I've used journal books for several years. I first found the Markings journal by accident while looking for another well-known brand. I was immediately impressed with the quality, from the cover to the binding and the paper. I use fountain pens almost exclusively for writing, and the journals work exceptionally well with all of them from medium to very fine points. The 3 by 5-inch size is handy to carry wherever I go so I always have somewhere to jot down notes. They are my first choice whenever I need a new journal. You won't find a better quality book for the price. I recommend them without reservation.

Returned to school and found large notebooks awkward. This small notebook with cloth marker and elastic strap to keep closed fits in shirt or hip pocket. Fits my style perfectly. I fear that this might mean the company will drop this product in the future. Happens frequently with me!

Recently attended birthday party, this person was reasonably the hardest person to buy for. I got her two date books and a 3x5 mini journal.
She sent me a note thanking me for the best and most useful gift a business woman can use.

I discovered these a couple of years ago and immediately threw out my cheep spiral bound paper covered notebooks. They fit very well in my work pants and wool shirt pockets. I preferred the sketch/rule version and wish you still had the additional colors, burgundy and green. I liked the variety. I have had one elastic let go, but other than that they have held up very well.

For the past two and a half years I've had one of these notebooks in my back pocket. That means I sit on it. It gets wet. It gets dirty. It gets a LOT of wear. The leather cover keeps all my notes safe, dry, and fireproof. The binding wears over the course of a month or so, but the elastic band keeps it together. The best notebooks in the market. DO NOT BY MOLESKINES!!!! They are flimsy Chinese trash compared to this sturdy pocket notebook.

I bought 3 packs of 2 of these journals from Target years ago on sale. I gave one away and have used the others. Each day I write 21 things I am grateful for. I will finish with book 5 in 6 weeks which will be 20,160 gratitude statements since Jan 2012!!! I am so pleased I can order more. Mine had the spot for the initial on the front cover but that is a small matter. Thank you for making such a wonderful product. I felt compelled to write this review :)
