Great Affordable Notebook
I’ve purchased this notebook twice and will definitely buy it again. Itâs perfectâexactly what I need without overspending. The binding is strong, the leather looks and feels great, and the off-white pages are easy on the eyes with nicely rounded edges. The built-in bookmark is a useful touch. Highly recommend.
Mr. Adams –
Great professional note taking book.
I own several of these and have filled them as I go. The quality of the books is very high with good paper and binding. Their is a small receipt holder in the back that is perfect for temporary holding of receipts or loose leaf notes. The color is classy and the binding band keeps everything together.

Poor Man’s Moleskine
No sense in spending $30+ on fancy notebooks if you actually go through them. Does the job perfectly. Will buy again.

It seems ok, but different than the photos
It’s a nice notebook. I haven’t written in it yet but I got it to write down my recipes. I will say, and this is just a small thing I noticed not a big deal, in the pics, the pages look more warm tone and thinner, but in person the pages are that cool tone like printer paper and thicker. So they are different from the photos and I noticed some of the reviews pointed out the differences too.

Great value
I bought a few of these as they are wonderful for notetaking. The leather holds up well and I like the stretchable strap thing to keep the journal closed. Good for the value as well.

Tactile quality for a writing experience
It’s trendy, I know, to talk about a “dining experience,” a “shopping experience,” etc. I think marketing agencies have come up with that terminology to appeal to us. It really fits with some things, however. Reading a real, hardback book is one. The experience of sitting down in a comfortable chair with a hardback book is substantially different from standing on a bus reading the same thing off an e-reader on a smartphone. Location and physical materials do affect the experience.Another place the materials matter is writing. Yes, you can write something in a blog, or if you use paper, yes you can use notebook paper or a legal pad and put the sheets in a manilla folder. But writing in a bound book is just DIFFERENT. That’s why blank books are continually popular with a segment of the knowing, literate public.Now to this little book. The Gibson note books are quality bound, with a look and feel that somehow inspires writing. I keep one in a private office at work to make a daily page of inspirational notes. I have another at home for a journal. I will take another–the larger size–with me this coming summer when I ride my motorcycle from the east coast to Sturgis, SD. Every evening, I’ll take it out and record the day’s sights and sounds. It packs neatly and compactly. It isn’t too short for the job or too long–leaving wasted pages that I wouldn’t want to use for an unrelated subject. It’s just perfect.And as I say, a little book like this inspires writing. I write with a fountain pen. While the paper is perhaps optimal for a ballpoint, it does just fine with a fine point, italic ground nib. I imagine that’s why Sheaffer had some of these same books done up with their imprint a few years ago.As Arnold said, “I’ll be back.”

Aspectos positivos:- Me parece razonable el precio. – Los materiales se sienten de calidad- Diseño elegante y a la vez sencillo.Aspectos negativos:- El resorte que sostiene el cuaderno está manufacturado con algo de tensión, por lo que el cuero parece algo lastimado (pero nada grave a la vista).- El papel es algo delgado a mi gusto. Si utilizas plumas fuente o sueles recalcar mucho tu letra, tal vez no sea la libreta adecuada para ti.Pero ante todos los aspectos mencionados, yo estoy feliz con mi compra.P. D. – Puede ser un regalo perfecto para tu amigo(a) escritor(a).
