The week-in-view opposite a lined page works extremely well for me. As good as it is, it is too small for my needs. Materials and workmanship are excellent, especially for what amounts to an expendable item (you'll be getting a new one every year, right). The soft cover may or may not be an issue for you. Once you start using it, you'll always have at least seven months worth of planning Space available to you (assuming you buy your new one at the end of May). Moleskine quality is excellent. But might not be too small for you. Hence three rather than five stars.
E. The 13 1/2cm by 21 cm version is much better suited to my needs, handwriting, and eyesight. M. Excellent tool for planning if you don't use an electronic gadget. The 18 month book is also excellent as it allows for a much more practical planning timeframe. I'm still undecided, but leaning toward the hard cover, as I use mine as a surface to write on sometimes.
I can use this daily for 12 months, including carrying it around in a rucksack, without wearing it out. This one, however, is the pocket size. Didn't effect my rating, but might effect your decision.And it might be a five star planner for you. Van Court
I found this notebook in my local bookstore and figured since school would be starting and I would be leaving the lazy days of summer behind I should stay organized. The folder in the back is great for papers and the bookmark helps me find what day it is. This planner is a perfect size to fit in my bag and even my pocket. The idea of having the weeks on one side and a place for notes on the other dismisses crowded calenders and makes everything easier to look at. The weekly spaces are large enough to accommodate any hand writing. This product is great for those who want to stay organized and look good doing it.
I also like the pocket that is in the back of the planner, its just big enough to fit a 3X5 index card. Its pocket size, I need it to remind me of a few things that I need to do. I have been using this weekly planner for about two weeks now and I found it to be very useful. I use the index cards to store useful information such as phone numbers. If you are one that needs to write and keep track of a whole bunch of things, you may want to opt for the next size up. I was a bit apprehensive about getting the soft cover but turns out its pretty durable. Its very simple and for that reason it is extremely useful. Good buy overall.
I am 62 years old and this is the best planner I have ever used. Love that it lies flat, has a place marker ribbon, has nice thin pages while still being quite durable, and a band that keeps all the pages together. Also size fits into any of my purses. Really perfect.
It has 11 blank pages at the end labeled Notes, and in the front are a few pages with general references such as holidays around the world, measurement equivalents, A calender with moon phases, which are also shown in the weekly calendar and more. They will not fall out.
I was late at looking for a planner so being midway through the year this was a great option. Now, I will need the 12 month 2010, but I was mentioning to my children how much I have come to love this notebook.
I have had this weekly notebook for the last year- I have the 2008/2009 edition that started in July 2008 going through Dec 2009. Like the other moleskine notebooks it has the same wonderful features of a fabric bookmark, elastic strap to keep it closed, and the expandable pocket on the back cover perfect to keep anything like cards with appointments, receipts etc.
They both mention they were interested so I am buying this for them; they are both in college now. The pocket edition is great for purse or pocket.
I have gradually made use of these excellent features- I forgot about the pocket on the inside of the back cover, perfect for business cards. Great weekly calendar and notebook, I really like the notebook page with each week for additional notes.
