy when writing on non-desk surfaces.

Great Journal

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this journal! It is well made. I like the hard cover and the elastic band that is built in to keep it closed. It has an inside pocket so you can keep track of you papers receipts and such. I also like the small elastic band that can hold a pen handy.The pages are not flimsy at all and made with quality paper every fifth page is a blank section that can be used for side notes sketching or just doodling :-). there is a section at the top of the page to date your notes and there is a column added to note anything you may have scheduled that day at a specific time. That is helpful in helping me with the many meetings I have daily. There is also a peel off sticker at the back of the journal to label your journal on the spine of the book! That`s a great idea for those of us who have a few journals that we may archive.All in all this is an awesome journal and I like it a lot I`d recommend it to anyone who likes to journal!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This journal is not an ordinary journal it is full of features that make it a great buy! A pen loop on the spine to hold your pens a strap on the front over to hold things a slit on the outer front cover to tuck quick notes or paper in a strap on the back so you can easily hold it in one hand to write it even has a durable accordion style folder in the front cover. Not to mention the nice tips printed inside to help you with distinguishing things you write in it. It`s also very lightweight so you can carry it around all day.

Best Journal Purchase
on May 31, 2020
Posted by: Paul
This Journal is absolutely beautiful. The red cover is stunning. It has great added features like a business card slot on the cover a durable elastic band to hold the cover closed an elastic pen loop holder and a gusseted pocket to hold my most important documents. The page layouts are also great. I love the narrow ruled lines on the heavyweight paper and the numerical To Do List every 30 pages or so. Such a fantastic product. Journal was also delivered in 1 business day which is also a plus.

The Cadillac of journals

from St. Louis park
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first received this red journal in the mail I was a little off put by the color as it was very bold but it quickly grew on me. After using it for a couple of weeks I realized the Cir makes it really easy to spot around my house. Next I noticed the texture and the straps. The journal is like a soft faux leather and the straps are perfectly placed. One strap you can put your hand under to balance the journal on your hand (genius) and the other strap easily folds over to keep the journal closed. There is also a strap for a pen on the binder which is handy. There is white diangle stripe design which for days I thought was a slot where something goes into it but upon further inspection I realized it`s just a grey design stripe (or at least I assume). I thought it was really cool oj the back inside cover they included a long sticker to label and use for the spine. The verbiage by its is super cute and modern too. The inside front cover has a pocket good for loose notes or pages. The pages include a couple pages of lines then a page with a perforated edge with a bullet list which is a cool touch. The numbers 9-12-5 appear largely on it which probably represents something super obvious but I`m not understanding why they are there. A couple pages later have an empty page for sketches. It goes on like this throughout the entire journal. I had to rip a page out and it came out pretty easily. The journal ends with a reflection page which is a nice touch. Also there are cute little tips for `better note taking` and one includes using a star which I love! The pages are numbered. I should probably disclose that this is my first ever `official` journal. I`ve only ever used notebooks as I am more of a scattered jotter than an organized writer and and prefer to fold it back so it`s one page instead of open like a book. With that being said I`d probably stick with notebooks but if I was more serious about writing then this would be a great tool for me. Many small details make this journal seems like something expensive and luxurious.
