It’s true that “Blank and lined journals can be found almost anywhere”, but Redbubble is my go-to for these, as they have thousands of user-created cover designs available. I own about two dozen different ones and I like the quality. The spiral-binding and covers are very durable, and the pages are a good weight. They include a pocket page in the rear for any loose notes that you want to keep within your journal, and I think they are 120 pages.

You can also make your own design and sell it to the public, or place it in a private store for personal purchase or gifting to friends. I’ve done the private route and it’s easy to do. I just bought a dozen of a personal design for Christmas presents. In your own private store you can set your $ markup (your commission) to zero and buy at cost for yourself, even cheaper if you find a Redbubble sale. (If you sell to the public, you would leave a $ markup for your commission.)

PS- I’ve been talking about the spiral-bound notebooks but they’ve recently added 128-page hardbound journals to their offerings, which I’m trying on my next purchase. I have nothing to do with Redbubble, but I’m a huge fan of their notebooks. I use them for different things, writing notes and journals, travel notes and planning, reading notes, notes-to-self, random thoughts, you name it.

I cannot believe the creativity and range of these journals. They would become heirlooms and treasures.

Whoa! These are gorgeous! I LOVE the idea of a reading journal for kids too. What a great way to spend time with what you've read! So creative and immersive.
