    A reviewer

    The pages are cream colored and thick, so ink won't bleed through, which is nice. There is a small fleur-de-lis design that crosses the last three lines on every page that I could do without, though it is very light- like a watermark- so it won't interfere with your writing. The suede is glued to the covers and the glue used is not very good- I've had mine two days and already had to re-glue the back cover, but that was easy to fix (Still, I would not recommend this if you do a lot of traveling). The journal lays flat when opened which makes the writing experience pleasant. All in all, I'll use this journal but won't buy another of the same style once this is filled.

    Great Buy

    Beautiful journal, bought for me as a gift. I've used it as my daily journal for the past year with no problems. The glue holding the cover to the journal has held out no problem. As the year draws to an end I would easily buy another one for next year.

    Excellent suede journal

    This is a very nice suede journal that does what it is suppose to do, which isn't much. It contains blank pages on which one is to write whatever they choose. It's hard to screw that up!
