My thoughts:
I enjoyed receiving these journals to review. This was my first time reviewing journals so it was a little different than what I am used to. I usually review books. Being a perfectionist by nature, it was hard for me to have so many fun journals to look at but not finish from beginning to end. I love the vibrant colors and the soft backs of the devotionals. The devotionals began with scripture, a small article to read and then ended with a prayer. Half the page was reading and half the page was writing. I enjoyed them because if I didn't have a lot of time, it was ok. There were other days that I had more time and could dive deeper into it. The devotionals were very versatile. The lettering and coloring journals had a great feel to them. The covers were indented lettering and designs on hard back covers so you could feel and see the beautiful covers. The spine was a type of material which made it nice to be able to lay out the journal and work with it flat. There was also a fun loop that was perfect for placing a pen. I enjoyed the coloring pages and pages for random thoughts. Overall I enjoyed reviewing these journals. It did seem a bit overwhelming at first but I am really amazed at all aspects of these journals - the look of them as well as the content of them...I checked out the
website and am thinking about purchasing some of these journals as gifts.
