LemomeGrid Paper Notebook/Journal Hardcover Classic Notebook with Pen Holder - Thick Premium Paper + Page Dividers Gifts 8.4 x 5.7 in

I’ve been purchasing these note books for a few years now (grid dots and grid squares for my bullet journaling and lined for university notes). I plan to continue purchasing them for years to come as long as they remain in stock. They are very durable and you can only see the smallest amount of ware on the edges and corners but you probably couldn’t tell unless you were looking at it next to a new one. I’ve shown pictures of my 2019 journal next to the new one I bought this week to start my 2020. As you can see there is very little difference even though I have carried this book around for a full year and used it extensively in art workshops, travel, day to day commuting. It gets quite a bit of bashing.Each book comes with a pen loop on the spine (and I love how they look lined up on a shelf), an elastic strap to keep it closed, a bookmarking ribbon, a small pocket in the back to keep bits of paper, a front page to write your name and a set of six sticky divider tabs (I would like to have been given 12 as I use mine as a diary and need the 12 months but If you’re using it for other uses like note taking etc then 6 might be fine or you might not use them at all)Another thing I really like about these note books is the grey lines and the off white paper. I struggle to focus on harsh white/black white/blue note paper so I find these really beautiful to work with. They also make it good for drawing/painting over as the line are soft enough to not stand out through your art work. The paper itself is also a really lovely thickness and doesn’t bleed unless you’re using really inky pens like sharpies. the pens I use are brush pens (Newdoer) and the paper can handle them well unless I start going quite heavy with dark colours.The size of the book is quite nice and it easily slips into my messenger bag and I can do a small monthly calendar on one page or a bigger one over two depending on my needs that month.Overall, I definitely recommend these books and will personally be buying more as I like the little collection I’ve gathered on my book shelf and want to keep it up. I think that they will be so lovely to look back on in a couple decades and because of their high quality I know that they will last that long.Thank you!

I purchased this notebook in 2018 where soon after purchasing, even at that point felt it was the best notebook I ever purchased. Now, in 2021, I am coming back here to say it is still the best notebook I have ever used. The price is super competitive, even much more expensive notebooks don't compare (looking at a certain brand that begins with 'M'). The actual design is superb and after all these years has held up it's colour and still very sturdy, the pages are the perfect shade and a dream to glide over (I actually ordered the grid paper by accident instead of dotted, but grew to really like the grid format), the pen loop has not worn out at all, the notebook always gets attention asking where I got it from. One of the things I appreciated most is how well the pages lay flat when writing.If Lemome can sustain the quality and incredibly competitive price, this will without doubt remain the best notebook you can buy. Whatever you need a notebook for, get this one, you will not be disappointed.

I bought my second Lemome Notebook/Journal, this time with grid paper instead of dotted pages.After a couple weeks, there is already a gap in the binding between left and right pages, in my notebook between across pages 15 (left) and 16 (right).As I have already been using the notebook up to page 23 and the inside of the rear cover, I will have to find a way to stop the gap getting worse, eg with strong transparent tape.Looking at my first Lemome Notebook/Journal, i see there was a a gap at about the same point plus approximately every 15/16 pages. I assume this is due to the page sheets being bound and glued for every 16 pages +8 sheets.The paper quality and the end covers are excellent.Maybe I need to try a ring-binder, but that would take up too much space in a pocket

I was looking for a new bullet journal. I had been looking at lots of brands and I came across this, I loved the style of it. And the price at £8.99 is almost to good to be true. I was a little dubious due to the price but when it arrived, wow! I am so impressed. It is extremely high quality, the cover is lovely, I love the contrasting grey spine. The pages are really thick, very high quality paper. I chose the gridded option. There's a pocket on the back page for any bits and bobs you need to keep safe. I am very pleased with this book and I will be using this company for each bullet journal from now on. I was using a leuchtterm 1917, I found this brand is not only a lot cheaper but is much better quality!

Update: it appears they have changed the design of the notebook. The pen loop is now in the middle of the spine (which makes no sense for an average sized pen!) The cover feels cheaper, the stitching is not contrast and does not look as even. Overall, it just does not look or feel as nice or good quality as it used to. Very disappointing, and I hope they go back to the old design. Switched notebook brands because of the changes.Old review: The grid lines up well between pages and the notebook seems well made. I was originally hesitant to buy it because of brown grey color scheme, but it looks much better than the pictures. The pages lay flat, though some of the inner pages need extra pressure at the spine/page binding at first. There is some slight bleed-through with my staedtler fineliner pens, but much less than most notebooks.

I needed a bullet journal that was solid enough for me to cart it around in my bag all year, flexible enough for the pages to fold open for me to draw tables and charts in, with small-ish squares, paper thick enough that ink doesn't show through the other page, and ideally space for a pen. And, no inspirational quotes/weird layouts/naff design. This is it! Will be ordering another when this runs out.

I bought this book to help me record knitting projects and wanted graph paper for drawings and to record measurements.Its a lovely sturdy book and I would definitely recommend it for its quality. Ideal for using as a travelling notebook.
