Moleskine Monday: Which Came First?

At some point during the years I’ve been writing this blog, I remember coming across some discussion about whether the “regular” size Moleskine notebook was the pocket size or the large size. Many people consider the large size to be the default, and I’ve seen customer reviews on Amazon where people give the pocket notebooks … Continue reading Moleskine Monday: Which Came First?

Review & Giveaway: Nuuna Notebooks

Nuuna is a new brand of notebooks made in Germany by Brandbook.

(Now that’s good marketing.) So, let’s take a look… … Continue reading Review: Ecosystem Notebook

Review: Scribe Notebook

Today I’m reviewing yet another variant on the basic black notebook that has become so ubiquitous. This time, it’s the Scribe Plain Notebook. An initial impression of this notebook might suggest that it’s just like a Moleskine, but I actually found it more similar to the Pen & Ink notebook I reviewed here, or some … Continue reading Review: Scribe Notebook
