Customer Reviews:
great baby journal!.......2007-08-28
This is a great journal. So cute. I looked at and bought many of these and this is the best one. Not too much detail but enough..easy to write it. Pockets for keepsakes. Came with scrapbooking picture frames for photos. I can't say enough good things!!
This book is great!.......2007-08-27
I was looking for a baby book that would provide some versatility with what could be written. This book delivered. The pages had things like "some thoughts about before you were born" as opposed to "this is how I found out I was pregnant" - etc. It gives you a lot of room to write, but isn't overwhelming. It is cute, fun, and a great value for the price. Highly recommend!
Great overall baby journal.......2007-08-20
i was skeptical about buying this because of what i read from the reviews about it having bible versus and being a somewhat religious baby journal. i do not consider myself religious by any means and none of the versus or quotes bothered me at all. yeah it does say a few things about heaven and being gifts from god and such but its nothing too extreme. if you're a pessimist when it comes to religion then you might not approve. it had places for everything i had wanted to remember for my daughter, and overall i like it very much.super cute.
Very cute with great pages.......2007-08-13
I have enjoyed this book very much so far. There are all the "good" pages for baby memories and none of the frivilous ones, plus it goes out a few years.
WARNING.......2007-08-07
Please be warned about shipping if you need this item fast!!! Normally when I have chosen super saver shipping, they actually ship the item within 1-2 business days of the order if it is in stock. This appears not to be their policy anymore, so if you want the book fast go to another web site!!!

Best Thing I've Ever Done Was to Buy This Book for My Great Aunt Mary.......2007-09-28
I bought this book of questions for my Great Aunt Mary for her 100th birthday. And like another reviewer said, some of the questions did not apply to her, but, she did answer quite a few of the inquiries, and it was VERY interesting reading to see her answers. She passed away last Christmas at 108 years and 4 months old, and I placed this book out at her funeral for all to read, and everyone loved it. It had so many wonderful stories and quips to tell, all written in Aunt Mary's own hand. It made her memorial even more special. I've been given the book back, and will always treasure it. Aunt Mary and I were always very close, and I miss her very much, but that book brings back memories... I'd recommend this to everyone who wants to know more about other people. Lee
First and Best Internet Purchase.......2007-09-09
I first bought a copy of this book in 1999 and gave it to my Great-Aunt for Christmas. It was my first internet purchase. She wrote it in for five years and gave it back to me full of family history. Although all of the questions did not apply to her as she never had children and didn't serve in the armed services, she used the extra pages to expand on the questions that did apply to her.
The Story of a Lifetime.......2007-09-04
I found this book to be a pleasant surprise. I ordered it for my Nana. The cover is beautifully done, the pages are gold edged, it's a large book, but not fat, and it asks lots of questions. It divides ones life into sections starting with your memories of your grandparents, then your parents, your childhood, teen years, adult years, school life, home life, fads, movies, music, hobbies, marriage, grandchildren, happiest moments, saddest moments, etc. It covers everything. Unfortunately, my Nana was unable to finish this book before she died of bone cancer. I am still glad I have it. It's something for her great grandchildren to read since they will never meet her.
Lots of great memories to look back on!.......2007-06-07
I just pulled my book out of the closet, as one of my siblings had a question about our great-grandfather. My Dad passed away 3 years ago and I so wish I had the whole book with his comments. It was just a little too late, as he was in poor health, so many of the questions are unanswered. I recommend this book for every grandparent to fill out and give as a gift to their grandchildren. It's priceless!
My Father Loved it!.......2007-05-16
I bought this book for my dad to write down everything about him and he loves it! In fact he recommended it to his brother. A wonderful keepsake for the family.

Customer Reviews:
Gorgeous!.......2007-10-02
The book is beautiful. Can't believe the price...would have paid a lot more for the quality. My husband loved it too! We just celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary. It's a perfect gift for any newlywed or engaged couple.
Great wedding gift!.......2007-08-24
I bought one for my sister and one for myself. It is simple and cute and takes all the hard work out of scrapbooking our anniversaries. Love it!
Great gift!.......2007-08-22
We first received this book as a wedding gift. Each year we fill in the new information. What I really like about it is that it isn't so detailed and time consuming. If you're like me, if it's going to take too much time, it just keeps getting put off until you forget the info. This isn't like that at all. It's nice & to the point.
Great find!.......2007-08-12
This was given to me as a shower gift with some beautiful pens. It's been really a nice ritual to fill it out with my husband every year and to look back and see how the story of our marriage progresses. I am giving it as a gift for the first time and an very excited to see how the recipient likes it.
Our Wedding Anniversary Memory Book.......2007-08-03
I got this book for my husband for our first anniversary. I figured it covered the paper aspect as well as the time aspect of the gift giving. We enjoyed filling out the book together. The illustrations are beautiful.

Perfect Book for a Foster/Adopted Child.......2006-07-03
I am currently writing my childs LifeBook. Without this book for guidance I would be lost. I am lucky enough to have a few photo's of my son at various ages from 1 month to 18 months, including one of the birthmom and him at 5 months of age. This book is helping me tell his story without my emotions getting in the way. This is truely his book and very personal.

Book Description
The Workout Log
This book is designed to help you keep track of your workouts so that you can make every workout count towards your goal! By keeping track of your progress, you can tell right away what works and what doesn't.
The front cover is laminated with a unique Yin and Yang workout design of two people working out within a gear-shift wheel. The author, who is also a professional computer designer, designed the cover. The inside cover has a conversion chart from kilograms to pounds. The first page explains in a user-friendly manner of how to use the book.
The 2nd and 3rd pages are designed to annotate your present body measurements, height, weight and your max on squats and benchpress. The actual "log" portion of the book is designed in an easy-to-use format. The user can track how many reps and sets he did with a particular weight. It even has a section that asks, "How the workout went" and the user can circle
BAD OK GOOD VERY GOOD EXCELLENT (or even) #@!
For those really bad days in the gym.
This book has been in circulation since 1994. It has sold extremely well in the gyms across Canada, but it's time now to get the book on the net and to a larger market.
Customer Reviews:
Perfect for............2007-09-10
This journal is perfect for a bodybuilder. Plenty of room for high volume training; bodypart measurment log; goal setting. This is not a general fitness journal. There are no pages specifc to diet or cardio and there is minimal room for notes. Enjoy.
Perfect for my needs!.......2007-08-23
I must keep track of my workouts in order to track my progress. I have always just used a little notebook to write them out, but this book is great. It is designed very practically for the serious minded exerciser. It is not meant for cardio only, it is definitely for weightlifting.
Simple, Durable, Compact.......2007-08-23
This is a great tool for anyone that wants to monitor their weight lifting progress. This would not be a good tool for someone doing cardio or other aerobic type of exercise. The pages are easy to track your progress, there's space to write your specific workout activity, and you can quickly mark the day, date, and time of workouts. Each page has a section for daily weight, workout level (was it a fair, good, great, or poor workout), number of reps, and sets.
What I really like about this book is the pages are thick and sturdy. You can throw it on the gym floor, keep it in your gym bag, and it will withstand the punishment. It's been a simple and effective tool for me and as soon as I fill this one up, I plan on buying another one!
Awesome workout partner.......2007-06-26
I ordered this book from Amazon after reading a few reviews both on here and other sites online.
The book has everything you need for strength training sessions. There is only a small space at the top of each page to record any cardio training you do, so this might be a deterrent for some people. However, I find it more than adequate as you can just put down, say, that you did a spin class, hour on the treadmill.....etc.
If I lost this book I'd immediately buy another one.
If You Are Serious About Your Work-Outs, Buy This Log.......2007-03-11
This work-out log is very well organized without being "busy". It has room for 6 sets of 15 exercises per day so whether you lift for mass or circuit train this log book has every thing you need. Highly recommended.
Book Description
The perfect companion to The Purpose Driven® Life! Features include Scriptures and quotes by Rick Warren, taken from the best-selling trade book, plus space to record reflections, prayers, and goals while seeking God’s plans for life.
Customer Reviews:
great journal.......2007-10-03
An amazing book as a companion to the Purpose Driven Life. It's a great tool and room for a lot of writing. I love it.
The Purpose-Driven Life.......2007-01-04
It is an informative and celebration of life experience. The Bible versus and explanations helped me tremendously to understand the Bible. The author has great insight into life and the Bible.
Emily Stefanus
This is the JOURNAL, not the BOOK.......2006-05-08
My review somehow got deleted, so...second try.
I really liked this journal as a companion to the book. I spent many afternoons before work reading the book at Starbucks and taking notes in the journal. The journal gives enough space to write most days. Sometimes I did run out of pages, though.
It's peppered with Bible verses from the day's lesson and key points to remember. At the end of each of the semi-blank pages is a prayer focussing on the main points. I found praying these helpful.
All in all, worth the price I paid because it when I read the key points in the journal and took notes it helped to solidify the day's reading in my mind.
A lot of money for a blank journal.......2005-10-26
The book is great -- I've got no complaints about that. The *journal* however, confirms my cynical opinion that Christian literature (heck... any "Christian" product for that matter) is massively over-hyped and over-marketed.
Here's my beef: Every chapter of the journal presents just a single question, then provides a couple of pages for notes. This same question is already at the end of each corresponding chapter of the book. Does anyone really need to drop another ~$10 for that?!
Breath of fresh air.......2003-09-18
I am two days away from finishing this book and I think it is one of the most inspirational and practical books on how to live a life pleasing to God that I have ever read. It's changed my perspective on the Great Commission and my role in helping to save souls; it has inspired me and shown me how to be a better Christian; it's simply a great book and a great guide - - one I will refer to often. I highly recommend this book to new Christians and seasoned Christians who want a deeper walk with God Almighty - with the I Am That I Am.
Book Description
There is nothing quite like the look and feel of embellished books. Unique, tactile and so very pleasing to the eye. Over-the-top embellishment combined with the look of a journal that has been lovingly used for at least a century. Not only does this book have a magnetic wrap but added is a classic red ribbon marker and a memento pouch to store the treasures of a life well lived.
Customer Reviews:
Loved the book, thought the description of the cover was off.......2007-05-19
I bought 3 of these for the women in my family to write down their memories. They all absolutely loved the idea and the book, especially the pocket in the back. I was a little disappointed in the cover. It actually looks to me like the paper for scrapbooking. I thought it would be more realistic. Everyone was happy though and for the price you can't beat it.
Great Gift Journal!.......2006-12-17
I got this journal as a gift. It's a beautiful, hardbound journal with the look of an old-world leather journal (although it has no leather on it). Extra features include a red ribbon in the pages and a magnetic flap closure that folds part-way over the front of the book. It also has a pouch that I just discovered on the inside of the back cover, presumably to hold small momentos (though there is not room for any bulk, due to the way it closes). The nice thing about the hard cover is that it can open and lay flat, which is difficult to do with most flex cover journals. Note that there are lined and unlined versions of this journal.
Love it!.......2006-10-20
I actually love this writing journal. It's comfortable with enough flexability to write quickly, and sturdy enough to not need a table or anything else to lean on.
If you're going to do a writing, and if it's one you know you will want to keep, this journal is one of my favorites. It has a great closing clasp that keeps the pages protected and the look of worn leather without having to use leather. Amazon has the best price for this one, much better than in the stores. It's really a great journal.
The Perfect Journal.......2006-09-19
I purchased this journal as a birthday gift for myself. Formerly I used spiral notebooks for my journaling. I love this journal! I find I am writing more, which is great. Buy this, you will not be disappointed!
A Perfect Journal.......2006-07-08
I can't pass up on the opportunity to sing the praises of PaperBlanks journals. I have not found a more beautiful, practical, or durable journal out there for the low price. With the classic old leather look and the sturdy, crisp paper, these journals look and feel like they should cost much more than they do. The magnetic closure and the inside pouch are nice extras. I love my journal! Every time I open it I feel like I am writing words that will be treasured for generations to come. I imagine a future decendant of mine reading this journal 100 years from now and they are taking a step back in time to pay a visit to me. They will probably think I was a rich man to be able to afford such a beautiful journal. I first started keeping a journal when we learned that we were pregnant with our son. So far in the past 2 & a half years I have filled 2 PaperBlanks journals and I am going to buy a third. My hope is that I will be able to present my children with an entire collection of these journals to keep and cherish. As for the "Faux Leather" complaints... All I can say is, learn a little French. It means fake. Honestly, you can't expect real leather for this price. So study your French and read the reviews before you purchase these journals. Please don't give this journal a poor rating because of your own ignorance. If you want a genuine leather journal be willing to pay the $35+ for one. These journals deserve 6 stars!!!

A Real Treasure For Grandchildren.......2007-09-13
This book allows you to easily leave a legacy for grandchildren. Can include generic info such as geneology, as well as very personal memories/reflections and lots of space for those special pictures you hope would never be lost. It is truly a way to give a gift of love.
Wonderful gift!.......2007-07-11
Having a copy myself, I searched to find another for a newly 'grandmothered' friend- She loved it!
Grandmother Remembers.......2007-07-06
Great book and project for giving to your grandchildren. I have completed one book and plan on filling others. A nice gift for a new grandmother.
special keepsake. .......2007-05-13
My mom bought this book for my grandma to fill out for me when I was a baby. (1983) My grandma liked it so much that she bought six more over the years for my siblings and cousins. She added in as many photos as she could fit and some of the little pictures I drew for her when I was a kid. This book really means a lot to me.
Good Book.......2007-04-12
Good book. I order several for grandparents and great-grandparents. It is hard to find this kind of book. This is the best one I have found so far.

Book Description
Pop culture and psychobabble tell us to make ourselves the center of the universe in order to be happy. Churches have communicated the false idea that God exists to give us all that we selfishly want. Max Lucado reminds us that it's not about us, it's all about God. It is through this shift in thinking that we can truly live an unburdened, happy life.
Book Description

Customer Reviews:
No space for Dads........2007-08-21
This book is great if you are going to be a single mom. I was shocked that there was no space for Daddy. There is an entire page dedicated to the mom's family tree. There is also 3 pages for the mom to detail her career, her favorite things, her goals, her friends...but again nothing that addresses the dad. I would like for them to at least include pages for dad and give people the option of tearing out un-wanted pages.
Love Love Love this book!.......2007-08-07
This book is perfect for recording your pregnancy step-by-step. It is fun to update it after every Dr's visit. I also enjoy the journal pages where there's plenty of room to record your thoughts and feelings. This book has space to keep track of how you're feeling physically and emotionally through your entire pregnancy. I recommend to anyone who's expecting.
Valuable keepsake........2007-07-13
I got this book as soon as I found out I was pregnant. I am not big into keeping journals and doing scrapbooks from scratch. This wondefully laid out and guided "journal" is just right for someone like me. I wrote almost everything about my doctor's visits, put sonogram pictures, then baby shower mementos and later baby's first pictures, and hospital tags. I think while you are pregnant it is a nice way to spend your free time waiting and dreaming of the baby. Once baby is here it is so hard to keep any kind of journals about a baby's first year. At least for me. I am looking forward to flipping through it every year for my son's birthday.
Great book!.......2007-07-06
You won't be disappointed. Well, I wasn't. It's true that there isn't anything for the dad to fill-out, but it's an easy fix.
Good product but not perfect.......2007-05-31
I like this book- the cover is nice, the quality paper is good. However, I wish the different sections were divided more clearly with dividers. Also, I wish there were questions for Dad to fill in. All in all, I'd buy this again.
