I buy Moleskine journals for writing and as project notebooks, and their quality always impresses me. The size and layout of the extra large, squared page Cahier journals makes them perfect for documenting projects and for sketching quick layouts and designs. Further, the high quality paper does not yellow over time. I would highly recommend these notebooks to anyone.

I am a big fan of Moleskine.

These notebooks are excellent. They are thin enough that you can tuck them into a book and you won't even notice you have it.

The paper holds up to any type of ink.

Just be warned about Moleskine's sizing. X-Large is a standard size composition type book. It is not a legal page size or something I would consider x-large. So if you want a standard 8 1/2 by 11 size notebook, this is it. ( not sure if it is exactly 8 1/2 by 11 ).

Apparently Large in Moleskine's vocabulary is a smaller notebook that standard US sizes.

There is a back pocket to hold a few papers.. And the last 10 pages or so are perferated so you can take them out without tearing up the binding.

I use these for class and reading notes in my doctoral program, and love the feel and smoothness of the pages. They're a good size, don't add a ton of bulk to my bag, and have a few tear-out pages, which are convenient for last minute to-dos or scrap paper. I have to admit, I'm a bit of a nut for organization, so I really appreciate the squared version of these journals.

My one complaint is that the paper tends to bleed through with most gel pens (hence the four stars).

If you haven't given these notebooks a shot yet, they're worth the extra money. Invest in something that will last and you'll enjoy.
