A reader pointed me to Baron Schwartz’s excellent comparison of a lot of different notebook brands he tried while searching for “the Holy Grail of notebooks.” Here’s some of them, along with his handy list of what they are:

1. An Italian leatherette journal by Markings
2. A Semikolon Il Creativo, large
3. A Quo Vadis Habana
4. An iPad for size perspective ;-)
5. A PaperBlanks journal
6. A Peter Pauper Press journal
7. Another PaperBlanks journal
8. A Mead Cambridge notebook
9. A deconstructed journal by Studio Oh!
10. A Whitelines Squared notebook
11. A Clairefontaine notebook
12. A Barnes & Noble journal refill
13. A Leuchtturm 1917 notebook
14. A Moleskine notebook
15. A Chameleon Like notebook
16. A Semikolon Il Creativo, small
17. A (small) Chameleon Like notebook
18. A teNues CoolNotes notebook

The exhaustive comparison gives him extra addict points!
