I bought this backpack to use for my "morning routine" with the books and journals I enjoy. As well for any travel, with weekends away for hockey and summer cottage time. I love that I can fit my books in, lots of room for a laptop and charger, cup holders in and out, I prefer out when I have a laptop in :) The backpack is a great size, not small as it has lots of storage options including a nice sleek zipper top, that could easily fit more than what I have! I love the black, it is classic and the material feels high quality! I'm very happy with this bag!
