I have a similar relationship with notes - the act itself being the greater part of value. And I, too, have found myself becoming more of a paper snob over time. The most satisfying notebooks I've found from a paper quality to value perspective are these 'age-bag' notebooks from Clairefontaine (90gsm A5 graph): https://wonderpens.ca/collections/paper/products/center-clairefontaine-age-bag-black-notebook-a5-graph-center https://wonderpens.ca/collections/paper/products/center-clai... The ones I drool over though are the 'bonus' notebooks from The Folio Society: https://mirabiledictudotorg1.files.wordpress.com/2015/03/img_3069.jpg https://mirabiledictudotorg1.files.wordpress.com/2015/03/img...
