The ghosting on the pages was terrible!!

Paper ghosts really really bad

It’s great, except it definitely does bleed through in some spots and ghosting is a major issue

They don't bleed, but the ghosting is darker than the ball point pen that I am currently using

Thought it was supposed to be ghost and bleed proof

If you don’t like ghosting, oh well

Nice notebook, but too much ghosting for my taste

if ghosting isn't an issue for you, this journal is great

Not sure how it's possible to write on both sides of the page because the ghosting is so bad

If you plan to use this journal as a bullet journal and will be using washi tape and other accouterments, the ghosting will probably be fine

Ink doesn't bleed through but the ghosting is just ridiculous

I don’t mind ghosting, and the pages don’t bleed through that easily

Some ghosting but does not bother me at all.

I HATE ghosting

However, if you have a light hand and aren't that OCD, the ghosting really isn't an issue

The ghosting through the pages is annoying and I can't even use my no bleed sharpies which is my pen of choice

The paper has some ghosting but minimal bleed through

G-2 0.7 pens and a fine-tip Sharpie pen, there is some ghosting through the page, but it doesn't bleed through

My only complaint is the "ghosting" of ink from page to page, I've tried several different types of pens and it seems like it's just something to get used to.

Not good for mixed media, markers, or pens that bleed/ghost badly.

I do not like ghosting so rating it as a 3

The ghosting isn't as bad as I was expecting and I push pretty hard

Paper is of high quality and pens show very little ghosting or bleed-through

I love it, works great for me, only issue is ghosting but you will get that with most pens with this book.

Very minimal "ghosting" -- bleeding through of ink

But the dotted lines are extremely helpful and truly do ghost away when I've written or drawn things.

There is some ghosting with my Micron pens (but no bleed-though) and even a little ghosting with my colored pencils.

so you get some ghosting bleed through, but not too bad

The only reason I removed a star is that this notebook is on the more expensive side and that I know the ghosting can be unappealing to some.

There is significant ghosting (when you can see on the reverse side of the page what you've written) that is so distracting as to make the journal not suitable to my purposes

The moleskin has ghosting but not bleed thru with the same pens

Some ghosting but tolerable and dots aren't too visibly distracting

There is some ghosting with stabilo and micron pens but not enough to cause a problem.

the ghosting makes me crazy!

First of all, ghosting doesn’t bother me at all because every notebook does it and i love this journal
