Narrative:
After landing when filling out the logbook, I noticed that there was an open maintenance logbook entry. It was made by another pilot. I remembered checking the logbooks prior to flight but missed the write-up. I believe what happened was that the page must have stuck together. Luckily the write-up was a small cabin write-up, but it might have been something major. Although I believe the pages must have stuck together and that I was not rushing, a contributing factor was, it was the third aircraft change for that leg.
