Review: Nice quality notebook with thick paper - This Paperage lined journal has been great for daily journaling and note taking. The 100 gsm paper is thick and smooth, so my fountain pens and gel pens don't bleed through or feather. I like the compact 5.6 by 8 inch size, which fits easily in my bag while still providing plenty of writing space across its 160 pages. The cover feels sturdy yet soft to the touch and the elastic closure and ribbon bookmark help keep everything tidy. Overall, it's a well-made, affordable notebook that feels more premium than other mid-range journals I've owned, and I would order it again in other colors.
Review: Great journal/ notebook - I absolutely love these notebooks and have continued loving them as I use them more and more. I love the back pockets, and the color options available. They are made very well, and always look just as beautiful as advertised. The only concern/ problem I had was my corner being damaged (but no knowing when it happened or really who is to “blame”) but otherwise I’ve literally ordered at least five and every time I am happy with my purchase. Which is why despite the damage done to the notebook I still say this is a 5/5 product because 1) the damage done isn’t more than an accident, 2) every other notebook I’ve received has had no damage, and 3) the quality shows in the product and I can see now why they are such a well known in the journaling/ junk journaling community.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice quality notebook with thick paper

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great journal/ notebook
*by A***Y on April 7, 2026*

I absolutely love these notebooks and have continued loving them as I use them more and more. I love the back pockets, and the color options available. They are made very well, and always look just as beautiful as advertised.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I HAVE MANY USES THAT THIS NICE STURDY JOURNAL'S QUALITY I'M ORDERING AS NOTEBOOKS!
*by K***1 on July 19, 2026*

I really am quite pleased with so many things about this journal. The paper inside has a great quality in terms of how the thickness of each page is impressive since while writing in it I haven't experienced my pens bleeding through or if I am a person that uses more forceful writing so I am pleased about that. Also the color Black option suits me in terms of being preferable as an option I wouldn't want another color. I love to write in it every day and the binding is tight so between the page thickness, durable binding, color and the abundant page count of 160 pages I also think the size makes it easier to carry with me in different size bags and pocket books giving me everything I could expect in a 5.6 inches by 8 inch journal. I love it and this could be perfect for non serious writers to jot down all of their various passwords or just having a nice book to remember a favorite quote or books you want to buy when Kindle has a double points rewards day. The usefulness for each person is different and personal. I want to order two more for keeping my own information organized. That this item is the same one I'd order again.
