Stunning 🖤
I'm afraid to do anything in it! I don't want to ruin it with my amateurness!
SOOO PRETTY I LOVE HOW IT MATCHES THE READING JORNALS😩 I need to save up to buy every colour.
I missed the first two but this series is the definition of “if I like it I’ll get it in a different colour”.
I absolutely love the Literati Notebooks. I use them personally as reading journals as the paper quality is so good, I don't need to worry about anything transferring through the pages. I have purchased both the notebooks, kindle sleeves, pens and bookmarks in this style and every single product has been amazing. Cannot recommend any Quirky products enough. As you can tell, I am obsessed!
Beautiful notebook! Bought as a gift and it was loved by the recipient.
I just cannot get over the amazing quality of this journal. Everything from the little details on the front and end pages, the beautiful cover, the ribbon marker, the gilt edging. So we'll put together. I love it!
It was even better in person.
For such a gorgeous journal, the writing experience is terrible: It doesn't lay flat / stay open; and Quirky Cup Collective's own pens smudge like crazy on the paper. You even have to really force the spine to get some pages to stay open long enough to write on them. At this price point, I would have expected a nicer experience actually using the journal. But aesthetics seem prioritized over utility.

LOVE the noir paper - so unusual and fun. Beautiful binding and covers too.
This journal is a thing of beauty. Every detail has been thought of. The paper is superb quality and the cover and binding are strong. I am absolutely thrilled with mine. It’s one of those ‘almost too good to use’ kind of purchases.
I’ll be buying one every year ❤️❤️
This is my first time purchasing from your company and honestly I don’t really know what to expect. I was so incredibly surprised by the amazing quality and I’m almost to scared to write in it😅 I’m definitely going to be getting all my future journals and supplies from you. Thank you for the great experience.
Gorgeous and beautiful quality as usual 😍
The most stunning book I have ever held. The gilding on the pages is a fantastic touch, the pages are nice and think and don’t leak, and the cover is… I genuinely don’t have words to describe how intricate and beautiful the pattern is. Just buy one. Don’t think, just buy.
Love it exactly what I’ve been looking for being able to choose between the different page styles makes a huge difference. Also the cover is stunning and the quality 5+ stars
Amazing notebook! Can’t wait to start using it!
Shipping was quick and the quality is absolutely amazing, absolutely in ove with the journals and will definitely be buying more in the future :D
It was way more beautiful in person! And 220 pages is a dream!!
Quick delivery, high quality notebook, really beautiful design. Bought it as a gift for my friend.
This is the second journal I’ve ordered from the Quirky Cup Collective and I absolutely love this store. The quality of these journals are unreal and look astonishing in hand. This one has become my gym journal and I’ll be ordering a specific reading journal soon once it’s back in stock! Thank you for the lovely shopping experience and I can’t wait to order the next one!
I was wrestling with myself to actually buy a journal from here because international shipping is... expensive. But this journal is worth the literal months long wait and the extra expenses. I love working with ink and HEAVY dark markers in my journals and, despite all my fears it actually stood up to all my initial tests and then blew me away with the paper quality. Nothing shows through the pages, not even big areas covered in heavy black marker bled through. I am incredibly happy with my purchase and I'll be right back to ordering a new one as soon as this one is filled with my art, poems and dreams.
Quick, careful shipping. The journal is immaculate. It was everything id hoped for!
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I adore these journals from the Quirky Cup Collective! If I could give more than five stars, I would! As an author juggling nearly twenty pen names (yes, really), staying organized is a must—and these journals are an absolute lifesaver! They’re not just functional, they're gorgeous!! The covers look like fancy collector’s editions you'd find in a high-end bookshop, and don’t even get me started on the page edges... Every time someone spots one on my desk/shelf, I get instant compliments. The quality is outstanding, the designs are swoon-worthy, and honestly? The price is a steal. I probably shouldn’t say this, but Quirky Cup could easily charge more and I’d still be buying them (just don’t tell them that 😉). I’ve had to limit myself to just one journal a month (or two, if I’m being sneaky) because I want them all. They’re that good. Already counting down the days until I can grab my next two. Seriously, if you’re on the fence: hop off and buy one... or three. Everyone should have these in their lives. 🖤✨
Fast shipping and a quality journal. Would recommend!
The quality is even better than what I expected! The pages are crisp and so thick and the cover? Wow, the cover is gorgeous! Love love love!
I absolutely ADORE these journals. They are my absolute favourite and whenever I run out of space I immediately come back to get another. The quality of them are amazing
slay queen. only journal i’ll ever use.
This notebook is perfection! Thank you for your creations! <3
