I just got this as my no-fuss, I'm taking no notes today reader Bible. I picked it up in store after testing out the pages for ghosting and print size. Verdict: I love it.
It's a standard cardboard-covered outreach Bible with a pretty lake side image that wraps around the entire front and back of the book. The pages have a smooth texture

I find ghosting distracting and it irritates my eyes, so I passed over quite a few Bibles that had nice creamy, smooth, typical Bible-stype pages and lovely faux leather covers, but very visible ghosting (much more obvious in Psalms and Proverbs). The most noticeable ghosting for this Bible is the chapter numbers (these are larger and in bold) - they are clearly visible through the page for Psalms, Proverbs and Isaiah but it's not enough of a detractor and is barely noticeable in any other books.
The pages are easy to turn.
This is a double column Bible. The margins are 0. 5cm so there is no room to write. Odd numbered pages have notes at the bottom in tiny print, but the body of the text is a comfortable 9. 5 pt font.
Surprisingly, this Bible does have the Apostles Creed as a feature and a reading plan that takes you through the scriptures that flesh out the Creed. There is a section on how to know Jesus personally and an additional "where can I find it" topical section, which make it a great Bible for its intended purpose - outreach.
I cannot find the 365 day reading plan listed as a feature on the website.
If you're like me, and you're looking for something that is comfortable to read, this is a contender and I'm very satisfied with my choice. It's a little hefty at 650g, but since it's just over 1,000 pages or large print, that makes sense.
A nice, simple Bible for comfortable reading - new and seasoned believers alike.
