Not recommended
I understand the book is thrifted but the description doesn't match what I have recieved: "A copy that has been read, but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact, and the cover is intact. The spine may show signs of wear. Pages can include limited notes and highlighting, and the copy can include previous owner inscriptions. At ThriftBooks, our motto is: Read More, Spend Less" Most pages are not intact, the book is not in clean condition, they're all used and worn and torn. I got this book for my daughter and the condition is disgusting.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Creativity Inspiring and Fun
The "Wreck This Journal" is a great product because it lets you do whatever creative spark you get when working with the journal. The journal specifically tells you details of what to do on each page that will "wreck the journal" as the title will imply. The journal does give you details about it but it mostly gives you the creativity to do whatever you would like to do with the instructions on the page(s). You are able to interpret with the instructions on each page and it leaves you with you can do whatever you would like with it. (Ex. On one page in the journal, it instructs you to "Color this entire page". Which leaves you to do whatever you would like to do with the page. The journal is for creativity and to do whatever you want with the product. The only main instruction the journal tells you to do is, wreck it!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Good product
I thought I was getting scammed but the book came in good condition, the front pages were just a little folded and had a small stain . The price was good so that doesn’t bother meVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

"Good condition" means journal written in by previous owner.
I figured this would be a bit beaten up. I did not expect that it would have actually have many journal pages filled out by the previous owner (and a little kid). I would not have purchased this if I had known, but it wasn't worth the hassle of trying to do a return.
