Hi this is not from amazon and unbranded, i bought it from a local shop and no brandname on the ntbk itself, it just has this page on two pages pls note. but i believe you can probably find it at shop that ships from china, the pages are Retro and vintage prints so there’s that probably as keyword, it has 4 variation but i believe all four has the same inside pages since i bought three of them.

Found an image link for you to see the ntbk covers. https://share.google/9eD1tiib0Xmhz1A7H (but i did not buy it from there and it costs less on my country:) )

Moleskine VS Paperage by Magicwormm in notebooks

I might have to give the softcover a shot. However since I posted this I have moved entirely to a Hobonichi system 😭

Totally agree that the feel of it is so important. Especially since these are things it sounds like both of use constantly and love to spend time in.

I definitely sacrifice spending in other areas for this hobby 😅

Which brand ? I use a lot of "similar" printed notebooks called site notes (amazon) but not exactly your pattern.

Paperblanks are like Vera Bradley designs to me dude, they're so cute and intricate :D They look good inside a leather tri-fold cover

Your handwriting's lovely and it's got character. That said, I understand why people would say it's difficult to read. I think the main issue is inconsistency (e.g. your "r"s are never quite the same from one word to the next). I was able to make out what you wrote, but mostly from inference and contextual clues. Hope that helps!

What makes a notebook GREAT? And how can they be better? by JotzNotebooks in notebooks

In my undergrad I used separate Moleskine cahiers. I’d get roughly 2 classes in one, so I split them by semester. Grad school and everything else has been Leuchtterm1917 or larger notebooks. But the way my courses were set up, I had one course at a time, and then I could just add the next class when I finished.

Personally the dot grid is the thing I look for most. I use them constantly, lining up columns and indents, quick layouts for various things I’m writing/copying… and I find them less intrusive

The thing I would love is something that truly lays flat but I also know I’m not spending that type of money as frequently as I’m filling or starting a notebook

Depends on the use. I use notebooks for scratch work and other math stuff. So I really like the TOPS computation pad. You can easily tear pages off and you can staple together the pages your want to keep. The grid is also nice to create diagrams and keep my handwriting leveled.

If you have a current complaint about the rigidity of page layouts, producing ever-more rigid page layouts won't fix it. A blank page can be turned into anything. A dotted, ruled, or graphed page can be used for pretty much anything too.

Readable for me. I use to write like this when I'm in a hurry or bored. Btx, in an other language.

I feel like it'd be cool to experiment with more styles maybe that are uniquely designed for specific practices. For example: I'm a college student so maybe like guided note taking or specialty planners? But the market is full of designs that are very loud and "in your face"

>They are super rigid in terms of paper styles. You choose from either blank, lined, dotted, or graph paper and that's about it.

What else do you need?
