This is the third journal I’ve purchased from Dingbats, and I love it so much! I use them to keep track of what I read throughout the year. I love how high quality the journals are, so I can use whatever pens or markers in them without worrying about them bleeding through. I can’t recommend them enough!

There was a hiccup with shipping, but the Dingbats team was so helpful in straightening it out. I am very pleased with my journal! Thank you :)

All perforated, high quality pages, excellent design, perfect size, sustainably made, and all goes to a good cause. What’s not to love?

Their customer service is top notch! They care about their customers and are quick to respond. Also, their products are made with care! The covers on their journals have rich color and the paper quality is awesome! As a professor I travel for my job and the journals are tough! Thank you, Dingbats!

Shipping was fast. Came in perfect condition. I love the shade of green of the cover. The pages are creamy and sturdy. I love writing on them with my G-2 Pilot pens. I've almost finished my other dingbats journal, it barely shows any signs of wear, though the bookmark ribbon came out halfway through filling it.

I love these notebooks! The paper quality is nice.

This is one of the only notebooks that I can find that has everything I need. I need numbered pages, an index, pocket, and pen holder. It has everything. I wish there were more color options because true journalese go through the selection offered pretty quickly.

I love these journals and will buy again

I have used many notebooks from Dingbats both series and different sizes. Very high quality, prices are reasonable and products are delivered in a timely manner. Would definitely recommend.

I’ve bought four of these over the years and I love the quality !

Quality paper, binding... Great you write in

Great notebook. Got it as a gift for my dad for Father's day, he loved it. He joked that it was too nice to write in. My mom was jealous and liked it so much, I got her one too!

I just ordered and received my fourth A5+ notebook from Dingbats, and after having tried many other popular brands (Molskine, Leuchtturm, Archer & Olive, among others), I can say with complete conviction that these are by far the best. The paper quality is perfect; it's the perfect weight (not too thin, not too thick), and it's the perfect color (a really lovely gentle cream color). The dots of the dot grid are the perfect size and darkness, small and light enough to be completely unobtrusive and yet dark enough to be perfectly visible. The dots are perfectly set on the page, as if someone took the time to test what the best margins on the edges of the paper should be. The size of A5+ gives me just enough more width that the notebook fits more writing (but not too much more writing) and is simultaneously more aesthetically pleasing than a "regular" A5. In the Wildlife collection, all of the pages are perforated (yes, all of them), which feels like a luxury until you've had one of these notebooks and it becomes a necessity. The pages actually do lie flat (some companies lie about this; Dingbats does not).

I use these notebooks for everything from writing poems to charting out knitting patterns to taking notes in class to pouring my heart out when I need to work some stuff out in my personal life.

TL;DR: These notebooks are durable, beautiful, eco-friendly, and addictive. You should get one.

This is my 2nd purchase from Dingbats because I loved the first notebook I bought and I am just as happy with the second one.

So classy, so smooth to write in, beautiful color, I love this thing!!!
