"The beauty of Simple Diary is that is offers a no-pressure style of journaling that transforms the task into an engaging personal challenge."
Valley Magazine, Los Angeles
United States
"Most diaries are something that you would be embarrassed to have somebody find and read. People look back and wonder what they were thinking during certain periods in their lives. With this journal you can look back without shame, and can be inspired to share. And best of all, this diary does not require great amounts of dedication to keep it up. You can fill out a day in a matter of a few minutes and then be back to your life."

"Don't let the cover fool you - this is anything but a traditional blank notebook."

"Simple Diary™ is my response to having too much information and not enough meaning, and needing to remember what made me smile."
Simple Diary™ Volume One – The Cloverleaf Edition, comes in six colors.

"I want to share a few styles that I cannot resist. First up is Keel's Simple Diary, which literally just debuted over at TASCHEN, one of my favorite publishers. I've only had it for a couple of days, but I'm already smitten. I love the bright colors, the totally portable size, the back pocket for stashing...whatever. But mostly I love that it's already filled out for you! This is truly a diary for those who think they have nothing interesting to journal - you're virtually guaranteed to sound utterly witty and brilliant every day. Each page contains a few random questions - multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank...I even spotted a graph. You pick a page - go in order or don't, there's no judge here - answer the questions, ponder the extremely random quote on your page, and move on with your life. I love this because i know once i get started, i won't be able to resist it on a daily basis. This is most definitely going to be my go-to gift this year...stylish, clever, and only $15!"

"This unique mole-skin diary is TASCHEN's first release primarily filled with text which TASCHEN describes as, "a book that provides us with a little comfort in difficult times." Illuminating thought starters, queries and illustrations enable the reader/creator to explore, navigate and document the chaotic adventure that is life."
Examiner.com, Denver
United States
"(Simple) Diary offers a creative way to journal, with a slightly outrageous spin. Art Book publisher TASCHEN's latest release by renowned artist and author, Philipp Keel, is a curious collection of fill-in-the-blanks, multiple-choice, word associations and lists that give readers the "simple tools" to create unique, memorable daily records without all the heavy lifting of blank journals.... Simply stated, in a time of information overload, Simple Diary(tm) is the antidote to the modern age."

"If your summer staycation involves some old-fashioned downtime, why not put aside the Facebook and Twitter and get back to basics. Artist Philipp Keel, international bestselling author of the "All About Me" series, has a new item called "Simple Diary."...Unlike traditional journaling, Simple Diary takes the pressure off by providing boundaries to help the reader/writer get to the essence of his or her day, week or moment."
Newstimes.com, Connecticut
United States
"Simple Diary lives up to its name, turning daily entries into an art experiment...And unlike personal diaries, which are usually hidden away under mattresses or in bedside tables, you won't mind leaving Simple Diary on your coffee table; the book is released by TASCHEN, purveyor of fine art books and fancy hardcovers. But instead of charging upwards of $100, this tome goes for just $15."
Nylonmag.com, New York
United States
"About the same size and shape as a Moleskine notebook, in candy colors, the diaries are full of pages that have been started for people like me. Mad Libs-style, each page has a space for the date, a thought or emotion and multiple-choice prompts. And the bits and ideas that spread out on those pages are actually interesting."
