Customers praised this journal as "beautiful" and "well-made" with "cool details" and "fantastic" design. The aesthetic, colors, materials, bookmark, and back pocket received high marks. Customers noted "amazing price point for what you get." However, multiple shoppers identified a typo on the inside front cover spelling "Circle" as "Cricle."
I absolutely adore this journal. I’m using it as a personal journal just because I think the aesthetic gives me a new way to think about things and gives me ideas for things to write about. However, the inside front cover does indeed say “Cricle” instead of “Circle” which I also noticed in the photos here when I zoomed in on them after I looked at my journal. I think it’s kind of a funny quirky thing, but be prepared for that if you end up purchasing this. I’d love to have a correctly spelled version, but of course I still love the journal and think it’s gorgeous. Would still very much recommend though if you don’t mind that detail!
Very high quality, love the colors and the feel of the paper. Giving 3 stars due to the typo in the very first page, saying 'cricle' instead of circle. A shame, seeing as it's otherwise a really good journal!
Came faster than we were told. Great quality, has some cool details and overall an amazing price point for what you get.
I received the journal last week and cannot wait to use it! The detail is quality! The book is well put together with gold detail and ribbon accents. Inside the book the paper is lines and I absolutely appreciate the ribbon bookmark and the envelop in the back to store extras I receive from my DM. I like the added note on the inside cover. I will really enjoy documenting my next campaign with it!
The journal is beautiful, well-made, and the colors, materials, and design are fantastic. The inside sleeve and bookmark are nice touches, and the color/texture of the paper work really well. Will be my new go-to starting in January for lab research (already used 2-3 Cobalt soul journals).
I both can’t wait to use it and want to keep it pristine forever. It’s really beautiful. I’ve had the good fortune to GM a Candela home game and I will use this journal with glee if I ever have the good fortune to engage as a player. Either way, a swell purchase.
A perfect notebook to keep track of some eldritch horrors, plus has a sweet pocket in the back for any GM-made notes/letters
Very beautiful journal
This journal is beautiful. I got it for the Critical Role assignment that I'm currently playing. I'm not taking off any stars for this because it didn't impact my enjoyment at all, but people making future purchases should be aware that the front cover has a slight typo in the "who owns this" style section, reading "Cricle" instead of "Circle". Overall super enjoy this gorgeous journal and highly recommend it!
The paper quality feels good and it looks so nice. I will keep it safe for all my Candela related stuff.
I was very excited to get this having recently started playing Candela Obscura. The cover is beautiful and I do love little details like the headers for each page and the pocket at the back.
I’m knocking off two stars because there’s a glaring typo in the word “circle” on the inside cover where you’re supposed to write your name and circle and I also found it extremely stiff (much more so than other CR notebooks I’ve had) to the point where the first few pages are almost warped.
It’s a shame, because otherwise it’s such a lovely design. I just think quality control let this one down a bit.
Such a lovely and beautifully designed journal for game session notes, that I feel bad using it in that manner as I feel it would be better suited as a diary or regular journal instead. Either way, I'm happy to own this as my Candela Obscura materials continue to grow in collection size. Would love to see a Game Master's version next!
I love the quality and style and have so much I want to fill in it even though it isn’t for a Candela Obscura campaign
