The perfect balance between a little snag and the smoothness of writing
The paper allows you to write comfortably while still experiencing your writing taste.
The Binding:
The notebook opens 188 degrees full for stress-free writing.
It uses a "thread cobbling" that is easy to open and has a durable finish.
The focus of "design"
MD notebooks do not have a cover because you want the comfort of writing and the innocent charm of the material.
It has an excellent opening without the bad opening or rattling of a notebook.
Includes index stickers.
It comes with an indexing seal that matches the look of a solid cover only with a cheesecloth tip.
Printed with frequently used IDEA and DIARY The rest is blank stickers that you can fill in and use.
It also serves as a great way to secure the spin.

1) opens fairly flat, which is helpful
2) pages are good quality. Definitely can't withstand sharpie or double highlighting, but for my purposes it's just fine. (Pages are kind of cream colored)
3) love the grid. It's light blue and actually seems like it's made more for aligning Japanese characters (makes sense) but the way the squares don't completely touch (see pic) makes it easier for me to avoid losing what line I'm on.
4) there are small notches every 10 squares, and every two squares along the sids of the grid, which make it easy to break pages into bigger grids (e.g.: drawing out a calendar)
5) the grid is actually centered on the page so there is a bit of blank room on the edges of the pages, great for writing headers so I immediately see where I am on a page
6) this sounds weird, but this book SMELLS fantastic. Like a peppery, new pages kind of smell.
Cons:
1) card stock covers are flimsy and will easily dirty, so consider getting a plastic covering or something. It does come with a wax paper cover, but it doesn't offer much protection
2) I wouldn't necessarily call this a con, but the notebook does instruct you to reinforce the bookmark it has with a little piece of tape becauseof the way it's attached.
3) UPDATE: Depending on the pen you use, the ink WILL smudge if highlighted or touched too soon after writing. I've noticed that when I use felt tip markers this isn't an issue, but when I use a roller ball Precise 5 Pentel pen (the ones you can get at Staples) it smudges anytime I highlight, so it's really a process of trial and error. Also, pencil takes very well to the paper (which for me is a pro).

The pages are thick and smooth. I have not experienced any feathering or bleeding with any of my fountain pen/ink combinations and the texture is lovely under the nib. I have also used Flair felt-tipped marker pens, Pilot Precise V-5 rollerballs, colored pencils, and a Sharpie with an EF tip. Only the Sharpie bled through the page. However, the coating on the paper makes it so that ink takes an excessively long time to dry, even longer than Rhodia or any other paper I've used. Some inks wouldn't dry at all, even when left open overnight, and I have to use blotter paper to soak up the excess. Most inks dry after a minute or so, but it makes it hard to jot down a quick note on the go, as I have to wait to close the book. That is, however, my only complaint about it, and the only reason for 4 stars instead of 5.
Other than that, the notebook has good construction, the grid on each page is even and useful. The pages open nice and flat. The cream-colored pages are soft and pleasant, and the grid is a nice shade of blue, not too light or dark. The ribbon bookmark is slim, which I like, as it never gets in the way. Overall, I really like the notebook, but I think a slightly more absorbent paper might be a better choice for a bullet journal in the future.
The notebook is A5 paper, so it is smaller than I am used to for marble notebooks. But this is an advantage to me, because they are are lighter, and when you have to carry it around on your back almost every day, this matters!
In addition to weight, I like how sturdy the notebook is. Most of my notebooks (spiral or marble) get destroyed by the end of the semester. The materials that make up the binding on this notebook seem much more durable, so it should last, and I can write on it with my fountain pen.
The notebook comes with a book-marker built in to the spine. This will reduce all the page flipping I have to do when I have to find where I last left off in lecture. Yes, I know I can just buy separate book-markers, but this one will not fall out, or get lost!
Just a side note, the squares are actually kind of small, at 0.25" (about 6mm), and they do not cover the entire page like most graph paper notebooks. There are margins on all 4 sides.
Just to summarize why I love this notebook:
-Good quality binding
-Lightweight
-Margins
A lot of marble notebooks come with a reference tables, multiplication tables...etc on the covers. This notebook does not contain any lookup tables of sorts. It is very plain with just a inside cover page for your name.

I'm also a fan of the minimalist look. It's a soft cover, so I'm typically keeping it in a leather folio.
