There are a multitude of artistic styles and if one doesn’t speak to me, I don’t want to look at the pictures taking up precious space in my book. In that vein, I’ll have a look at the illustrated versus plain text edition before making my decision. (Sometimes, however, price can factor into the equation.)

I'm anxious to get to them, but then I'm reminded of my TBR pile...but I'm keeping hope alive. LOL I've actually made it a good way through <em>When Wanders Cease to Roam</em> since it's more of a picture-book memoir than traditional book. <strong>@tanabata</strong> - That's a great idea. I'll try to take some pictures of the book--both books--and post them up with my reviews. :D The illustrations are actually quite lovely (the first few that I've seen) and I absolutely <strong>love</strong> the tiger on the cover, which wraps around the spine and back cover. Even if I don't like the story, I will still think the purchase was worth it if only for the illustrations. In fact, I'm giddy over the find. @Sheri – better move it to the top of your TBR pile. :)

How are they? That's bizarre that it was cheaper but worked out well for you. Oh I’d love to see the illustrations in Life of Pi. How are they?
