Nice quality notebook
I really like the size and quality the only issue is there is not an option to select color and you get whatever color is shipped. I was really hoping for the purple color.

No color choice
If I could have chosen the colors - I would have given it 5 stars. I love this type of notebook. Paper quality lay-out and divider are good.

Beautiflu
This is great I am one to title and date my work and that's one of the reasons I purchased this product but I also love the bookmark that it came with that is really convenient since I always lose my place in books. 10/10 would recommend.

Notepad
This notepad is ideal because of its size and dimensions. It is neither too heavy or to big to fit in any bag or briefcase.

This notepad has a surprisingly sturdy plastic cover paper that is thicker than typical notebook paper a bookmark that can be moved by snapping it off of/onto the spiral wire binding and a folder pocket inside the cover. I am very pleased with this purchased and would definitely buy it again.

Almost perfect
Things I like: calendars pocket pre-printed date section boxes along the side of each line that can be used to check off tasks or mark important entries. I also like the moveable divider but I haven't needed to use it yet. Things I would like better: the date section to always be on the outer side of each page to make it easier to flip through the pages to find a ce...

My favorite Notebooks
I've been using these notebooks for the past 2 years i go through them on a regular basis. I buy these whenever I see them to keep stock. The paper is smooth the size of the notebook is perfect i like the perforation option on them and the bookmarker.

Carolina Pad feedback
I was disappointed because the front and back cover are not made of heavy enough material to support just writing on the pages without the notebook being placard on a table. The cover could not support you just writing on the pad without some kind of support behind it. I also wish there was a little more of a margin on the page to call out important notes.

Cover is great
The cover on this pad is made with a strong plastic material and has pockets. Much better than a cardboard one. Rest of pad is good quality also

Best Journal Ever!
With 25 years experience journaling this is my favorite. Heavy duty spiral waterproof from water-glass sweat rings on the table 2 pockets hold 8.5x11 folded in half everything I need. I don't need perforated pages to rip out but some people may. Paper stock is heavy (some spiral books have rough thin paper). It tucks into a tote bag nicely.

Great Quality
I love the quality and size of this notebook. The paper is thick I like taking notes w/ a fine tip Sharpie and there is less bleed through with this paper than thinner paper. The poly covers keep it in good condition with constant use.

Perfect Notebook
This is the perfect notebook. It has a 4 year calendar separate list of holidays and each page has a place for the topic and date. Plenty of space to write even if you write large. Pages turn easily and you can fold it back if have limited space to write. Also the cover and back is plastic with pockets and it is a beautiful pale pink. LOVE IT and would definitely...
