Sidekick Notebook - Hardcover L Shape Notebook (Light Grey)

I had this in my cart for 2 weeks - hesitant to shell out $24.00 for a great idea but essentially "half" of what you'd get from a regular size notepad. But I loved the idea of having a compact work station where my notepad would run up flush to my laptop.The notebook is quality - for sure. It's got a nice hard cover and is bound well. But what they don't advertise and I didn't see any reviews mention is the fact that it's like a hardcover book in the sense that when you open it, it doesn't lay flat but instead pops up from the middle outwards due to the binding.So now, instead of anxiety from a cluttered workspace, I deal with anxiety from an imperfect workspace.
