PAPERAGE Hardcover Lined Journal Notebook — 5.6 x 8 in, 252 Pages
Product description
This soft-touch hardcover journal measures 5.6 x 8 inches and contains 252 college-ruled pages designed for everyday writing. The cover is made from vegan leather, offering water resistance and a durable exterior that protects your notes in a bag or on a desk.
Inside are 252 pages of 100 gsm, acid-free paper in a light ivory tone. The paper is heavier than typical notebooks, intended to reduce ghosting and bleed-through so you can use pens, pencils and many markers with confidence. Pages are college-ruled and numbered for easier organization.
The notebook uses thread binding so it opens flat for comfortable writing whether you’re left- or right-handed. Practical extras include an expandable inner pocket to hold receipts or notes, a ribbon bookmark to mark your place, a stretch elastic closure to keep the book shut, and a sheet of adhesive labels to personalize the cover or spine.
This model is suitable for journaling, class notes, work planning, bullet journaling, or creative writing. It’s offered in a palette of vivid and muted covers and comes in a few internal formats—lined, blank, dotted or grid—so you can pick the layout that suits your use.

Bought multiple times
This is my fourth purchase. I gave one away and still love the color choices. I write in it every morning — quality holds up and I’ll buy more colors.

Prefer this over pricier brands
I almost bought a pricier notebook but this outperformed it. Tabs to mark sections are handy. I finished one and ordered another for my studio — great thickness and no bleed for me.

Not compatible with fountain pens
I noticed heavy bleed, ghosting and feathering using fountain pens. Works fine with regular rollerballs or pencils.

Well-made with smooth pages
Solid construction and very smooth paper. I like the subtle page numbers — they’re there but don’t distract.

Ideal for daily journaling
I’ve gone through three over four years. Plenty of room and sturdy pages for heavier journaling. Cute colors and a convenient travel size.

Crystal Rose 5/5
Comparable to higher-end brands
I used to buy expensive journals but this surprised me. Strong binding, lays flat, two ribbons and an elastic closure. Paper quality holds up well for pencil — very pleased.

Better value than some German brands
Cheaper than some well-known European notebooks but with more pages and similar features: ruled, numbered, ribbon and elastic. Wide color selection too.
