This is a great size Journal to have with you at all times. The journal comes with a rubber band binding so that it does not oprn and the pages get worn out and it has a page marker on the inside as well. It has thick paper so any pen you use will not bleed through to the next page I love my new journal.
Staples nailed it on their first try. Well thought out page design with edge to edge ruling for business (and students for that matter).High quality heavyweight paper to limit felt tip bleed. No tearing when you happen to push too hard with an ultra fine steel tip. Cover is durable enough while remaining lightweight. Pocket divider is well placed and made of durable high plastic.
I love this journal especially the graph paper inside as it allows me to be creative without being restrictive. I am a bit of a hard hand writer and so it gets imprints on the other pages which bothers me some otherwise I would give it a 5 stars. It only bled through when I used a sharpie type marker on one page otherwise the Papermate gel pens I use work awesome!
