Moleskine 18 Months Agenda Weekly 2019/2020, Academic Diary with Hard Cover and Elastic Closure, Sapphire Blue Colour, Extra Large 19 x 25 cm, 208 Pages

Last year I had a planner that was one day per page, and did not like the set up at all, so was very eager to get one this year that worked better- having all the days on one page with a lined page opposite is great for me, I can note in day-specific events and then put general planning, reminders etc. on the opposite page. I thought it would end up being huge, especially at 18 months, but is actually about half way between A5 and A4 and is slimmer than expected, another plus making it easy to carry around. As you'd expect from Moleskine the paper quality is great and there are a number of good planning tools at the start (good calendars), as well as a handy pocket on the back cover. This is definitely going to be my go-to planner going forward

I have bought these diaries for years and they are great. I love the extra large size which is a bit bigger than A5 so an A4 sheet folded in half fits inside neatly and I have more space to write. The lined pages opposite the weekly planner pages are brilliant for lists and notes. The extra lined pages and pocket at the back are really useful as well. The paper is quite thin but I write in pencil so it does not bother me and the ivory colour of the pages is easier on the eye.The most helpful thing for me is that it's an 18 month academic diary. I work in education and it is so useful to have those extra months until Christmas for forward planning after the summer holiday. It saves me having to juggle two diaries in the summer months.

I aim to use this agenda as a daily to do list and diary so that I keep track of what I have done and manage what I need to accomplish. It’s very useful for someone who has regular meetings. You can add notes on each day or on the ruled page next to that week. The only thing I disliked was the colour not being turquoise like the product image suggests. It’s very green!! BUT to be fair, I tried to take a picture with my phone and, in fact, the camera changes the colour of the book. Nothing we can do about that! Still does the job it’s meant to do!

Perfect for me as I don't always get the chance (or clarity!) to write everyday but because there is a good sized extra page alongside each week I can write more of an overall view of the week in general or an indepth thought process when I need more space.The paper is a little on the thin side for using an ink which flows really well but is fine for using a biro style pen, I'm sure it's better for the environment so I'm not complaining as every little helps apparently (not using any paper at all would probably be a better idea in theory though I guess!).Still if you have to use up our precious resources for the sake of sanity like me then I do recommend this diary!

I have just received the 18 month pocket diary and I am very pleased with it. It is compact and well designed. I particularly like the weekly diary pages with a page for notes opposite. The elastic closure is strong and the little pocket of stickers at the back is a fun addition. The text is rather faint, which makes the information pages difficult to read. I would have given it five stars but for the awful packaging which doesn't seem to be recyclable and is much too large (see photo).

Brilliant little diary offering a week to a view, with facing page of lined paper for extra notes - a good balance between size and functionality in my opinion. At 3.5” x 5.5” it slips neatly into an inside jacket pocket and the rounded edges mean it doesn’t catch taking it out of pocket or bag. Handy little expanding pocket inside the back cover too for tickets and receipts, and it comes with three sheets of sticky letters and symbols if that’s your thing !The paper is of necessity quite fine to save bulk, so best to use a biro or pencil to prevent bleeding through. This is the third one I have bought, and will continue to do so as long as they are available - delighted with it

Been using this for 6 months at my work. It is used daily to keep track of tasks and ideas. On one side is a 7-day planner and on the other is a page of just lined paper. It's super useful in my opinion and so far my favourite way of organising tasks. There's some other pages for various useful things and you even get a sticker page!Considering this planner goes in and out of my backpack every day and is constantly used, it holds up really well and there is barely a scratch.Really happy with this one and well worth the money.

This is a useful journal for work or study activities. Quality of the paper and overall design is excellent.The cover stains too easily with marks and doesn't look very professional in meetings. I'm having to wash it multiple times a week.Price is okay but feel it's too high as the cover fails to deliver for me. Will buy again if they update the cover as I'm a fan of everything else.
