Busy Life Notebook - A6 Rose Gold with Stickers and Pocket

Lovely little notebook. Just the right size for what I wanted it for (about the height of a standard pen).The pages are good quality paper, with two place marker ribbons and elastic to keep ut closed which personally I like as it keeps it closed if carried in my handbag.Overall a cheery quality notebook.

Good little book, but on a personal level, I hate the band around the book.

Beautiful colour and perfect size. I particularly like that it has not one but two ribbon placemarks..as every notebook/diary/journal should! The stickers are also quite handy.

No complaints. 5/5. Well presented and good quality

Nice book but over priced

I have both the 2019 A5 diary and the freestanding desk calendar (which is excellent, see my reviews of both), and needed something smaller for my handbag for notes.This is beautiful, as expected from this brand. The colour is a lovely, vibrant, bright sunshine yellow, and it has a look and feel of leather. It's made from quality faux leather like its big brother diary and I can confirm that the cover is very durable.This isn't a bad item. It's more a notebook for use for things like lists or something you want to write on and rip out to give to someone; its sheets are perforated so they tear out easily and yet they won't come apart without a good tug. But, this could just have been a regular jotter pad or a pad that you attach to the fridge to make notes and rip the sheets off (I had one, loved it). But for the same price of as the diary and the calendar, this isn't quite worth it.There is a small pocket at the back (only; the calendar and diary have several dotted throughout) and the stickers are useless, tbh - they're more like stickers that kids would dot all over their workbooks.I do like it, but it's not the best Busy Bee product or the most useful.

Let me start with the only downside, on the item I received the perforations were a bit hit or miss on the pages so they could be tricky to remove without tearing.The size is perfect for an inside jacket pocket or clutch bag. I liked the lemon yellow cover and light blue pages, it looked cheerful. The paper is good quality and easy to write on, even with a fountain pen. The line spacing is sensible, you don't need to write in tiny letters.There's nothing printed on the pages, so you're free to mark page #, date etc. to suit yourself. With the two ribbons you could use the notebook for home and work. The various sticker could be useful, some are metallic, however they can't be peeled off and re-used without losing their 'stickiness'.A little pricey compared to Moleskin notebooks of the same size/capacity.

The bright yellow cover of this notebook will really put a smile on your face, and the navy edging to the pages looks cool. It's handy to be able to keep the notebook closed with the elasticated strap if you are putting it in to your bag. The lined paper inside (dark blue lines) is of a decent quality, and it's useful to be able to remove the pages if you wish to do so. The addition of stickers is a nice additional touch. If you know someone who adores stationery, then this would make a good gift. One thing which would have been a nice addition is printed page numbers, although it is easy enough to add these yourself if you need them.
