Cute and quirky, hopeful and charming, The Isobel Journal nicely captures a bit of what it's like being a creative teen in an ordinary world. I love peering into the journals of other people. This one is more of a scrapbook/sketchbook, and it gave me inspiration to doodle more and juxtapose illustration with photos (they looked like Holga photos in the book - sticking with Isobel's artsy hipster taste).

It's a nice little book, but it only took me about 10 minutes to read the entire thing.

Note: I received a free digital copy of this in exchange for an honest review.
