I’ve used the Midori five year journal for a year now.

In general I liked it, but I would not buy another one of them. Mostly because I think there are so many more interesting options to it. At the end of last year I decided to change it from being my journal to a gratitude journal, because I wanted to start using the A5 Hobonichi 5 year for the journaling instead. The main reason for the switch was that I thought the Midori was too small, and I really liked the Hobonichi layout.

If I had to get another non Hobonichi 5 year I’d probably pick the Leuchtturm1917 one over the Midori.
