## Description

Moleskine Classic Plain Paper Notebook, Hard Cover and Elastic Closure Journal, Color Black, Size Large 13 x 21 cm, 240 Pages : Moleskine: desertcart.co.uk: Stationery & Office Supplies

Review: First time with Moleskine- Not bad at all. - I am an English Language student and I feel naked without a good journal or writing pad to my side. Previously I have found Pukka Pad writing pads and journals to be quite good. Moleskine appear to be very well praised for their journals- I am happy with this product. Arrived in two days. The Moleskine I received is not what appears in the product picture which looks as if it has some light coloured pattern, but rather it is plain black with a subtly leather look and feel. I prefer blank pages, and especially creamy coloured blank pages. I am using either a ball point Parker pen or a Uniball Jetstream 0.7. The paper is smooth to write on (considering you also have a good pen, I've heard that Moleskine paper may not be as friendly with a fountain pen. Look it up). There is 'ghosting', where the writing can be seen on the next page. I have no qualms with this but some people may do, so it's worth mentioning. In the back of the notebook is a pocket to keep stray sheets of paper or whatnot. Handy, I use these often with other notebooks. Over all, good size and it's quite comfortable to write in, it lays rather flat and does not fight back when you lay it flat to write. I am very particular with my journals as I often intend to keep them for a long time (a year or so) and they often contain important ideas and plans. I am not intending to join the Moleskine fan club that I see on the net where people will swear and live by the name as if it provides them oxygen- I am simply only interested in a functional product. This is a nicely made notebook and I am happy to pay the price I paid as it does not feel cheap at all. Edit: Since writing this review I have began to use a Uni Pin fine line 0.5 pen. It is a good compliment to the Moleskine paper, smooth action that glides, doesn't blotch or bleed, nor show through the page anymore than a regular ballpoint. Edit 6/2/16: The book mark ribbon is starting to fray quite a bit. My Pukka pad's bookmark didn't after a yer of use.
Review: Indispensible - I originally bought the large ruled notebook, but found that the line spaces were a little on the narrow side for me. Having now got hold of the plain version, it's obvious that this is the one I should have bought in the first place; I much prefer a blank space rather than blank lines. But each to their own. Having used mine for a few weeks, I can find no fault with the classic Moleskine design or the quality of the workmanship. I like the off-white paper which is neither too thin or too thick. The overall size of this notebook - rather than the pocket version - is perfect, neither too large or too small. And there are enough pages to store my genius ideas or inane ramblings for a long time, if not years. If you tend to jot things down on scraps of paper, as I do, you can either stuff them in the expandable pocket at the back or between the pages - and the elastic keeper will prevent anything falling out. In short, it's a joy to own and use. I've seen other notebooks that might be 'finer' (and more expensive) but this is a supremely practical notebook designed for heavy, every day use by the thinkers of the species. And it's unlikely to fall apart after a couple of months as cheaper notebooks do. I wouldn't be without mine. Long live Moleskine. Note: The desertcart description states that this notebook, and others in the Moleskine range, are leather bound. Well, mine isn't. It's 'merely' hardback. But don't let that put you off. Personally, it makes no difference to me.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how many pages?**
A: The pages aren't numbered but it looks to hold about the same amount as a composition notebook of 100 pages. They are thick pieces of paper.

**Q: How many moles is this?**
A: This has one book included.

**Q: do G2 pens bleed through?**
A: I use G2 pens exclusively with my Moleskine and I don't find that they bleed through, BUT there is some ghosting, particularly with the 0.7 or thicker. The 0.38 is good and doesn't have any bleeding or ghosting but it is too fine a point for my preference so I use the 0.5 and that's a happy compromise. Ghosting is negligible, bleed through non-existent... BUT, to be perfectly, candid, I am almost done with my Moleskine and I won't buy another one. Partly because the paper isn't really conducive to any type of pen other than a rollerball (ugh): I primarily use fountain pens and the Moleskine is horrible for those and the gel pens (I only use G2 when I use a gel pen) leaves little globs of gel on the paper so I do get a lot of smudging. Doesn't happen with my Rhodia books (my preference) or the couple of STM (Scribbles that Matter) books I've tried.

**Q: Does this open to lay flat? Do you need anything to hold it down so it lays flat when opened?**
A: It lays flat once it's been opened a few times. I don't remember having any issues with mine when I bought it, and I have it with me right now!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful quality
*by T***M on 22 April 2013*

I keep journals at work where I take meetings notes, jot down ideas and sketches and other things I need to remember. I like to keep them in rather sturdy books that I keep on my bookshelf for future reference. This is very practical. I often find myself going back to check discussions and ideas from years back when this is needed -- which is surprisingly often. I realize this sounds a bit backwards in these days of electronic tablets, but it is not at all a matter of being conservative. I often mix sketches and text in my notes, and this is extremely difficult to do quickly on a tablet. Writing "manually" also keeps my handwriting from degrading to that of a third grader (increasingly common these days). And very few people are likely to steal a notebook from a meeting room while you are out to fetch a cup of coffee, whereas a computer... When I started using this Moleskine variety I immediately found several benefits. First, the book is bound in a way that makes it possible to open it flat on the table without it closing itself -- very practical when you need to use the notes as a support for writing something up on the computer later. Other books tend to break in the back when you have done this a couple of times. The Moleskine is also lightweight compared to my previous hardbound notebooks, which makes it easier to carry around in a backpack. It has a practical bookmarker string and a pocket in the back for keeping handy things like paper clips and business cards. Finally, while realizing it may not be the major reason to buy one, I must say the paper quality is very good and the leather cover is nice to touch, and this adds to the wonderful experience of using these notebooks. I recommend you to indulge in one. I am not going back.
