RETTACY Lined Journal Notebook, 192 Numbered Pages, A5 Size (5.7'' x 8.3'')

I use two of these journals at a time: one to plan my novel, and the other as a diary/braindump combo. I don't decorate the pages or do any impressive bujo designs, so I can't speak to how it would serve as a bullet journal. However, these babies see a lot of heavy writing use from me. I've purchased four of them so far and not a single one has disappointed. Page thickness is great. I accidentally spilled water on a couple pages and it didn't bleed through, which was shocking to me, given how affordable this journal is compared to most others listed. The pages are smooth and easy to write on, so be careful with any pens that might smudge or smear. The paper will certainly make it easier to pick up and spread wet ink on your hands. I'm a ballpoint user and I've noticed that finer tips work best, but even with the standard cheap-o pens, I just give them a minute or two to dry and then I'm highlighting all over them with no problem. It's solidly built. I've never had any issue with pages falling out, or the bookmark ribbons unfurling - and I'm writing in my journal at least 3 or 4 hours a day, constantly flipping back and forth through multiple brain dumps. (If you've got ADHD, you understand what I mean.) The color of the cover and ribbons are absolutely stunning, somehow prettier than the pictures show imo. I personalize the covers of my journals with stickers and writing, and whatever I put on has lasted. Overall, this journal has consistently impressed me by serving me well and I couldn't recommend a better one.

Love this book. It is a good size for me. The only critique I have is that the lines are a little bit skinny. I find myself writing every two lines, kidn of liek grade school BUT the lines themselves are skinny enough that it doesn't make abig difference. This is now my go to daily journal. The texture of the cover is hard and 'leather' (I don't know if it is real), which makes me think it could be a good art project in the future ot decorate it. The back envelope is very pretty and sturdy. The two ribbons seem sturdy as well. (Althought I do not know why someone needs two? I'm assuming theres a specific use for them) its big enough to fit in my purse as well, so its easy to bring it along when I want. I got the green one and it is a rich forest green. Would totally buy again.

These are my favorite notebooks. I have repurchased and bought for others probably over a dozen times. They are relatively fountain pen friendly. Depends on the ink and nib size but I use a medium nib with Diamine Writers Blood and only have a tiny bit of bleed through if I write over another spot before it is dry (like correcting a letter or something). It does take a second to absorb so don’t flip your page immediately or your ink with smear. Light colored Tom Bows are ok and dark are fine if you don’t build up more than one layer. (Light is pic 3, minimal multi-colored pattern show through in pic 4) The two ribbon book marks are a game changer for me. Price is amazing for what you are getting. I consider these far superior to moleskin for half the price. Page count is great. I have been using the same one as a commonplace (so writing a blurb or two almost every day, give or take) since January ‘26 and am only a little more than halfway through. Lays flat and is still in like new condition even as I throw it in my bag, bring to the beach, etc. (last two photos) Great color selection that is true to the image provided. I can’t say enough good things. I will probably have at least one of these in rotation at all times.

Arrived on time in perfect condition. Just as described: smooth, lovely cover; smooth paper, just the right weight, light grid that helps with positioning but doesn’t interfere with drawing or writing; helpful ribbon page markers; handy pocket inside back cover. Thanks for providing a quality product at a very reasonable price.

I love this journal. It's my first dot journal. I use it every morning for my Bible journaling. I would recommend a 0.5mm or slightly smaller. Be cautious with highlighting, as every highlighter I have tried has smeared my pen makes. No bleeding. Easy to flip open and it lays flat. Good amount of pages. My church gives out little pamflit sort of things and they fit almost perfectly on the pages, so I can slip those right in there. Looks and feels nice. Would definitely buy again!

I love these notebooks and have repurchased them multiple times to use as a daily journal. I like how they lay completely flat when open, and the quality is amazing for the price. The pages are thick, each page is numbered, there are more pages than your average journal, and they’re off-white which is nice. My only issue is that I’m not sure if they changed the paper recently? All of a sudden the same pens I’ve been using are bleeding and smudging terribly… does anyone know if a change has been made?? I tend to cut the ribbons off, but that’s just a personal preference. I also like that they have a pen loop so it’s easy to take anywhere. Overall, I love the color variety available, the fair price, and the durability. Great everyday notebook!

The paper in these RETTACY Notebooks is absolutely fantastic. Smooth to the touch, easy on the eyes, and takes fountain pens as well as ballpoint, rollerball, and pencil all like a dream. The ghosting/show-through through is really minimal, and bleed through almost nonexistent (a tiny bit with a really wet fountain pen). Also works nice with Ranger ink stamp - still no bleed through although there is ghosting/show-through. The lining/grid/dot grids is clear but very subtle and non-distracting. (Do note that the lined notebooks (as opposed to grid, dot grid, or blank) to come with "Date" printed in the upper corner of each page). I think these are easily the equal in quality of Midori MD, Clairefontaine clothbound and Premium C.D. - now, all those (and these) have their own minor aesthetic differences (the Midori paper is creamier and a bit toothier, the Clairefontaine and C.D. is much "slicker"; cover differences, etc.) so everyone will have their favorites - but you won't be disappointed on quality - and how can you beat the price!!!! A million times better than Moleskin

Even comes with tabs and dividers. Perfect size and plush cover. I really like the set up of this journal. Look forward to using it. Highly recommend.

Excelente producto, de muy buena calidad; aparte es muy bonito y elegante. Las hojas tienen el grosor ideal para una escritura perfecta. ¡Me encantó!🤗

Perfeito. Igualzinho ao último que comprei. Nem vai parecer que troquei o caderno. 😊

me serviu muito bem, único problema é que a gramatura do papel não suporta marca texto, ele não chega a manchar a próxima folha, mas dá pra ver nitidamente atrás da mesma.

Melhor caderno para Bullet que já comprei! Tem uma construção em material de qualidade; páginas suficientes para abranger um ano todo (seguindo o método de Ryder); local para afixar caneta/lápis e marcadores.
