Part of our Premium Literary Range: A small, book-shaped notebook for the person who has been a reader for as long as they can remember. Unlike an ordinary rectangular pad, its cover follows a miniature hardback and ribbon motif, while the lined FSC-paper pages give new recommendations and passing thoughts a place to land.
A green hardback with something to say: The little cover is cut around an illustrated green book, outlined in black with pale page edges. Gold-toned words read ‘I WAS BORN’ across the book and ‘TO READ’ on a sweeping cream ribbon. It's an unmistakable declaration for anyone whose next book is already waiting.
80 sheets in a little book of its own: Open the green hardback-shaped cover to find 160 lined pages of FSC paper. Use it for a quick author’s name, an unexpected recommendation or a thought that would otherwise be lost before you reached home. It is the smaller pocket-notebook option when a larger A6 notebook feels more than the moment needs.
For the reader who sends you titles to remember: They message the name of an author halfway through the week and seem surprised you have not already heard of them. This shaped notebook is a knowing small gift for that friend, especially tucked into a paperback. It gives their next recommendation a place on paper while still looking like a miniature book itself.

Product Description

You remember the book you read on holiday, the one that made you miss your stop and the friend who insisted you'd love the ending. Some habits stick. This little green notebook is shaped like a hardback and carries the words ‘I Was Born to Read’ across its cover, with lined pages for all the titles and passing thoughts that deserve to be remembered.

A little book that knows its reader

The shaped outline follows a green hardback, with pale page edges at the top and a cream ribbon sweeping across the front. Gold-toned lettering begins with ‘I WAS BORN’ on the cover and finishes with ‘TO READ’ on the ribbon. It is a small declaration for somebody whose bookshelves have been filling up for years, whether those shelves are carefully arranged or currently three piles beside the bed.

For the titles you meant to remember

A friend mentions a book in passing, or you discover an unfamiliar author in the middle of a browse. The lined FSC-paper pages give you somewhere to jot down the name before it disappears from memory. There are 80 sheets, or 160 pages, in this small book-shaped notebook: more than enough room for a running list of titles, names and everyday reminders. It is a lighter note-taking companion than a larger reading journal when you want only a sentence or two.

A present without guessing their next novel

Some friends send you a book recommendation with no introduction beyond “read this”. They would recognise themselves in the little green cover and its “I Was Born to Read” message. Add it to a paperback for their birthday, or use it as a small thank-you after they have lent you another favourite. The notebook can keep a record of future recommendations without requiring you to choose their next read for them.
