I don't mind them, if it fits in with the book.
Great answers. I can tell you really thought this through! I didn't even think about how helpfull it is in non-fiction books!
Good answer! I agree that most nonfiction books really need illustrations. But I like them in fiction, too. I'm not really bothered if the artist's imagination is different from mine - I still like to have graphics to look at.
We of the same mind I think. I think that for adult fiction, I rather they didn't have pics. Non-fiction needs them. Here's mine.
Great teaser! I haven't heard of that book, but your teaser has me interested. Thanks for visiting my blog today!

Louisa! I love these fictionalized stories. I want to read this!
oh, I never sneak at peek -- I enjoy the journey of reading.
Thanks for stopping by!
I read mysteries for pretty much the same reason I read most books. I enjoy them. I don't try to figure out who dunnit. That doesn't really matter to me, if I need to know, I'll just sneak a peak in the back.
I think murder mysteries, especially, though make death rational. In real life death is often surprising, the concept scares people. In mystery, there is a reason the character was killed, someone was responsible, action can be taken. It's not the unknowable that it can be in real life.
I am not one to be fretting over anyones grammar. Here's mine.
To read is a free choice taking years to develop with hits and not-so-great misses over time. Unless it's required reading, assigned for a class or chosen by a book group, you do always have a choice to make if you want to participate in reading and sharing books. I agree that books have the power to move you. They broaden your reach into those areas both close and far away. The experiences of having a book available to read when waiting has nothing else to compare other than a good conversation or a pleasant view.
Oh, I love Louisa May Alcott! Haven't heard of this particular book, but I'm adding it to my list.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
This is a fantastic teaser. I am adding this book to my TBR pile. I LOVED Little Women. Thanks for sharing!
