### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ High Quality & Strong Binding
*by J***S on December 26, 2025*

perfect notebook. ink doesn’t bleed through and the notebook is exceptional quality for the cost. moleskine is the only journal i’ll use.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Addition to Journal Line
*by J***E on June 22, 2020*

I want to follow up on the reviews saying the paper quality has gone down. It's not a quality issue, it's a page weight issue. The normal Moleskine journals use a heavier weight of paper. This expanded journal requires a lighter page weight because of the thickness of the spine. 400 pages is a behemoth when it comes to journals. Reducing the page weight reduces the heaviness of the journal itself while still maintaining the high-quality binding and cover. That said, I've filled 300 pages of this journal in just over a month and I'm already ordering my next. I don't think I will ever go back to the standard versions. I've been using the lined expanded with G2 pens and it's been the perfect combination. I've even used BIC Briteliners over the G2 ink with minimal ghosting. I own fountain pens (and love to use them) but I experienced ghosting on the standard journals. With the page weight in mind, I simply won't use them here knowing the page thickness isn't the same. I love what Moleskine has done and hope this line is here to stay. I'll try to experiment with a soft cover soon, but I love the hardcover with how thick this spine is. I sincerely hope this helps clarify! Happy writing!
