I'm over half way thru this sketchbook, I'm not that happy with this book, the two things that bother me the most is how dirty looking the cardboard cover looks, I carry my sketchbooks everywhere and draw in them daily, they don't live on a book shelf. The hand*book journals have cloth covers that don't show dirt from use even when carried around for 3 or 4 months per book. My other issue is the lack of an elastic band to hold the book closed... I use two larger binder clips to hold it closed and to try to minimize the paper buckling. On the positive side I love the paper in this journal, nice bright white, smooth and nice to draw on.. I use Fabriano watercolor paper so I know and love their paper. I don't think I'll be buying any more of their sketchbooks though unless I see that they've made a couple of changes (in the cover and closure).
