### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful Notebook
*by A***H on March 17, 2025*

I'm a published author who loves to write. I've been searching for the perfect purple notebook to write my poetry, and other writings in. I came across these. I'm in love with these notebooks!I love these notebooks because they lay flat on me. The paper is the right quality of thickness. I wish the notebook had more pages, because I love thick notebooks. Other than that I definitely recommend getting this notebook.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LOVE These Journals!
*by J***N on January 1, 2024*

I can't express how much I love these journals.I was skeptical abt buying a lined one. I prefer grids because I can't stand wide lines, and even when a product says the lines are college ruled, they're often too wide for me. I tend to write bigger the bigger the lines, and that often looks sloppy. But for ten bucks, I figured what the heck. Honestly, it was the color selection that initially drew me in. So I ordered the lavender one and wow!The cover is soft, there's slight bend in the journal itself so it's not super rigid, the paper is thick but not so thick the book become cumbersome, the color is gorgeous, and the lines are perfection!I was so excited about this book that I immediately bought the other five colors and then went back and bought a second lavender one. lol These are my new favorite journals, and one day I'll try YRL's other books.There is one slight smidge on their perfection though.Because they're shrink wrapped (which is essential so they arrive in great condition), the cord that wraps around the book leaves an impression. It's doesn't deter from writing in the book or its beauty. It's more of a "me quirk". And a couple of the books have this bump on the cover, near the indentation. It's slightly annoying, but it won't make me not buy these again.My only wish is that there were more colors. I NEED some greens, YRL. More blues and pinks too, please. :)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love these books!!
*by S***S on April 6, 2021*

It may seem silly to like these books as much as I already do, but they're perfect! I've been using spiral bound books with light dots making a grid instead of actual lines. A) I don't need a grid for writing, B) I can hardly see the dots, C) I hate the spiral bind because when I get to the edge of the paper, everything looks like a 2 year-old got a hold of my pen.These lay flat as I write, so I can use the full page (both sides!) and they're lined, so I can keep my writing from trailing off in whatever direction. The covers are sturdy enough to be able to write without a flat surface, but flexible enough that I don't worry about the board breaking or otherwise getting damaged.I also love that they come in a variety of colors - I have a couple for work purposes, and I'm definitely going to get at least one for personal stuff. I couldn't be happier with the product!!
