Profolio Oasis Light Notebook Review
For some reason, I’ve never been a huge fan of the Profolio Oasis notebook. I don’t have anything against it, but it just doesn’t check the boxes I want it to check for a notebook. When I found out that Profolio started offering a different version of that notebook, the Profolio Oasis Light, I wasn’t very excited to try it …

CVS Caliber Composition Book Review
When I first heard that you could buy quality notebooks at CVS (a chain of pharmacy/drugstores), I was skeptical.
