(Along with a new fountain pen, an upgrade to cheap ballpoints). I like the built in page marker and elastic closing that is handy for attaching your pen to. The paper is only 10msg higher quality however this makes a markable difference which is definitely worth the upgrade . I admit the lack of a margin put me off at first though I seem to be able to keep myself aligned. I use this for a fountain pen and please to report there is minimal (if any) feathering and it does not bleed through the page. For the full price of near £7-£8, this is too expensive however. I bought two more on Spring Sale for £5 which is a better price however I will be re-assessing the worth when I am due to buy more books. ## Frequently Bought Together - Amazon Basics Classic Lined Notebook, 240 Pages Hardcover, 5 x 8.25-Inch, Black - KJV Holy Bible, Pew and Worship Bible Red Letter Edition Hardcover - Ribbon Marker, King James Version, Black (KJV Pew and Worship Editions) - Pilot, G2 Premium Gel Roller Pens, Fine Point 0.7 mm, Blue, Pack of 4 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/50452888-classic-notebook-a5-plain-black](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/50452888-classic-notebook-a5-plain-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-01*
