planner has very good layout, paper is high quality, very pleased with everything.

I really had some reservations going into this planner after I received it because I was trying to simplify my planning for work and home into two books, and thought maybe I had gone too big or picked something with too much flexibility that I wouldn't be able to use it all. So I wanted to share how I am using the planner and why after just a few weeks I am in love with it in case anyone here is on the fence about it.
Yearly Overview: I just bought a few washi circle dots to track my cycle and stick them over the day of the month it falls on.
Vertical Yearly Overview: I am writing down the days I begin, and end a book. I love to track my reading, and set goals every year, so this is a low pressure place to mark how long a book takes me.
Quarterly Pages: This is probably the most abstract use of these pages but I am diving into astrology as a "study" subject this year, and I love marking the planetary movement here. I use symbols in the spaces for planets and astrological symbols in the small boxes.
Monthly: This is where I am really appreciating the extra space of the B5, while using these pages to track appointments. My monthly overview is one of my most heavily used sections because seeing how busy a month is really helps me pre-plan and make the best use of my time. I am not currently using the outer sections, but I love that they are there if I need them, and plan on using them to make cleaning schedules now that I have better familiarized myself with the book.
Dashboard: This is my least utilized space at the moment while I learn how to use it but I am currently listing goals under The Month's Goals section, and under Habits / Tasks listing any habit tracking I am doing and drawing boxes across the weeks as I complete things. I am not pressuring myself to use all the space because I want to use the Monthly List to write my work sales in later on, and the other spaces organically as I need them.
Weeklies: These pages are what make this planner my planner peace, unicorn, please never ever take this away from me or I'll wither away and decay planner. I have had such a hard time merging my work and home planners in the past because I like to keep my tasks separate but need to reference both all the time. It is just how my brain works, and I am sure it's clinical. I am using the vertical days for work and then, I turn the sidebar into a horizontal weekly planner for my personal appointments and home tasks... IT'S LIFE-CHANGING. To have everything in a two-page spread, but also separate enough that they don't muddle, AND the B5 gives me enough space to do both. No words, absolute genius!
Cosmo Air Light Paper: I knew it was great because I have used it before but I am really loving it even more in this weight. I used to use it with fountain pens, and gel pens but these days I have switched to pencil and it's just as dreamy to write on.
I will 110% already be buying one next year (I am already manifesting that it will be available) because it has already helped me so much these past few weeks. I am even keeping better track in this book, even though I am doing such a low-pressure and highly functional, you don't have to fill every little bit of space, kind of year. Because it's just soooo easy to use.

This is my first B5 planner and I really like the size, design, layout and binding. However, I am torn about the paper quality of this planner. I love writing with fountain pens and use in total three pens, each filled with a different colour (dark purple (Pilot iroshizuku murasaki-shikibu), darker sky blue (Pilot iroshizuku ama-iro) and rose quartz (Pelikan Edelstein Ink Collection rose quartz). The Pilot inks dry well and the typeface is as usual. The Pelikan ink, however, looks different than usual and dries very slowly.

Ich finde das Prinzip und die Machart super - nur 2 kleine Minuspunkte:
1. Das Papier ist für wohl für Kugelschreiber gedacht - Füller und Gelstifte trocknen leider schwer, wobei Füller noch geht - das ist leider nicht ungewöhnlich
2. Samstag und Sonntag teilen sich ein Spalte - auch das ist leider nicht ungewöhnlich
Ich freu mich sehr darauf endlich mit ihm starten zu können.

It will be my planner for 2025.... So far... best feature is binding that lays flat when opened!! love paper and thought put into layout, plenty of planning options. I will know more as I use it in 2025.
