The pages are thick enough to handle wet ink and brush pens without soaking through to the other side, but NOT something as heavy as a sharpie. Tip if you insist on using sharpies: put a bit of washi tape and write on top of the tape; 100% will not soak through. The grid lines are a pleasing light blue that helps keeps my writing in line and doesn't stand out strongly. Overall a great book to start with slapping stickers and washi tape all over.

This is replacing my previous favorite Tomoe River for my daily journaling. I use various fountain pens and inks, and the paper is wonderful with them all. What makes it even better than Tomoe River is that there is very little to no grin through, which makes it easier to write on both sides. I tend to write small-ish, so the line width, which is much thinner than the standard western size, works for me, and the blue grid doesn't bother me at all. Only downside is the high price, comparable to Tomoe River, which is also not the most affordable. May just go with Muji's unlined thin paper notebooks since I tend to go through a lot of paper...

I've been browsing for notebooks for my college courses for awhile, and I came across the Midori MD notebook a few weeks ago by accident. I think I instantly fell in love. This past year I've been getting more into bullet journaling and improving my studying habits by actively taking the time to enjoy my stationary supplies. I think this notebook blows everything else out of the water.There are tons of options for notebooks and journals out there; so don't get me wrong, you might not find this to be your cup of tea. The A5 is relatively small, not necessarily ideal for those who would prefer more space for writing in their professional or personal lives. However, what it lacks in size and thickness, it makes up for in craftsmanship.The MD feels so amazing to hold. Smooth and nicely weighted. Not to mention the best feature of all: the binding that allows it to lay flat. PRAISE the creators of this notebook! This would be perfect for sketching out in the field or for those with an artistic side if you choose the blank version of the notebook. As an engineering student, I prefer the grid version. However, my artistic side is tempted to indulge in the blank version as well.If you are taking any language courses, particularly Asian languages like Mandarin and Japanese, this would be excellent for writing characters and practicing your calligraphy. In fact, I think it was intended for Japanese kanji script.This might not be as cheap as other notebooks, but I love how unique it is. I was willing to pay a little more for something that I had a gut feeling would be crafted nicely and be most efficient at getting me to actually write and pay attention to my notes!I plan on updating this review in a few weeks to give my full opinion, but so far I am impressed. If you're looking for something different from the cheap plastic notebooks you've been using all your life, give this a shot. You might really enjoy it.

These notebooks are simply brilliant and the quality is amazing.Pro's:-The paper is thick enough so that fountain or ink pens do not bleed through.-The paper quality and texture is excellent--no bleeding around the edges or blotching when writing with fountain pens or ink.-Consistent quality--I've ordered 6 of these so far and they are always consistently amazing.-Spine is incredible--folds nice and flat to make writing easy.Con's:--Price is a little steep but I still think it's fair for the quality.

Great notebooks. I bought the 2 pack set. Price is even better. Please give a try to these great notebooks! The size is about right for me. I have an A4 notebook for work related and I use this small A5 for to-do list and some more personal writings. Midori claims that the lack of cover is because they think that the notebook is perfect as it is. I agree BUT at the same time, I am affraid that if you do not buy a cover, will be dirty very soon so I bought a clear cover (not shown on picture). A5 size is 148 x 210 mm (5.8 x 8.3 in).
