I got a Moleskine about a month ago (the 5×8.5″ ruled version,) and have to say it’s the most amazing I’ve had yet. Here are 5 reasons why I’m loving it so much.

5. Design

The notebook just looks great…it’s simple and very professional looking.

4. Paper Quality

The Moleskine paper is just a joy to write on. It doesn’t rip or tear easily, and the nicely rounded corners turn easily.

3. Durability

The cover is sturdy, the elastic band keeps everything together…what more is there to say? My Moleskine goes almost everywhere with me, and it still looks great.

2. Back pocket

The back pocket is one of the things I like most. I can hold different cards and papers like library book lists or post-its. When school was in session, I put hall passes in the pocket, too.

1. Organization

Before I got my Moleskine, I tried several methods for my to-do list; some were computer-based (such as Remember the Milk) and some were written (scraps of paper, small pads of paper, etc.) Nothing really worked. Now, with my Moleskine, I have my to-dos, important things to remember, and other notes with me all the time. The bookmark is handy too!

I’m interested to see what others use their Moleskines for, too.
