Notebook - Lilac

I like the size of the notebook--larger than the Moleskin types but not 8.5x11. It's a happy medium. I also like that it's spiralbound and has a thick cover because I often have to write on my knee which can make other notebooks difficult to manage. I enjoy the high GSM, though the texture of the paper is slightly rougher than I prefer. My biggest complaint, however, is that the lines on the lined pages are awfully dark. The dark ink competes with my writing and makes the page look incredibly busy. I prefer much fainter lines so that they can disappear into the background as I'm writing in the book. I likely won't purchase this notebook again if the lines remain this dark.
